Basic - very basic but friendly
The first disappointment was lugging my bags up a flight of stairs to reception and then another flight up to me room. The room has the bare minimum of everything, but the bed & sheets were clean, bathroom spotless. However i did sleep in my socks as the carpet was quite dirty! Obviously people coming & going with muddy boots. The TV was nice with lots of program choices. Internet connection was better that a 5 star hotel. Really fast. The staff were very very friendly. Such nice and helpful people. It made all the difference.

Bargain accomoation
Nothing to write home about and does what it says on the tin. Friendly staff. Room okay. Would I rush back probably not but if you're after a last minute booking its fine. I stayed in the satellite accommodation about half a mile down the road. Car parking a nightmare.
“Ideal for students & couples requiring a quick stay”
I had the pleasure of staying in Barking B & B hotel the past couple of nights. My experience was simply great. For people looking to save on hotel expenses & yet see most of London, this place is a wonderful option. It might lack the facilities you’d expect from a fancier hotel but they have everything to ensure max comfort. If you have luggage with you, one of the staff members will assist you in carrying it up to your room which makes up for absence of lifts. My room had a spacious double bed, a closet, drawers chest, a small TV screen, fridge & an attached bath; all needed amenities. Cleanliness was spot on as well. Reception staff was polite & humble. On top of that, tube station is a couple of steps away. I highly recommend to people coming to Barking, looking for a relaxed stay on a light pocket:)
DO NOT STAY HERE!!
Me and my partner recently went for a weekend away in London. We arrived in London late on a Friday night around 11pm. We found the hotel fairly easily and made our way into the reception area which actually didn’t look too bad. We were greeted by a receptionist, an older gentleman in scruffy clothes (no uniform). We were then told to follow him up a flight of stairs on which the carpet was coming off and down a narrow hallway with wallpaper peeling off it. At another reception desk with a thick layer of glass between ourselves and the reception, we were told to show our ID and sign a form. Thankfully my partner fefused to sign the form before we had seen the room. We were then shown to our room. On our way there we past other guests and saw what could only be described as drug abuse and prostitution... The room was absolutely tiny and was essentially a dirty mattress on the floor, with a shower, a sink and a toilet that were all covered in urine and hair... Safe to say we left the property as soon as we could. This is not a hotel or even a hostel it is a half way house for the homeless, drug dealers and prostitutes, do not make the same mistake we did, the pictures on all of the websites are absolutely nothing like the property is in reality! DO NOT STAY HERE!!!
