Our room was ground floor street side. Traffic noise was terrible throughout the night. Motorcycles racing, sirens, etc. No AC, so we needed an open window, but had to make do with a fan. No smoking inside the hotel, but we had to walk through smoke to get inside. Hotel staff and others stood near the door to smoke. Advertised that they have a restaurant, but there isn’t one. Bed was ok, but pillows were hard. Towels old and thin. I would not stay here again.

In theory there's nothing fundamentally wrong with the hotel but just my particular visit and room wasn't so good. The friendly receptionist made the check-in process easy. The lift worked and at first glance the room seemed OK - clean room, sheets and towels, tea and coffee making facilities, a TV, WiFi, etc. But as I settled in I started to notice the flaws. The room was far too hot but if I opened the window it was too noisy outside. The TV wouldn't switch on. The bed was far too hard for my comfort level. The shower water pressure was very disappointing. But the worst part were loose floorboards above me that squeaked as the guests in the room above walked around and they didn't settle down until well after midnight, so I could finally settle down to sleep too - only to be woken up by the fire alarm siren in my room sounding for a couple of seconds just before 2am. It woke me up with such a start that it took me another hour to get back to sleep - mainly because the people above me had obviously been woken up too! I realise most of problems might be room specific so your milage might vary but I can't forgive the fire alarm incident and I won't be staying there again.

The facility is not to the mark as is shown on the photos. Certainly not value for money that is charged. Inconvenient size and placement of Bath fittings, safety escape routes not clearly marked, No phone in room (for inhouse communications), Limited info exchange at front desk, etc.

Dreadful place - only stay if you have to. Only redeeming feature was that the bed seemed clean.

The bathroom shower was a bad design. One rotating tap with no indication of how to use it. Lever hard to get good temperature without getting cold water first. Shower head too high on wall and cannot be moved. Should be changed for hand wand type which would be better to hold. 12092024 date.

I think the first thing to say is that the hotel is not very far from the station which is a good point second point the room was accommodating and it had everything that was needed in there apart from the fan not working. The staff are very helpful and friendly the only thing that lets the place down is that the walls are thin between each room and above and therefore the noise can be very difficult if people just talking loudly and other noises and for that reason even with earplugs I'm not sure whether I would go back or not because some of the other people at the hotel did not have any respect but other people

My room was by the staff room so they were very inconsiderate talking very loudly at 6:30am in the morning. (Could have been earlier). Constant banging throughout the night and creaking from above room. Mentioned it to reception when checking out and will not be returning. Probably was one of the worst rooms I have ever been in. Pictures on website made it look better than it actually was.

Your workers are friendly. You don’t leave enough towels-1to share for hand wiping and no washcloths- just horrible. Toilet tissue sitting on the back of toilet not mounted on the wall. Only one thin pillow. Very little room to take a shower the bathroom is tiny. I bid you not to stay here!! Horrible

I certainly wouldn't be recommending this. The place has no accessibility and the staff are no help whatsoever. In fact, they are pretty unpleasant. There are much better places to stay at in London. I'd avoid this place.
