Great Location & Good Value

We stayed there for 1 night July 1st when our family of 5 went over to attend The Graham Norton Show. We just wanted very basic accomodation, clean & reasonably priced. I had read some negative reviews so I was a bit apprehensive. We were pleasantly surprised- the location was fantastic, rooms very clean newly painted, bathrooms spotless, fridge in room- good for keeping water cold. Staff were really nice & friendly very helpfl. The owner was also a very nice man. He cooked a fine breakfast. I would recommend this hotel- perfect for those who do not wish to pay a fortune for a short stay. we had a Double & a Tripe Room I night cost 164 Pounds. When we arrived one of our rooms wasnt quite ready - The owner was very apologetic & brought us to restuarant next door & invited us to eat and drink what we liked (5 of us). It was not luxurious but we werent paying luxury prices. We would recommend this Hotel

not good

This is one of the worst hotels I and my collegue have stayed in. We chose it as we were going to the University for a conference. It appears to be next to a Hall of residence and the occupents partied into the small hours and were very noisy. The bed linen was not good so we ended up sleeping in our clothes. The smoke detector was covered with a plastic bag. Good H&S! There were cigarette ends floating in the toilet.The area was very suspect and we didn't feel comfortable walking from the tube in the dark. We arrived at 9pm so didn't feel comfortable going back into central London because we didn't want to walk back. There were no resturants around. The chinese in the picture is no longer there. All in all a bad experience.

Bad example of getting what you pay for

We booked this hotel because of its relatively cheap price and it proximity to Waterloo station and these were really the only two things that were ok with this hotel. Upon arrival, a bit later than expected I'll note, the front door was locked and we had to call someone to let us in. We had to hike up a tiny stairway to the fourth floor with all our luggage due to no elevator. The room was fairly small but the worst part was the bed. We had requested a double but found two single beds, practically cots, pushed together. I say cots as there was no real cushion on the bed, merely springs that made sleeping next to impossible. I will say that the man who let us in was rather sweet and provided us with milk, cereal, and fruit for breakfast but I would definitely stay elsewhere if ever in the predicament again of needing a room for a quick stayover in London.
