A good choice

A tiny room with no air conditioner working. Very clean though and quiet along with its great location. Marvellous breakfast. Good WiFi. Strange system for hot water in the shower (I think it was broken). Excellent price.

It’s cheap and in a great location. The bed sucks. The elevator is probably a death trap. It worked in a pinch but I would not recommend staying here more than one or two nights.

This is exactly what you would expect for £65 in this part of London. The bed was comfortable and everything worked, but the room was dated and finished cheaply, for example no latch on the bathroom door to hold it closed and plastic guards on the wall corners. The lift was also a little unpredictable so I'd recommend using the stairs! It's good if you just want somewhere reasonably priced for a night's sleep, and the staff were polite.

Staff miserable when they finally decided to greet you. Hotel tired and shabby. Carpets stained and trip hazard. Dust hanging off ceiling above toaster in buffet area. Room not as described in website and pictures differ. Lock falling off balcony door. Very hot room so I asked if air con can be switched on, they said all switched off for time of year. Ceiling fan too noisy to sleep at night. No lock on bathroom door. Hairdryer didn't work so they replaced with a normal one. Went down for more milk sachets...said they have no more until morning as housekeeping has the key. Finally persuaded them to get a jug of milk from the bar.
