Hotels near London City Airport - LCY, London

The apartment was decent and cleanliness was good. The main thing that ruined it was the broken heater in the bedroom which was then replaced by the friendly host however the new heater stopped working an hour later. Another bad experience was that there was no hot water in the bathroom whereas the kitchen sink had very hot water. Host was pretty clear that if kitchen sink has hot water bath and shower will be hot however my family and I all had ice cold showers on cold winter day because of course there was absolutely no hot water!!

The apartment is spacious for 2 people, the bed was very comfortable. The kitchen was not very clean, there was no toilet paper, and it was a strong smell of mold. One of the sliding doors of the cupboard is broken, so one can not benefit from the full space inside it, but it was not a problem for us, for such a short stay. The bathroom was very cold, the heating system is not very efficient in the bathroom and kitchen, but very good for the rest. The kitchen and bathroom would benefit from refurbishing and some updating. The cooker is old and quite dirty and there is no microwave. Also, there were no towels, so if you plan to rent this kind of accommodation consider bringing your own. There was no lining for the couch in the living room, so if you bring extra people, consider bringing that too.

Barking, although recognised as a deprived area of London, is a pleasant working class suburb of London. The streets were clean and during the day I was happy to see that the shops were all used and open for trade. The people were approachable and friendly (although as in most places there are bound to be others that are not). I went to a local cafe and had something to eat and drink, it was surprisingly cheap and good quality. As it was New Years eve, I had to return to the area in the early hours of the morning, however, felt safe doing so, (again just be aware of the surroundings and stay alert, but this would be the same in any area). Overall, I found Barking a lovely down to earth area.

I had several allergies due to not change from the previous guest bed sheet all of my body is red , there is no clean there at all, its awful and disappointing i ask a view time to change the bed sheet, pillow towel but not helping me i will now going on doctor i can prove that this is from the bed sheet because there is not change and all my body now is infected my bff also get this,

This place is heaven. You are overlooking the Thames river, in addition in a most lovely home. The furniture is beautiful in the room and bed super comfortable. Joshua and Olu are so kind and responsive. You really feel home.

Made a booking at this property for 3 people (went with them based on the good reviews I saw). Card got charged, Got a confirmation that the booking was all confirmed. Arrived at the property - though I was not sent any arrival emails or information on how to check-in to the property, I believed all was already arranged, because I have never had issues booking accommodation through booking.com. Got to the property, no front desk, called the number of the property showing on the reservation, and I was told my booking was cancelled. I was shocked and asked them why was I not informed beforehand, no reasonable response was provided. Travelled with my wife and kid - we had no alternatives. I have reached out to booking.com, but they said the property is not responding to their emails or calls. That means until now, no apology has been given, neither has the money charged from my card being refunded. This calls for a chargeback though, but had to drop this review before going further.
