The room was good. The bed was very uncomfortable though and there was dust and bugs on the headboard. I booked this for the free parking but for 30 rooms they only have 3 parking spaces And a possibility of another 5 on the opposite of the road. Of course all spaces were taken so I couldn't park there. Staff were very helpful.

Unfortunately, my experience wasn’t great. The room was small and stuffy, with stains on the carpet and no fan or AC . The only good thing was that it was cheap and close to the train station.”

Rooms felt dirty. Strange characters hanging around outside/ at reception.people seemed on drugs. One lady falling up the stairs. They had to reset our room key everyday for security but they made up some story about how your mobile phone affects the key card. Not a family friendly hotel. I was with my partner and did not feel safe

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
I thought ilford as an area was awful, didn’t feel safe at all, got to reception and had to pay £100 deposit for any damages which I didn’t know about, thought that was a bit extreme. Got into room and the heat hit me straight away, small, dark, dingey room with the smallest window which barely let any air in. Noisy in corridors, broken shower. Didn't sleep because of the heat and being bitten by something throughout the night. Hated it and won’t stay again.

First of all the woman at the counter was not helpful, she didn’t have answers to basic questions. I wasn’t even given a bill or receipt on leaving, my security deposit hasn’t been credited to me till now even after so many days of checkout, what kind of hotel is this that it takes the security deposit for so many days and there is no refund till now. Anyone not willing to lose their money should not book this hotel. The staff especially the female ones seems very unaware, unhelpful and clearly not trained for hospitality. Where is my security deposit?

I stayed at lucky 8 with my brother for my birthday for 2 nights. I had an absolutely terrible time! The room was filthy and It had silver fish under the sheets! Absolutely disgusting and when we were shown towards the room I asked the staff member Steve if they had condiments and shampoo etc and he replied saying 'we do not provide condoms' here' I was outraged as he knew it was my brother in the twin room I booked with my brother. There were rats outside. People screaming and shouting. The room stank especially the bathroom. And ontop of it all they took £100 deposit on top of the payment for the stay and was told it would be given back after 36 hours after our stay, and it hasn't been reembersed after over a week ago! Do no stay there under any circumstances. Disgraceful

Disliked: Amenities
This place had very few accommodations. Pillows were basically nonexistent. The Wi-Fi never worked service for a cell phone did not work once you were in your room meaning you needed the Wi-Fi, which did not work. Also, upon checking in the front desk did not let me use my card And made me walk to an ATM to get an exchange rate and turn in cash. Checking out they tried to keep the cash and told me it would go back on my card that they did not let me use.

I unfortunately spent 3 years living in temporary accommodation and this hotel clearly houses people in need of temp housing. Room was meant to be superior and it was far from that! Had a random fridge in my room that was too big to fit anywhere! Noisy all night with banging doors and trains. They continuously take preauthorisations for rooms and security deposits that can take up to 5 days to return. States there is parking ?? Yes 3 spaces that were continuously filled not bad as there are 20 rooms. Avoid Avoid avoid
