Whilst my room was small, which I knew when I booked, this hotel was decent for me to stay for a night.
I will admit the walls are rather thin and I could hear the couple down the hall…how do I put this…copulating rather loudly.
The staff was friendly enough and check in was quite prompt.

Hotel is located close to many London attractions.
We stayed in triple room with private bathroom.
The room a bit smaller and each guest only receives only one towel, there was no bathroom foot mat provided to us.
Staff was helpful and accommodating
Nice little place with a very convenient location. This was all I needed for my little adventure within London.

Estancia correcta. Solo limpian la habitación si lo pides. El canvio de toallas también lo tienes que pedir. En general está bien por el precio que pagas.
It was very difficult to access the downstairs family rooms with a young disabled person.
The staff at the front counter really do need some training in customer service.

Great location, need to make sure people staying know it’s hard to get luggage up the stairs if heavy

The two nights I spent were in a basic room with washing facilities nearby. This was quite adequate for my purpose. The room and bathroom were clean and reasonably comfortable. Staff were polite and available.

No one there to check me in. Heater needed plugging in and had no thermostat -
Room tiny but clean
Very small hotel within walking distance to Victoria Station. Bathroom is tiny as well. Front desk staff needs work on customer service skills. But otherwise a decent hotel for the price and location.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Our room didn’t have a toilet which we didn’t know. The toilet was in the basement and we were on the third floor so that was super annoying. No proper shower, just a tub with a shower hose so you go the entire bathroom soaked every time you took a shower. There was a sink in the room but it was disconnected from water. The room was TINY and with our suitcases it was claustrophobic in there. The good things about this hotel is that they watched our luggage for free since we arrived early before check in which allowed us to go explore the city luggage free. There’s a Sainsbury just a block away and the Victoria tube station is less than a half mile away.
The property was ok. The carpet is stained and worn in places (in some parts down to the thread). The shared bathroom is in a small coved room. There is a bath (that leaks) and a shower head (but no wall attachment so you would have to hold it up above your head, if you can)
The room itself was ok. Comfy bed. Tv screen was crcked in 2 places...not that i was planning on watching tv but it would ja e been nice if it worked
The apartment is so cold, and the radiator don´t work.
we were getting 2 electrical radiator, which was not helping because the apartment were to big, for such a small radiators.
The Apatment were not ready when we arrived 16.45 and when we returned as agreed 45minutes later, they were still cleaning.
the bed linen, was missing for the last bed, and when they returned they came with 2 sheets, no linen, so it´s was better than nothing.
the refrigerator in the kitchen was not working, and the one which where placed instead were the freezer box not working.
This must be the worst hotel in London. Rooms, if I can call them so, are small and dirty, staff was literally asleep at the job and had to bang on the desk to wake him up. I got it through Expedia, but next time I will avoid it and proceed to book flight and accommodation separately using other services.
