A traditional English bed and breakfast hotel, unchanged I would say from the 1960's, which means that if you need an en-suite then look elsewhere. My room (nr 6) was very small but with a hand basin and facing the back which was pretty quiet and green. Floor boards creak above at night - but so what? It's not really suitable for single women (because of having to parade up and down to the loo etc) but for a man like me looking for a quiet night before work the following day - just ideal. It's on a busy road (Gower St) but which leads right into the centre of London (bus stop opposite). Most of the guests seemed to be from abroad - I think Americans would be a bit put off by the faded and limited facilities but if you go into this with your eyes open you'll probably be ok. Breakfast could have been better with a bit of effort - the ingredients were fine but the staff needed more training and investment into organisation and management skills. I had the sense of a general lack of experience amongst the staff who needed additional English language tuition and the presence of a manager qualified in the field of 'Hospitality and Management'. There are many universities in the uk offering this specialism, so there's actually no excuse for inaction.

The location is good, really close to British museum etc. The bed was the most uncomfortable bed I have ever slept in. I only had three hours sleep for this reason as every time I moved the springs embedded into my back. In fact the floor would have been far more comfortable had there been enough floor space to lie down on.

Tremendously over charged for this hotel. What I go was what id expect from a low budget Hostel. Room was small, beds were uncomfortable. On the third night I noticed a bed bug crawling across the book I was reading. Walls were extremely thin and I could hear everything going on in the room next door. Phone in room did not work, neither did the shaving light above the mirror. Curtains did not properly close to cover up light entering from outside. Net curtains were very dusty and dirty. Only 2 toilets for the hotel to share and for the second two nights of my stay one of those was out of order. On my last day day my beds were not remade and I did not receive a fresh supply of shampoo/shower gel so my day spent working and at the gym ended in me having to wash just in water. The bathroom was average in that it ran water and the toilet worked, however again it was of the standard I would expect to find in a hostel. It felt more like a public toilet than a hotel bathroom. Overall, extremely disappointed with the standard of the entire hotel having paid just over 70 pounds a night for it.

Location was great. Excellent breakfast. I asked for a budget room and that is what I got. Good value for the location. Location of the facilities - but that is for this particular room. For other rooms this would not be a problem.

The location was great. Breakfasts were adequate. Noisy!!!! Street traffic as well as noise from other rooms (slamming doors, loud voices, etc). No lift. Carrying 5 pieces of luggage up 60 steps was not fun! State of bathroom very unsatisfactory-mould on shower ceiling, water faucets that were extremely difficult to turn off.

The staff were very professional and helpful. They were very knowledgeable about various services offered nearby. Although the rooms were conveniently located, they were rather small. There were also no laundry services either offered by the hotel or onsite.

The hotel was situated close to the west end,kings cross station and main shopping/tourist attractions making it an ideal place to stay. A very basic service was offered.There was no lift and the family room was on the top floor making it awkward with toddlers.I Found that this hotel was fairly expensive for the level of service and comfort offered.

La ubicación es muy buena, Linea de autobuses a 2min del hotel y dos paradas de metro muy cercanas. El hotel presume de tener wifi, pero solo hay wifi en la planta donde se desayuna, por lo que en la habitación es imposible tener.

Hotel je na odlični lokaciji, v odličnem in zelo varnem delu mesta le nekaj korakov stran od BBC-ja. Zelo enostavno ga je najti, ne glede na to kako pripotuješ v London...Za nekaj dni je OK Prvo noč se je po hotelu širil obupen vonj, kljub temu da smo bili v najvišji sobi...nisem prepričana ali je vonj prihajal iz hotela ali ceste in nismo ugotovili ali smrdi po hrani ali pranju in vlagi...
