Do NOT stay here
This should NOT be listed as a hotel. Please don’t spoil your trip. It is traumatic in every way. I checked in, 5 minutes of trauma and checked out. If you over sleep this slum could be a cure… but you may need a good therapist. Just around the corner are some well known hotels, cheaper and you know what you are getting. I have never left a bad review of a hotel. Looking at previous reviews… the lift still is out of order, don’t drink the water! still a dosshouse etc.

Used to love staying…but hotel about to be renovated. No Wifi. No milk in room for coffee. No light bulbs in bedside table lamps. Waited over ten mins for warm shower water…Construction noise from 9.00am one day. For the last ten years I’ve been staying at the wonderful Mayflower when arriving from Canada to uk (twice a year). For my next trip I will have to consider other hotels.

It is a dosshouse not a hotel. You sold that to me as a hotel with breakfast but they told they had not breakfast for two years and you owe me ten breakfast, something between 100 to 150 Dollars .

There was no potable water so I had to rely on my own water from outside the hotel. My bed was super uncomfortable and sunken in, my shower didn't have a door. there's no air conditioning but they give you this small portable fan. The walls are super thin and can hear everyone coming in or out. Not in a bad location, right next to the Underground. Would not recommend this place for more than 2 nights

The Mayflower room we chose and paid for was on the hotel's fifth floor. When we arrived, we were told the hotel was under construction and, therefore, the elevator was not in service, so we would have to use the stairs to climb and haul our luggage up five floors. We are both close to 80 years old, so that was not acceptable. They had a sign on their desk that said, due to construction, we should not drink the water. We stayed the first night very uncomfortably and left the next morning to find a hotel. We were therefore requesting a full refund since what we paid for was not available. This hotel should not have been open during renovation. I should not have offered what was not available. It is probably a find a hotel when it is fully functional.

Didn’t sleep well
Booking stated King sized bed. We had an old, sunken double. The hotel is very dated, thin walls where we could hear the next room snoring all night. We won’t be returning

I would never recommend this place. One, it shouldn't be buried in text that there are no elevators (it's the last think on their need to know list, so of course I missed it). And there are elevators, they're just "under renovation" and have been since at least May. They wouldn't change us to a lower floor (we were given a room on the fourth floor). They don't offer to help you with your bags. Oh and fun fact, the stairs (even in a single flight of stairs) are all different heights, so when I was lugging all my stuff up the first time, I didn't expect the top stair to suddenly be two inches higher and tripped and fell with all my stuff. The water for some reason in this one place wasn't potable. They said they put water bottles in our room- they didn't. So of course had to go back down and up again for that. The shower couldn't pick a temperature to stay at, so it was switching between warm hot cold now matter how I changed the dial. And the toilet sometimes took 3 or 4 flushes to actually flush. After being in the UK for three weeks, this was the last place I stayed and it was by far the worst and not a great note to end on.

Won’t be staying there again
Lift didn’t work, was not able to drink the tap water for some reason and they clearly have a rodent problem as you could hear them scurrying around in the ceiling space all night. Great location but this place needs a huge overhaul. I wish I could get a refund… the family were terrified of the place.

Good value hotel, great location
Good value, good location, friendly staff. Reasonable size twin room. Nice bathroom. Unfortunately we were on the ground floor and we had noticed scaffolding and evidence of work going on outside our window. It was a bit of a surprise however,to be woken by very loud workmen RIGHT outside the window at 8.30am.
