Satisfactory Experience Near the ExCeL
comfortable bedpool accesspoor air conditioninginsufficient water
The hotel provides convenient access to the ExCeL center. The room featured a generously sized and comfortable bed. I found the pool access beneficial after a long day. Hotel is close to several transport options.
The air conditioning system performed poorly. The room temperature remained too warm even when set to the lowest setting. I found the supply of only one water can for two guests to be insufficient.
