Cosy 2 BDR flat 5 min to ExCel free Car Parking
First Impressions
I’ll be honest — Cosy 2 BDR flat 5 min to ExCel free Car Parking isn’t the most glamorous name, but don’t let that fool you. This four-star property on Wesley Avenue in London is one of those finds that just makes sense when you’re actually here. The building itself is pretty typical for Newham, but there’s something reassuring about having your own space with that promised parking spot right there.
The Space
Walking into this two-bedroom flat, you get that immediate sense of relief — it’s genuinely cosy without being cramped. The main room has decent natural light, and honestly, after staying in so many London hotel boxes, having a proper living area feels like such a win. The kitchen is functional rather than fancy, but you know what? It’s got everything you need if you want to grab groceries from the local Tesco instead of eating out every meal.
Location Reality Check
Here’s the thing about Newham — it’s not central London, and that’s actually the point. You’re genuinely five minutes from ExCeL, which means if you’re here for an event or exhibition, you can literally walk there without dealing with the Tube madness. The area feels properly residential, with that mix of families and young professionals you see in East London neighborhoods that haven’t been completely gentrified yet.
Getting Around
The car parking situation is honestly brilliant — I mean, free parking in London? That’s practically unheard of these days. If you’re driving in from outside the city or planning day trips, this place suddenly makes perfect sense. Custom House station is walkable too, so you’ve got DLR connections when you do want to head into central London. The journey to Canary Wharf takes about fifteen minutes, which isn’t bad at all.
Why Guests Love It
Look, this isn’t going to wow you with marble bathrooms or concierge service, but it delivers on exactly what it promises. The 7.4 rating reflects that — it’s solidly good rather than spectacular, and sometimes that’s exactly what you need. You get space, you get parking, you get a proper kitchen, and you’re not paying Zone 1 prices for the privilege. If you’re visiting ExCeL, working in Canary Wharf, or just want a London base that doesn’t cost a fortune, this flat actually works really well.
You'll need to let the property know in advance what time you'll arrive.
