For the price the Dover is a great place to stay. Everything is close proximity, trains, pub, shopping centre, food and major attractions. For the price It’s absolutely fine and I’ve stayed there multiple times. Could be a little cleaner as there was toothpaste still in the sink. But I just cleaned it and moved on.

It was an affordable option for our family of 5 in London. Very basic but perfect for our needs as didn’t spend much time in the room. It was hot in the heat wave but there were fans to try to keep it as cool as possible.
