Oh My God - Dont Bother

Firstly I need to point out that I have wrote reviews on this website before and I am always honest and I have never had to write a bad review, that’s going to change. Cost: For a twin room it was ?85 per night, good price for the location. However for an extra ?10 you can stay in a modern and classy hotel 10 mins away. It is way over priced, search for other hotels in this budget. Location: Location is the only positive thing about the hotel, that said 10 mins away are better hotels with better facilities. Deco: The hotel was out dated, it has not had any improvements since 1985. The room was very very basic, 2 x camping beds, a broken Tv and a wardrobe that wouldn’t open. Plus there are 2 entrances to this hotel, its just strange. Clean: The hotel reception desk is not that bad if I am honest however with the dated deco and the pitiful sizes of room it would be easy to hide the dirt. The room was clean(ish), the bathroom was horrible, the toilet had not been cleaned since the last occupants which was very nice as they left a little gift. I do not expect this especially when we checked in at 6pm. The bathroom was small, cold, mouldy, broken and dangerous tiles with poor water pressure. Staff: 2 words, freaky and weird. Seriously you may be thinking that I am being unfair, but people im not. For the British guest think of the Rik Mayel Film Guest House Paridiseo . . SIMPLY HORRIBLE

Convenient, friendly and hassle-free

I stayed at this hotel for seven nights on my recent visit to London. It was my second stay at this hotel, the first being in November 2006. London is such a big city and hotels are generally very expensive, so I decided to book the same again because my first experience was good. Mowbray Court Hotel is literally around the corner from Earl's Court tube station, which is a really convenient location as the station is served by a few lines, making it super easy to get to various parts of London. If you're not afraid of walking, Kensington and Notting Hill are not that far either. Earl's Court Rd has quite a few restaurants, a Boots pharmacy and supermarkets, and there's also a cheap internet cafe right across the road from the station. The hotel is a bit shabby but everything is clean and the staff are so friendly, it's a nice place to stay. For one person, the room was very comfortable in size, although the shower is quite small. Breakfast was included in my rate and the selection of cereals, fruit, cheese/ham/tomato and toast/delicious croissants was nice and a great way to fill up before a day of sightseeing. This hotel isn't going to win any awards for presentation but it's a reliable, affordable option in an expensive part of the world.
