Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was brilliant, close to Kensington Gardens and local tube stations, but the rooms looked awful and had a strange smell. Service lacked interaction, and the dining options were limited. However, the access to Hyde Park was great, and the staff friendly.
The hotel's rooms fell short of expectations with no headboard and standard cleanliness, but housekeeping improved over subsequent days; however, strong unpleasant odors persisted. The staff was unhelpful, which tarnished the overall experience.
The hotel had some ups and downs. The rooms were not as clean as expected with muck and grime around the sink, and they weren't ready on time as promised. On the bright side, the free trainee electrician program was an entertaining diversion during room cleaning breaks. The staff seemed a bit confused at times but were overall very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, there was no breakfast available, and extra charges applied for services like airport shuttle.
The hotel offers a high standard for a budget stay, with fresh basic breakfast and polite staff. However, there were some traces of use in the rooms. The location is very handy, though not far from the tube and park.
My stay at the hotel was quite disappointing overall. The room, despite the price paid, was extremely small, dirty, and noisy, making it a real letdown. On the positive side, the location was convenient for accessing tube stations, and the staff was friendly. However, the dining experience was unpleasant, and the facilities were lacking.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were made up daily but appeared dirty on the walls, which was a bit off-putting. The service was friendly overall, but there were some issues with room readiness and blame-shifting. The location was convenient for exploring London, but there were missed details like the outside pillar not being emptied. The dining options were limited, but the basic breakfast was satisfactory. Overall, it was a decent stay but with some notable drawbacks.
I stayed at this hotel and had a mixed experience. The rooms, despite needing some maintenance, were clean; however, the ongoing construction work made it noisy. The staff were friendly but faced communication challenges, and the location was convenient for transportation but not without some noise. The dining options were lacking, and the facilities were only average.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were a bit like a dormitory with bunk beds and double beds, and there was a strong smell of mold. However, the quick response from the housekeeping staff to prepare a new room was impressive, and the price was fair.
