London trip

I was moved to the Crown Plaza re maintenance work being carried out at Holiday in Express Old Street. Lovely hotel however this added 1hr each day for travelling over to Shoreditch on the tube which I was trying to avoid using. The hotel was clean however I was quite amazed that they only clean, replenish tea/coffee/water if you ask! this is not done on a daily basis.

Judt about ok

This was ok, quite standard. The beds were not too great and the pillows uncomfortable, so I was unable to get the best of sleeps. Cleanliness was good in the communal areas and the rooms were ok. I assume due to lockdown the rooms don't get cleaned between stays. It's not a big deal, but it means things like cups aren't cleaned, there's not enough tea/coffee for the stay. I've stayed twice since the relaxation of lockdown, I'll probably try a different hotel when I'm back in a couple of weeks.

Family stay

Hotel was in a great location beside underground. Hotel itself was very clean and comfortable and the breakfast was very good. The rooms were clean and the bed was very comfortable. The sofa bed is only suitable for kids as it was spring and not comfortable. The bathroom was clean and modern and the shower excellent with brilliant pressure. Staff were very kind and the kids were treated to a small packet of sweets after breakfast each morning. Would recommended for great value and location.

Basic yet good, would recommend

Exactly as expected. The room was tidy and the bed comfortable. The bathroom with a shower was very nice. The breakfast was tasty and there were some vegan options available. The location was great, tube station and Sainsbury’s are right around the corner, and the neighborhood has amazing restaurants and bars. Would recommend.

This hotel is in a convenient location to the Old Street tube station, and is in an area of the city full of young people. The front desk employees were very helpful, and the breakfast in the morning is good. The housekeeping could be better but was sufficient. This is a good place to stay if you plan to be out exploring the city and want a comfortable place to stay but don't need a lot of amenities.

Great location and that's the only nice thing I can say about it. The staff were miserable. Nobody smiled. Cigarette smoke filtered into the room. The room we were given on our first night was just absolutely gross (like it hasn't been cleaned for months, especially the bathroom). The second room had a kettle that was dirty. The sofa was disgusting. And even though we were on the 4th floor we could still hear people on the street yelling, fighting or laughing, which made sleep close to impossible. The list goes on.
