The stay was awful, the room was in a basement that smelt damp, and of gas, the bed was well past its sell date, and the basement area outside the window was filthy and smelt and had a sewer. the room was noisy even though we were told it was a quiet room, and a regular guest always books it, and at 9pm we were going to leave and sleep in the car, but a new chap on reception gave us a nicer room, never again will we book this hotel, there were plenty of empty rooms, but shaun on reception said they were over 100 ponds a night, well an empty room earns nothing, surely half price is better than nothing, far too greedy, and a better room brings the customer back, the photos on the web need redoing, iy makes your web site look incompetent.

No working shower in stair only 4th fl room
Great location. Very small single room (which was fine) located up 10 flights of stairs on the 4th floor. Jaded decor. Bed was OK, but in the morning no water making it to the shower, so no shower. Didn't have time to sort anything else out. Overall, disappointing.

Room 402 Complaint SENT 2 DAYS AGO WITH NO REPLY SO FAR. With images to support my email ! Hello, I was advised by your receptionist to send this email. We stayed in your hotel from Monday 16/09 to tuesday 17/09. Since we had an awful experience at your hotel. For starters the shower tap was not working. As you opened it , it would not stay opened making the water temperature freeze or be too hot. You’d have to hold the tap as you showered. Which we couldn’t do. We did not have a shower last night. As we noticed that and being on the 4th floor I picked up the phone to call reception and inform of that but the telefone wasn’t working. I had to google the hotel reception number and call it via my cell phone. There was an dirty mug amongst the clean ones and spider webs on the wall. Your receptionist said that he could do anything because he isn’t the manager. So I would like to reach out to the person responsible for this and request my refund giving the circumstances we had to stay. I have just done a surgery yesterday which I also made your receptions aware of and all he said to me last night was that he didn’t have any other room for us, nor he could do anything because it was late. I couldn’t leave again I had done a surgery I can’t keep moving. I hope to hear back from you soon. Regards,

Grim bathrooms and terrible bedrooms.
One of the worstg bathroom experiences ever! The showers backed up so one had to stand in ankle deep water. The hair dryer did not work so my other half had to go out with wet hair in London winter. We only checked in to have a shower as our newly renovated flat round the corner did not have hot water yet. Not worth even the small amount we payed. I cannot imaging starting there.

Good value for location
It’s good value for the location, breakfast included which is fine. Rooms Torres and small, some much smaller than others. We appear to be offered the smaller than others in spite of being frequent overnighters.

Dissapointed
The duvet was dirty and had staines, the tv wasn’t working. The room and the hotel were smelling funny. It was very noisy. I booked for a night but left after a few hours. I haven’t received my deposit room back, even if i have the receipt.

The price reflected the amenities. Having stayed at a number of 2 and 3 star hotels in the area I would stay again. Shower and bathroom seem to have been recently renovated.

Go prepared. Take ID, cash deposit, a mug & milk
Only 1 small cup and 2 milk portions provided. No glass or toothmug. Such a large kettle that it could be filled only by using the cup! So no real understanding of how the room might actually be used! Breakfast was better than expected with hard boiled eggs included.but no entry after 9:15am and 15 minute entry slot is booked in advance so I have always skipped it previously. Checkout 11am but who wants to climb 4 flights of stairs again?
