Tiny little room, with a miniscule washroom; not the comfiest bed ever, but OK. I arrived early, well before check-in time, but they were very good about cleaning it and letting me in early. Ideally placed for travel from St Pancras; on transit routes for getting around.

Jennifer

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Cheap and good location, facilities as expected however, struggled to get hot water for the shower (we were told after we needed to leave the water running a long time. Staff were not very friendly and made us feel like we were an inconvenience for simply checking in! Facilities said luggage storage is available, it was but it was just left in the corner of the breakfast room - we appreciated it all the same. By far the worst thing (and the main reason for low scores and why we will NOT return) was that during our breakfast a staff member cleared his throat loudly and then spat into the bin next to the coffee machine - disgusting ! He then continued to clear tables ! We left immediately!

Clean, a little dated but very cheap.

Great value. Staff were fantastic. Room was very basic but clean and all you need for a brief stay. I was only sleeping there, much better than anything near this price (multi occupancy hostel, no thanks). Perfect for my one night to avoid the replacement bus service and be fresh for work in the morning.

Its a decent hotel at quite center of london. For a decent price. Much better than staying at the airBnB or hostels. Its close to chancery lane tube station and has plenty restaurants nearby. The breakfast is okayish but the hosts are very hospitable.

Sarah

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Property was in a good area and accessible to the place we wanted to get to and from. The interior of the property is very dated, which didn't bother us, but the room was very small for 3 people, and the bathroom was extremely small. The pictures online of the rooms dont show how dated and small it all is. The room was so warm as well and had no ventilation, really. Cleanliness of the room is also very basic. Not sure we would re-book this hotel again.

You get what you pay for. The beds were clean and comfortable, the decor is dated and the buildings have a musty smell. The staff were polite and helpful. Breakfast was interesting and certainly not a continental but toast and cereal was available. The area for eating was very cramped and small but tables were cleared quickly and efficiently. Location is very central and very quiet. I would stay again due to the cost and the comfortable beds of the beds.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Staff were friendly and helpful. My room was on the second floor and two doors down from reception. There was no lift which was a problem for me but staff did help with luggage. There was a deep step up into the bathroom which wasn't clear in the booking information. My room had tea making facilities but no milk. Breakfast was included but this was very basic - a couple of choices of cereal and a loaf of bread to make your own toast

Inexpensive for stay in a very convenient and safe London area. Hotel small, several floors but no elevator, breakfast standard continental of juice/cereal/rolls/coffee. Staff very pleasant and helpful. I would stay there again if we had a room only one floor from the entrance.
