We were allowed to leave bags before check-in time for free. Hotel perfect for Earl's Court tube station and Kew Gardens. Good value for money. Breakfast was included- cereal, toast, boiled eggs, juice, coffee. Staff were very efficient.

Everything was good, except if you wanted to get up around seven to shower before they start serving breakfast, there was not a single drop of warm water. However, if you were fine to shower at an odd hour, there was sufficient hot water.

The room was small but had everything you would need. The plugs were in the correct place, there was wardrobe space, tv and plenty of tea and coffee.

The hotel was located in Kensington near the Earls Court tube stop. Plenty of restaurants nearby. That was the only saving grace for this hotel.

Sanjay

Located right near a tube station, great basic hotel if you aren’t going to hang out there all day

United States of America

No electricity in the room, sink stopped up, broken shower door, tv with no channels, asked to be moved to a room with electricity, and after a whole day of complaining, were moved to another room without electricity, but also without a window. They refused to refund our 2nd day when we moved to a better hotel, which was less expensive and 3 stars, just 1block away. A total miserable experience.

No duvets available, my hubby is post chemo and we were both cold.. the blankets provided in our room (x5) were obviously not changed regularly as a few were covered in black hairs.
Great location and very reasonably priced for this area of London!

Bad smell in the room and in the bathroom. Dirty bed cover. In the bathroom the water from the shower will remain on the floor . You need to dry the floor using extra towels , but is not really easy to do this . The breakfast is really poor (only bread , cereals, cheese , jam and butter + drinks) . Outside of the building , the road is under construction and is a high noise during the day , you can’t rest .
Close to Oxford underground station .

“Never again.”

What I didn’t like was the fact that photos posted on booking does not reflect fully actual state of the rooms. I made a few photos myself - take a look to avoid disappointment. During the night I woke up three times cause my back hurt. Morning I checked the mattress and immediately I regret that decision. Breakfast was a joke. One of the photos shows it - I managed to catch ALL on one photo. There was also a juice+coffe.
Elevator was a good thing. My room was on third floor.

There was black marks on the bed covers like they have not be replaced and the floor in the toilet was very sticky. Also the picture on the website did not match the room so it was fake advertising. We Were also meant to get breakfast which was included when we booked it but we did not receive it.
The staff were polite

Staff are extremely rude. They do not treat you like a guest. We had a double bed booked for our room but they couldn't accommodate this and we ended sleeping on twin beds. They did nothing to make it up to us and were extremely rude and unhelpful.

Room was not that clean, shower sprays all over the bathroom with black mould in the corner. Also found someone else's hair all over the extra blankets as all that is on the beds is a thin sheet. Construction going on whilst we were there from early mornjng till quiet late at night. Breakfast is a joke, no point in offering breakfast if it's just toast and cheese. Faulty wiring to some plug sockets in the room too.
Convenient location to get around town. Beds made daily and fresh towels.

No windows but patio door onto balcony which had notice to say do not stand on. Could not turn off boiling hot radiator in room. No plug for sink. Had to plug in kettle on floor as no socket on wall . Twin beds so close together not even table in between. Breakfast very very basic processed cheese slices and boiled eggs and toast and jam and muesli.
