    We checked in around 11pm and the guy checked us in was a bit dry, definitely not someone very good at customer service, but the guy in the morning was smiling and welcoming… so overall not bad. I would expect at least drinking water in the room if not anything else…

    Great location, Apartment was very clean, beds were comfortable and we had a good stay..

    Had to wait for like 20 mins for our room to be ready, though we arrived at around 2.10 PM. Bathroom stinking of cigarettes, it was suffocating, also not enough space to hang clothes or towels. The toiletries were of a low standard, and there were no tissue boxes provided. There was a tv but we couldn't watch everyday channels only pay to view no free view. We could have done with a chair in the room and more pillows.

    5-6 mins walk to the Elizabeth line. AC and fridge in the room. Iron and hairdryer provided upon request (though there wasn't an ironing board in the room.) Kalum at the reception was very friendly.

    The breakfast service could improve with the options they provided but I had not expected breakfast to be included anyways so that did not hinder my stay there at all. The hotel being such good value for money was far more important for me.

    Comfortable room and good amenities. Nice location with a lots of desi restaurants just outside the hotel. Staff was also very kind. Hotel was clean and tidy. The room air-con was amazing during that London hot weather - helped me sleep like a baby! :D

    I was disappointed with the very limited breakfast and the fact that some guests, who appeared to be homeless, were accommodated in the hotel, as this resulted in noise and less pleasant behaviour

    Bed bases are a bit hard but after requesting a 2nd pillow this was made less of an issue.

    Good location close to restaurants and underground. Quiet considering it’s on a busy road and complimentary breakfast was great with lots of choice. Front desk staff always happy to assist with requests which are quickly resolved.

    The room and corridor had a funny smell and the room was a bit dusty.

    Easy to get to lots of options for food outside the hotel and quick train into central London.

    Cleanliness was a major issue. The bed was dirty, and the sheets had stains. It seemed like they never cleaned under the bed. During our 5-night stay, no one vacuumed or properly cleaned the room; they only came to take out the trash. There was a clear lack of attention to cleanliness throughout our stay.

    The staff were friendly and helpful—anything we asked for was delivered promptly. The air conditioning in the room was excellent, and we were able to control the temperature easily. The room also had complimentary water, coffee, and tea, which was a nice touch.
