This is a perfectly okay hotel for the price. Sure the room is tiny and the elevator never works but that is standard in London in this price range. The bathroom was clean, there was plenty of hot water for the shower and the continental breakfast was fine. The staff are friendly and helpful and the hotel seems well maintained overall. This is a basic budget hotel. If you come with realistic expectations you will be okay with it. If you want large rooms or luxury you will be unhappy.

Not at 8.4!
Well unfortunately it was not great! First night the windo started leaking and drip, drip drip on the carpet it kept me up! Rain should stay outside. It was also fairly smelling of a damp moldy old room. It looked like a lot of water damage has been going on. This is not just a one time thing! The ladies at breakfast serving were delightful, and it was truly a fun unique experience. The desk lady during day was so kind and apologetic. Also bed was clean and comfy, but dont turn on lights, walls are filthy, cobwebs galore in seating room. Outside was so noisy. Sounded like you were in the traffic. Lift was broke, bathroom in lobby was out of order.... honesty i dont understand who rated this one in the 8's? Except for location, and kind people, and breakfast, this is a flop.

I am basing my review on the value for money for a London hotel. Good check in process with friendly staff. Room was ok for a short stay; tea & coffee and basic toiletries provision (24 hr tea & coffee facility also at reception). Bed was a bit soft for me but ok and room was reasonably clean. TV was very small, but minor issue.

The room itself wwas very small but since I was only staying for one night I didn't care. The room was neat and tody, and the bed/pillows was very comfortable. However, the room could really do wth some new paint, skirting boards and windowsills. The paint was scuffed and marked and looked dirty honestly. The bathroom was surprisingly nice however there was a ump of hair in the drain.

The goods are friendly staff and that the hotel is located in a nice area, near an underground station, there are many dining options near by and you can walk to the Kessington Palace, Royal Albert Hall, National History Museum, etc. The cons are that the hotel is old and not good taken care of. Our room has a mold odor, the bathroom didn’t look immaculate, the bed clothing too old and one size of the bed was next to a wood piece that made me afraid that I could hit myself with while sleeping if I’d slept on that side. Breakfast was ok but only 1 option of eggs: boiled which is not my favorite. Coffee, toast and orange juice were good but the ham and the cheese didn’t impress me. Fruit was good.
