Stayed one night. Easy to find - travelled to vis Elizabeth line & district line. Helpful staff that welcomed us whilst checking in & later in the evening on our return. Felt secure with main entry door access system & lift to all floors. Very clean room & bathroom. Excellent comfortable king size bed & excellent bedding. Aptel East was very quiet. Curtains & blind blocked out light to provide a very good environment for sleeping. Shower gel, shampoo conditioner & body lotion provided. Very good towels. Hair dryer & coat hangers provided. Very useful small kitchen area with fridge, kettle microwave, drinking glasses & cutlery. Would definitely stay again.

Really nice penthouse room which faced onto the back of the hotel and away from the busy main road at the front. Super quiet as a result.

I always look for good reviews before booking and Aptel East lived up to its well deserved high score. Lovely staff at reception. Beautifully presented and clean room and en-suite with toiletries and nice towels. Whitechapel station and bus stops close by. We were attending a conference at St Mary's so it was ideal for us. This is a multi-cultural area and it was nice NOT to be faced with the usual chains of retailers. Would definitely return and highly recommend to others.

Great Central London stay

The overall stay was good; the television reception needs improving - channels were scrambling all the time. The location was greet; near 3 major tubes that connected to all major lines; bus transportation was right out the door and the area was hospitable and inviting. Close to a variety of eating establishment, and the neighborhood was walkable.
