Travel to Barking

No AC. Carpets are dreary. Bathroom is an afterthought and smelled humid. Great location - but you get what you pay for.

The staff were excellent and were always available and the cleanliness was first class. The room was quite a good size and the bed super comfortable . The modern bathroom and shower were great and the breakfast was beautiful.

London Lodge Hotel is super convenient, but tucked away in a quiet neighborhood, which made it a great place to relax in the evening. Our room (two single beds) was cozy. The only minus I'll give is that there were no outlets by the beds for recharging phones, etc. They were across the room. We stayed 6 nights, and it got quite hot in London, but our room had an A/C (splitter) so we were quite comfy. The staff was attentive and helpful, and secured us a taxi back to Heathrow given that the Piccadilly line was out of service that day. The surrounding neighborhood is charming, and there were plenty of cafes and pubs to pop into for snacks or coffee.

Everything was good-the location, staff, amenities, etc. However, last morning electricty to the telephone, coffee pot, A/C, alarm cl;ock and 1 wall socket didn't work.
