Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The manager was very rude and behaved like a racist to me. I was scheduled to check out at 11am on today, Tuesday , 17th September but there’s a late check out option at 2pm at the hotel. I arrived back at the hotel at 2:20pm due to a delayed train trip to find that my personal belongings had been removed from my room. I even offered to pay for the extra hours but then the manager turned it down and behaved very awkwardly to me as if we had issues before now. I can never use this hotel again . It’s a shame !!!!

This hotel was great!! rooms were a bit small and squished which was a bummer, we could only fit one suitcase on the ground at a time. but other than that it was terrific - the front desk girls were so nice and accommodating, the breakfast was yummy and they had ac in the rooms! definitely would stay here again, only a short walk from the underground

The property itself was walking distance to the metro. Metro was about a 10 minute walk to the right and restaurants were a 15 minute to the left. Very centric and convenient. The rooms were very tiny. Our original room had a window reserved. Once in the room, noticed that the window faced a wall. Requested another room with a window and was given an option to move but was able to view it first. Which was odd but went with it as I wanted ventilation and to see something else that a wall. We were given a room on the first floor which had a view of the garden. It was perfect but the room seemed smaller. Great for one person but don’t recommend for two. The staff was not friendly or accommodating at all with an exception of one employee in the night shift. She was very professional, accommodating and went above and beyond to ensure we felt welcomed. Thank you Sarah! The rest of the staff seemed very bothered by any question. For example, we asked a manager and a guy during the night shift for an extra pillow and towels. They said IF they have any extras, they would bring it to the room. That never happened! Another guest asked for a pillow and the same employee jumped off her office chair (which is where they spent most of their time) and went to get a pillow to her. Really??? Is it because I’m a man, an American? Another example, their water that is in their common area was empty. Were uoset because I asked for more.

Disliked: Amenities
The property was clean and bright but the rooms was beyond small. There wasn’t even space to open a suitcase. The bathroom was fine, but the shower was very small and awkward to get into. If you are above average sized, you will struggle. This is a good hotel if you don’t plan on spending any time in the hotel because it is just so small. The rooms were quiet and the beds were comfortable. We didn’t spend time in the lobby, but it was full of chairs and tables for working.

Staff very nice and helpful!
The room was much smaller than anticipated. The staff were super nice, and the breakfast was good. I would have liked to have a washcloth with the towel. It would have been nice to have a night stand beside each bed. I would have liked the garbage in the room to have been emptied daily. It was very warm in the room, and it had to adjusted by front staff. There was no phone in the room to call downstairs if there was a problem.

I love the decor in this hotel. The staff was very friendly....and giving a shout out to Thilly and Kevin for making me feel welcomed. Overall everything was great. The rooms are very small but considering, that you're only going to need somewhere to sleep it was ok. It was a good location and you can do a lot of walking.

Stayed in a few areas around Earlscourt before but this place is the best one so far, quiet I mean you don't hear any traffic from the room we stayed in. The only thing I complain is the lack of plate even a small plate to dish out your croissant during breakfast. Other than that it was all good. And will defintely stay in this hotel again 😊

Paid for a room with windows but got one without any windows at all. Also, we were supposed to have breakfast included but was surprised when we were told that breakfast wasn’t included on the first night but was included on the 2nd day. Who would book a room with breakfast for just one day? The room was also tiny. Reminded me of the hotels in Japan. Patrycia and Shay made our stay as pleasant as possible though.

Good hotel!
The rooms are very small, but if you are planning on exploring the town and just sleeping at the hotel, it gets the job done! The outside of the hotel does not look appealing but once you get in the lobby, everything looks nice and updated. We enjoyed our stay and staff was friendly!

We found the property clean and the staff very welcoming. Some good points about the property... -The area leans more residential so it was very quiet in the evening. -We were within reasonable walking distance to a bus stop and the Earl's Court Undergound making it easy to get to the things we wanted to do. - There were numerous restaurants within walking distance. Our only gripe was the size of the room and bathroom, both very, very small. We've traveled extensively in Europe for almost 20 years and could only think of one other property we've stayed abroad that was smaller.

I arrived early at the hotel, and waited for hours for a room, since check-in time is 3:00pm. My room had no windows, the air conditioner was loud, and housekeeping only clean your room after three days. But, transportation is excellent, and some of the staff members are friendly and professional. There's a fee for early check-in $15 dollars, and $11 dollars for breakfast...,
