Probably unbeatable value.

You must do something about that shower head. Limescale blocking shower heads, and killing off washing machines, is part of life for most British people. If nothing else, a manager might once per month unscrew each shower head, poke each hole with a pin and re-assemble. Double room in the sense that one could just about walk past the double bed, but there was also a desk and a nice chair, albeit the room was not sufficiently wide for the chair to fit alongside the bed (helpful for my CPAP machine). Nice fitted carpet. Good en-suite toilet, wash and shower room. Cleanliness: excellent. Television and WiFi worked well. At about £27 per night, just inside the Central Zone and in a posher part of London, probably unbeatable value. Co-op mini-supermarket round the corner very friendly.

Excellent value and conveniently located

This hotel is excellent value in my opinion and has a friendly and helpful receptionist and i was very happy with the room i stayed in for 2 nights and it was ideal for me as it's just a few minutes wall form Earls Court tube. And the common areas and my room in the hotel were very clean and my only disappointment was that i was unable to get the wifi to work on my laptop and also the shower head was a bit blocked with limescale so it wasn't a very powerful shower but overall i was very satisfied for my short stay there.

Great budget hotel

Overall really good stay. Room and linen was clean but dated, happy to compromise for the price. There was a lift which a lot of these old buildings often don't have. The location was very close to Earls Court station as well as food and shopping.

The property was extremely cheap and I had a tiny room in the hotel, so my review does not necessarily hold for other rooms. The room was adequate and just about in-keeping with the very low price I paid. The staff were lovely.

I like that this hotel is so close to a major tube stop on the Piccadilly line so it’s easy to get to. It’s on a very quiet street. It’s a great value for the price and it does all the basics well! I love staying here whenever I’m in town!
