Guest Reviews

• Manuel (10/5): - Está ubicado muy cerca de la estación de tren de Pimlico de la línea, Victoria, lo que lo hace muy accesible para moverse por toda la ciudad. El lugar es pequeño, ideal para un viajero o una pareja y lo entregaron muy limpio. Además, la comunicación con la administración siempre fue rápida y servicial, los recomiendo grandemente
• frida (2/5): Bott på hostel som känns renare i min ungdom - Såg väldigt annorlunda ut än på bilderna. Väldigt slitet och kändes inte speciellt rent. Matos från en resturangbakgård utanför. Chockad över att ett sånt här boende finns på Hotels.
• Gareth (6/5): - Good location. Host was pleasant. Good price. Property entrance/stairs a little dirty. Room was decent enough for our purposes, yet unspectacular. There was some noise up to around 1am seemingly from the takeaway next door - dragging of chairs/tables - which was irritating.
• eleni (4/5): - The agent was polite. The property was very different from the photographs online, which were at least misleading. The location is convenient. However it was very noisy with traffic , there is no air conditioning and the tower blowing cold air was very noisy and ineffective , one of the pillow cases had blood stains and had not been changed and the room was hot and smelled like a chippy. All in all the accommodation was poor and expensive for what it was.
• Sadeka (6/5): - Manager was great. Security is first class. Key less access. Wish we had the codes beforehand to avoid the wait. Musty and damp smell- they tried to use an air freshener which gave me more of a headache mixed with the damp smell. Bedding was clean but bed throw was not clean. Price- not bad for one night and £40. Local parking charges apply. Lots of local places to eat.
• Henrik (2/5): Tak men nej tak en anden gang - Ophold i et kælder værelse, med meget dårlig lugtende tæppe Vindue ud til en skakt hvor en kompressor startede og slukke hele tiden, fik ikke meget natte søvn. Dårlig seng
• Verified traveler (2/5): - Péssimo em todos os niveis.
• Thierry (2/5): - Chambre bruillante
• Joanna (6/5): - The property is a flat turned “hotel”. No staff, bathroom shared and smelled like mould. Room was nice and clean, but very tiny with practically no window. Property is very conveniently located, close to main train stations, tube, and busses. You get what you pay for- if you’re on a budget.
• Katie (8/5): Good, comfortable stay. - Stayed here for 1 night as was going to a gig in Camden. Jospeh sent really clear instructions ahead of our stay which were simple and easy to follow! The room was quite small, but had storage, iron, kettle and a wardrobe. The beds were comfy and the apparent was overall clean. It was perfect for one night but may want something bigger if staying longer! The room was quite warm at night but there was a fan in the room. Bathroom was clean. Overall really good experience and we would stay again! Although the room isn’t on a main road we were woken in the morning from traffic but this would be the case anywhere in London!
• Paul (6/5): - Walking distance to the eurostar Basic accommodation
• Robert (2/5): - This property bore no resemblance to the images online. It was incredibly small, needed maintenance and there was a leak from to ceiling causing a large damp patch on the bed. The worst experience I have ever had with an online booking. There were no checking details and nobody answering the front door on arrival. I had to contact Expedia to get a number for the host and wait to be met in. The room was noisy (nearby air conditioning unit) and had little natural light as it was underground.
• Verified traveler (2/5): Not a real hotel. - The room was very small, no real space to move at all. Bathroom was functional but also very small. The door way is very difficult to enter and exit. The lighting is very bright spotlights in ceiling which are too bright for normal use. They are the only lights except for one light in the bathroom. The bathroom door does not open all the way because one of the beds is in the way of the door. The manager was a very friendly and helpful guy but due to phone issues he was not easy to contact. They do not make up the rooms so you need to hang your towels to dry. In short, this was more like a boarding house than a hotel and definitely not worth the money that was charged. The location is very convenient to rail and night life.
• ROBERTO FEDERICO (6/5): muy malu e incomodo - no es como se ve en la foto somos una pareja y yo discapasitado noss dieron una habitacion muy chica y por escalera en un sub suelo por escalra miuy chiquita incomodicima... casi no entraba la cama ni una mesa o escritorio sin tv (estamos en el 2023) para que ofrescan este tipo de lugares el baño compartido un desastre la puerta estaba mal colocada o rota que si ivas al baño se veia todo de afuera se lo comente al que nos recivio ni una palabra en castellano pero con l celular nos dijo que tenia todo ocupado y que nos iva a cambiar ,,,nunca paso y despues dijo que limpiaban cara dos dias y tampoco vinieron un desastre
• Ricardo (2/5): Water dripping from the roof into bed at night - It was a disaster. There is no reception, I was given a mobile number and was shown the room. At night water started to drip into my bed. I woke up with the bed soaking wet. My socks on the floor were so wet I had to go to work with no socks and wet underwear. It was embarrassing. They don’t even offer a refund, I took a video
• Clara Joséphine (4/5): - Salle de bain commune avec les autres chambres, chambre en sous sol avec toutes petites fenêtres qui donne sur la cuisine d’un kebab, bruit de ventilation très forte à toutes heures
• Jesper (4/5): Disappointing stay - Nice apartment, ground level. However a lot of noise from the street at night and only cold water in the shower and in the washbasin.
• María del carmen (4/5): Decepcionada - Habitación y baño feos y demasiado pequeña, el acceso una escalera demasiado estrecha , no funcionaba la calefacción , te reciben a la hora exacta del checking y no hay manera de que te reciban antes, no tienen custodia de equipaje, pior lo tanto , si llegas a Londres temprano hasta las 2 pm tienes q estar dando vueltas con tu equipaje, lo mismo en el check out, a las 10 te tienes q ir y no puedes dejar en consigna tus cosas , no volveré a reservar un sitio como este
• laurent (4/5): - Tout, le produit proposé était sois disant un hôtel ??? La photo de la chambre ne correspond pas au produit à notre arrivée .Chambre de 7m2 en sous sol sans fenêtre juste des vasistas (ce n’était pas précisé dans l’annonce) .Salle de bain commune le crochet réparé avec du scotch !!! Le seul point positif a été le propriétaire qui nous a contacté à notre arrivé tardive et nous a donné les bonnes informations
• Ryan (8/5): Great for short stays - Was all brilliant and secure. Really made it feel homely, service was brilliant. Apart from picture that wasn’t properly fixed to the wall and fell off, everything else was brilliant! Would recommend if you’re not going to be in the hotel room for long. I was mainly out from morning till late night, and was nice to just sleep in! Bathroom was clean and stocked up with own soaps and shower gels. Service from Joe was amazing too!
• Verified traveler (4/5): Unsure I’ll go back - The check-in took a bit of time because I think they were doing another check in so I had to stay on the street at night, which wasn’t great but there were no problems. The mattress was very uncomfortable and there was a fan in the room which would go off every so often and was super noisy so we woke up every hour or so when it went off. Another negative thing (but not the host’s fault) was the other group that was in the next room who were laughing and shouting until 2 am or so and we had to wake up at 4:30 for our train at St Pancras.
• Adam (6/5): Deposit and ID, rats smell and noise. - The agent refused to grant me access unless I transferred him £100 and a photo of my drivers license! This all over WhatsApp. Rats in the ceiling woke me up twice and the general mouldy stench took some time to adjust to. Also the constant whining of the air-conditioner above the skylight. I was then charged a fee for paying the deposit.
• Jeanne (4/5): Unpleasant experience - I'm very disappointed in this hotel. I also had the right to a small room in the basement (number 2), relevant noise because of a noisy power supply just in front of the window. A very uncomfortable bed. Bed linen not changed with hair in the bed. A shared bathroom with no shower gel and no toilet paper. I won't be coming back and I certainly don't recommend it.
• Christof (4/5): Can't recommend - I chose this place for its proximity to the Eurostar terminal as I had an early morning departure. Bad choice. Small basement room (number 2) which was hot, despite turning off the radiator, stuffy, had a noisy AC unit right outside the window and the most uncomfortable bed I can ever remember. Sticky carpet. Bathroom was shared and the floor had not been cleaned properly for a while. This was bad even by London budget accommodation standards, yet cost EUR 84. I won't return and certainly not recommend.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - It was the perfect location for me. It was close enough to Kings across to walk, I even walked to City center one day, and there were many small restaurants close by. It was a very small property, but really all we needed for a few days in London. There is no tv, but if you’re sightseeing as I was, it wasn’t a problem.
