In our room, the bed had a large urine stain. The mattress was so thin one could almost put a foot straight through. We contacted the Front Desk immediately and they said they were full and would do nothing more to assist us. We could not go searching London for a hotel at that hour, so we slept on the floor. The hotel also refused to issue a full refund for the stay. Definitely NOT a 9.0 stay!

Room was adequate. Tiny and very budget but it was clean. Issue was during check in - my mother and son were with me and I wanted to leave their luggage in my hotel room because they were staying in a different hotel and had a few hours before their check-in. The hotel employee would not allow me to put their luggage in my room and insisted that their luggage stay out in the reception area and that I pay a fee for him to watch it. He stated that if the hotel allowed people to store luggage in their hotel rooms then everybody would do it. I’m not sure what business it is of the hotel what I choose to keep in my hotel room that I have paid for. This is a ridiculous policy.

I stayed in a standard double room. It was great if you are just looking for a basic room for a short say. Very clean and the staff were polite and helpful. The shared toilet was very narrow and cramped, would probably pay the extra for the en suit room next time.
