We enjoyed the size of the rooms with kitchenette, sofa, nice bathroom and bedroom. We had a great view of the street below. Breakfast was good, but no hot choices other than a boiled egg. The area wasn't the best, but the underground was nearby so everything was acessible that way.

This place was generally a nice place and convenient and comfortable. We accidentally booked an accessible room and DO NOT book one of these! Bathroom completely floods ( entire floor) after 1 shower due to bad shower pan and slow drain. The front desk told us this is just to be expected and hotel was booked so we couldn’t switch rooms. Had to make a towel dam to keep the water from flooding.

After booking three rooms I got an email asking for £150 deposit for each and I was a bit concerned. I then got a check in email and it only worked for one of the rooms. I emailed the hotel via Expedia and asked if we would need entrance codes and would there be anyone there to take a deposit. I never received a reply. I was thinking oh no what have I done!!! However the place is close to the tube with a big reception / bar area and the chap who greeted us was incredibly helpful. The rooms were, whilst strange in their design very spacious and the bed and shower tip top. Breakfast was satisfactory and overall I found it a great stay. I will definitely book again next time in London.

The property is not bad and close to a train station. The problem was the hospitality, it gets a -10 from me. As a guest in your hotel I'm expected to be treated kindly and helped in all ways possible. That was not the case, very poorly hospitality this hotel has, not one day I entered the doors and received a Hello. One day my phone got stolen and I needed to communicate with my family in Puerto Rico to let them know something has happened. They helped 0, first the phone at the hotel wasn't making any calls to PR so I asked for any other solution they could give me and it was none. Im a problem solver so that for me was so unkind of the hotel staff. It was the worst feeling to be in a foreigner country without the help of the place that you are staying in. Just for that, my review is 0 and will never stay again.

The bed was not as clean as it should have been. Dust balls and other lint that made it seem like it was not recently cleaned. Lights in bathroom didn’t work so took a shower in the dark. On the last evening, there was a loud buzzing sound all night. I slept 2 hours and then boarded a 9 hour flight. Liked the facilities but disappointed the room didn’t seem to be checked for things like lights just not working.

Sheets/pillows on the bed smelled horrible, like they'd been sweated on and used. No real room cleaning, even on request. Weird shower that gets entire bathroom floor wet. Quite noisy from traffic in the area. We got a note on the second day that water would be unavailable all day on our third day.. first time I have ever been told in a hotel that water is not available! Staff were nice. Concept is nice, and the tea/coffee is a nice perk.
