The staff is really friendly and the price was cheap. Depending on a room location it might get loud at night with traffic outside a window and very thin walls and ceiling. It's good for a short stay

Friendly staff, but for the price of the stay, the room and shared bathroom wasn‘t really worth it.
After a very horrible stay at a dodgy hostel I found this place online . It was amazing lovely views and good location for me . I will definitely cone back .
Lovely stay. Got a nice room with balcony on the 4th floor and views over London. The staff was friendly. I would recommend this place for staying a few days. It's located close to Stepney Green tube station and there are a few nice restaurants nearby as well as a couple of supermarkets (Sainsbury's and Tesco). I think this place offers good value for money.
We stayed here qhile coming to a concert so needed somewhere just to leave our belongings and sleeo for the night. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly and had a 24 hour call service if there were any problems. Was about a 5 minute walk to the closet train station, tube station and bus stop so very easy to comunte anywhere. Will most definitely be staying here again :)

Good location but very basic hotel
Cheap & good location for gig at Olympic Stadium. Very basic & room was very hot so could have done with a fan or something. But ideal & good price for a one night stay.
Property is not bad! If you just need a safe space to lay your head then your good.

Stay was good , area is average, . City Gate Guest House , they are good at taking moneyfor stay . But they ask for a deposit on the day , and say they will refund you . But ater a week now still no REFUND, Very poor beware .
The rooms are small, the internet is shocking, Tv doesn't work. The floorboards are so loud that anytime anybody moves you can hear it, the walls are paper thin. No sinks for water. Would not stay again.
