The Hotel is incredibly good value for Central London. As a 2 Star, what you get is what you'd expect. Staff are nice and location is peaceful.

Don't expect too much
A very cheap and cheerful hotel that could do with some freshening up and a bit of maintenance. A bit grubby around the corners and probably needs a coat of paint. Breakfast is toast or cereal.

Liked: Amenities
Room was okay, dusty in places, bathroom was like a touring caravan wwtroom with drain in middle of floor and a hard bed but slept well. Breakfast is cereal, toast with help yourself preserve, jam, marmalade etc, tea/coffee and orange juice. It was only for one night, as soon as arrived we went out, not returning till 11.30pm and was out again by 9.45am after breakfast. For 1 night you couldn't complain, was only to rest your head.

Definitely not worth the money.
The room was very dated, there was no tea, coffee or milk. It was clean to a point but could have been cleaner. The bathroom needed to be much cleaner. It was extremely small and would have been more suited to a caravan or mobile home. Breakfast was cereal and toast. Not a continental breakfast that was advertised.

Very dirty, borderline filthy
Dirty, borderline filthy. Toilet was broken so some contents leaked out onto the floor with every flush. Reporting this to the (possibly inebriated) staff sparked no reaction. Cups and glasses were clearly not washed since last guest. Towels were stained. Nutshells from previous guest lay under the sheets of our bed.

Inexpensive for stay in a very convenient and safe London area. Hotel small, several floors but no elevator, breakfast standard continental of juice/cereal/rolls/coffee. Staff very pleasant and helpful. I would stay there again if we had a room only one floor from the entrance.

Do not use!
We didn't stay. Alrhough we did not expect luxury, we did not expect the filth that met us! It was an absolute disgrace. The person on reception did offer a change of rooms to their sister hotel, next door, this was slighzly cleaner but in no way acceptable.

I can't recommend it
Went to London to watch a soccer game and explore the city. We chose this hotel since it's close and it was reasonably priced for the area. The hotel is living up to todays standard, and I felt like everything in the hotel was cheaped out on. I can't recommend this place for many reasons; from being asked to pay for the wifi that barely works(I was told the wifi wasn't supposed to work in the rooms) to the free breakfast being cheap loads of bread topped with a shared Nutella bottle between the residents. The hotel and area has potential, but they really need to invest in the rooms and common areas for me to recommend it to anyone.
