TV didn’t work and flush on toilet didn’t always work… these were the only downsides though, it didn’t ruin our stay and we would return.

Thank you for a comfortable stay
I had a couple of issues with my key card but they were sorted quickly. All staff were friendly and helpful. While I thought initially the DLR noise would bother me, the service finished as I was going to sleep and wasnt running at that weekend so i actually slept really well. Pool, steam room and sauna all really lovely

The room was unbearably hot in the summer, with no air conditioning and no fan provided. I had to specifically request a fan, which was very inconvenient. On top of that, a deposit was taken and never refunded. To make matters worse, the receptionist I dealt with was extremely rude.

Stay at Ark
The room was very small
Possibly the smallest shower room I’ve ever seen
But they are very clean and the staff are very friendly and welcoming
You can hear the DLR go past but it’s not too loud really
Certainly didn’t stop me sleeping

We had an excellent stay, Mohammed greeted us so kindly upon our arrival, the property was situated in a perfect location for commuting to the city, but had a suburban feel (great running), and the building itself is so nicely designed. Thanks for a great stay!

Not great
The room was dirty on arrival , it had someone half drunk coffee on the side which was still hot and the kettle was still hot meaning they had only just left the room .
There was makeup wipes across the kitchen side and used tissues and in the toilet it was the same .
The TV remote did not work asked for a replacement which also did not work , didn't bother complaining about the room as didn't hold much faith as couldn't get a remote right so tidied myself
