Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Guests often appreciate the good-sized rooms at The Ship Inn, which include useful amenities like a sink and, in some cases, a fridge for keeping drinks cool. The pub downstairs is a popular spot, especially for pizzas, and the location is convenient for exploring, with easy access to the DLR and attractions like Canary Wharf, reachable via the nearby tunnel under the Thames to Greenwich; some guests have noted the carpets could use some updating. With clean sheets and towels, many find it offers great value, especially considering its location in London.

some issues

carpet stains locked wardrobe

the pub had fantastic pizza which i enjoyed.

the room was not in top condition. the carpet had stains, and the wardrobe was locked, preventing me from hanging my clothes. also, there was no cup available for coffee in the morning, so i couldn't have a hot drink.
