I like Lydia. She was nice for all my needs. She kept my room clean. Now, If you have problems with your feet and leg, there is no elevator. So be wise in the amount of luggage you bring if you ain't strong enough.

Paola

United States of America

Large, light, airy room, perfectly fine for family of 5 (kids 15, 13, 11), and tricky number in lots of the big brand motels. Beds made/bins emptied every day, which we didn't expect. Bathroom a little dated, but fine, and ensuite, unlike alot of other providers where shared. Easy walk to a variety of shops, underground and museums. Pleasant street: does what it says on the tin!

It was crazy cheap and the beds were comfortable. We got a twin with two double beds. We arrived at 2100 and left at 0800 so just a place to sleep. The location is 2 mins walk from Earl's Court so it was great for jumping on the tube for an appointment at GOSH. The wifi was good too. Managed to download some movies for the trip home later and stream netflix. The room was big and spacious. Is it a place to stay for a holiday? No, but it's great for a place to stay to get your head down if spending a couple of nights in London. I read the other reviews and was going to just cancel and stay elsewhere but it was ok, especially when it £100 cheaper than anywhere else in the area.

There was a hole in the wall in the bathroom, it was covered by a bit of wood but you could clearly see the street outside around the edges when in the shower. I'm sure they're in the middle of fixing it. Looks like there was a window there before.

“My bag was stolen on the first day, I do not recommend staying at this hotel, horrible service.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children

The hotel has no security, no one is in the reception, disorganized, the owner without commitment to the guests. I arrived on the first day to leave the bags at the hotel, I was informed that I could leave in the corridor when returning the night my suitcase was gone, we looked in the security camera, someone came in and stole my suitcase. I had no clothes on. The owner said he had nothing to do or help me and was ignorant of me. I don't recommend this hotel, the cheap comes out expensive in the end.

it shouldn’t be hard to get wifi to the rooms, the “free wifi” claim on hotel’s page is unfortunately not accurate. Wifi is just available at the “entrance corridor” where there is no common area. Also there is kettle and mugs at the room but no coffee or tea, nor proper cutlery. So not sure what’s the point of mugs and kettle if I have to buy a jar of coffee for myself during my visit... Spoons in mugs were plastic ones which looked like left from some previous guests as they were all different kind!? A random plastic fork was left as a cutlery also. I really think the effort could go into other things instead of changing my sheets and towels everyday.

See the full review above. :)
Let's be honest. You are only reading this review, because you are trying to decide if it is worth booking at this place. Right now, you're thinking: "It's cheap, but maybe it's too cheap? I wonder if the rooms are dirty. How's the staff? Is the shower/toilet something I would feel safe using? Is this worth it!?" So let me answer, and save you time from reading the other reviews. 1: It is dead cheap for a reason! BUT, it is exactly what you expect. We had a family room with 5 beds and private bathroom. It is central and close to everything. The beds were reasonably comfortable, the shower was passable and the bedding was clean. They were cleaning the room when we arrived, but when we got back at night, everything was sorted and we had extra towels. 2: The rooms was clean enough. I wouldn't want to eat in the room, but you are just looking at this as a one, possibly two night stay, so you'll be alright. There was some mould around the sink in the bathroom, the windows didn't fully close and there were no blinds to shut out the light. BUT, the room was warm in spite of that. So that is a plus. We all slept fine. 3: Staff. Friendly. The check in was easy. The checkout even faster. They were helpful and answered all our questions. No complaints there. Overall: IF you are looking for a cheap stay and you are ONLY going to sleep there (and have a shower in the morning), then yes. Book it. You get what you pay for. Nothing more, nothing less. It is a decent bed for a night or two and having a private bathroom is a massive plus! If you want a nice room for you and the miss/mr for a romantic weekend, then look elsewhere! This is NOT meant for lovely nights and romantic stays. But, like I said. If you are looking for a decent night for you and your mates or your family if you are travelling on a budget, then do consider Anwar House. Room. 5/10 Private bathroom. 5/10 Decent beds. 6/10 Friendly staff.
