“Frances St House strikes me as a practical choice for budget-conscious travelers who prioritize a functional base over luxurious amenities. Its location near Woolwich stations and Custom House simplifies getting around London, while the self-check-in and hands-off service model offer a degree of independence. For a straightforward stay in a bustling area, it seems to offer a reasonable option, assuming potential pricing discrepancies are clarified beforehand.”

mixed bag, some issues noted

dusty roombroken window
I didn't love how easily i could hear everything outside. It really wasn't very soundproof at all. the room also felt a bit dusty and could have used a deeper clean. the window didn't close properly. I had the radiator cranked up the entire time just to stay warm. plus, the wi-fi was spotty at best. Streaming anything was a total pain.

There's a tesco express conveniently located next door, and it provided all i needed for quick meals. i did notice a chip shop downstairs. You can smell it in the hallway downstairs, though it wasn't too noticeable in my room.
