Definitely not worth the money.
The room was very dated, there was no tea, coffee or milk. It was clean to a point but could have been cleaner. The bathroom needed to be much cleaner. It was extremely small and would have been more suited to a caravan or mobile home. Breakfast was cereal and toast. Not a continental breakfast that was advertised.

Don't expect too much
A very cheap and cheerful hotel that could do with some freshening up and a bit of maintenance. A bit grubby around the corners and probably needs a coat of paint. Breakfast is toast or cereal.

Room was okay, dusty in places, bathroom was like a touring caravan wwtroom with drain in middle of floor and a hard bed but slept well. Breakfast is cereal, toast with help yourself preserve, jam, marmalade etc, tea/coffee and orange juice. It was only for one night, as soon as arrived we went out, not returning till 11.30pm and was out again by 9.45am after breakfast. For 1 night you couldn't complain, was only to rest your head.

Do not use!
We didn't stay. Alrhough we did not expect luxury, we did not expect the filth that met us! It was an absolute disgrace. The person on reception did offer a change of rooms to their sister hotel, next door, this was slighzly cleaner but in no way acceptable.

Hell on Earth
Arrived to be given a basement room which was disgusting. Dust everywhere and carpet hadn't been cleaned in a long time. Then we went to look at the en suite bathroom...wow. i wouldnt allow an animal to wash in there....filthy!!! After highlighting the state we were given another room in the next hotel along and although it was slightly better, still dust and hadn't been hoovered. It is an insult to charge over £100 per night to stay here....the place needs a power wash. If there is any organisation that is supposed to check hotels....i would visit asap as someone is going to get sick staying here.

The receptionist was quite abrupt when we arrived not very welcoming. The place was dirty and very dated the bed had hole in. The quilt l had cigarette burns in.When we vacated the premises and handed in our key the receptionist was asleep on a quilt on the floor which I thought was very unprofessional. There was a sign saying don’t leave any valuables in your room? Why? Was it not secure? Will not be returning and would not recommend.

The hotel is in a good location within walking distance of main line rail and underground stations as well as several museums. Staff were friendly and check in was very straightforward. Our room was a reasonable size and the bed was clean and quite comfortable. However, the en-suite was very small and accessed by a very high step which caused some problems. The shower head support was broken meaning that you had to hold the shower. The paintwork in the room was very shabby, faded and marked and there was a significant amount of dust behind the bed side tables and along some of the skirting boards and on the carpet in the corners. Wires and other lumps and bumps could be felt under the carpet. The TV screen and remote control were covered in sticky marks. Breakfast consisted of DIY tea/coffee, apple juice, cheap cereal and even cheaper bread for DIY toast. Other than that it was lovely!
