East Ham is certainly not Mayfair, but our hosts were OUTSTANDING, even offering to share their evening meal with us. Their attention to detail on our arrival was just amazing, and they did everything they could to ensure our brief (one night) stay was comfortable and pleasant.
Their local knowledge of the bus routes was great, as the bus we had planned to take in the morning would have taken 40+ minutes to our destination, and the one recommended (a few minutes walk away) took less than 20 minutes. That is now in my little black travel book!
There was little on the downside - East Ham is, shall we say, "lively" on a Saturday night, but the house is far enough from the main road to be quiet. Also, the bathroom was a little small and in need of a freshen up, though along with the rest of the house, was clean as a whistle.
We would gladly stay again when visiting the London Stadium for an event - reasonable price, comfortable bed (better than we have at home!!) easy to get to and most of all, lovely hosts.
