Comfortable stay

Felt like I was staying in someone’s house. Felt safe. The bar downstairs was noisy a couple times. We had a bathtub, would have preferred shower.

The property is in a quiet area of Wapping, which is already a very quiet London neighborhood. The room was nicely stocked with amenities, and staff were eager to please by replacing everything on a daily basis. The bed/linens were clean and comfortable. We had some difficulty with the TV, but, for the most part, it was fine (and, after all, we weren't there to watch TV.) If you stay at Dockers Inn, the only think you need to know is that the pub beneath parties on Friday and Saturday night, including DJing and singing. This appeared to end promptly at midnight. It wasn't a problem for me; I slept through it. My wife, on the other hand, was up until midnight. Honestly, considering the deal that you're getting by staying here, it's a minor inconvenience. And it was a GREAT deal.

Room needed a little maintenance. Bed had a hole in the springs, had to turn around to sleep on. Paint was chipped, missing fixture in bathroom. It was annoying that we had the ground floor suite that exits right on the the patio for the pub. You get people smoking and drinking right outside your room.

Standard of bad inn

The inn has a good location: close to subway, many pubs and restaurants, 20 min walk to Tower bridge, in a quiet residential area. The bed is great: big and comfortable. The staff is not friendly. The pub of the Inn is not cosy, smelled like toilet with some weird people visiting (drinking vodka). I went to the one 4 min walk from the inn and loved it a lot more. The cleanliness of the room is not great: I had a candy package inside the radiator, hair in the bathroom, the porridge pack was open and there were ants on the cupboard where it was. Although the bathroom is very modern, the fact that you need to hold the shower and can't fix it is bad. The water gets all over the bathroom and it's not convenient. But worst of all - I came in the room at 10pm hoping to get some rest, but the music from the pub was EXTREMELY loud. You have a feeling of siting inside the pub and cannot enjoy TV or conversation. I asked when the pub closes and the receptionist said 10, but the music was on until past 11. I read the reviews of people staying in King room that the sound is manageable, but in the Family room (facing the other side) it is not! General sound insulation is bad: you hear people walking around the rooms, I had a ventilation by the window which was also making sound all night long. I am totally not a light sleeper, but I was waking up from noise all night long.
