I will never stay again in this hotel. this is Not a Value for Money hotel. The staff was rude. I had to carry my luggages several floors up from the (typical tiny) stairs ( no elevator in this hotel ). The room was Not for claustrophobic persons. there was also a small hole in the wall. and i had to figure out how to turn on the room heating ! Last but not least i have to mention the poor Breakfast. this was not breakfast. it was something like breakfast. and really poor one. The only good part for this hotel is that was close to the Earls Cort Station.
Very pleased that on arrival the gentleman in reception honoured my request for a room with a minimum of stairs as he allocated us a large ground floor room. The room and bathroom were perfectly clean with the bathroom looking to be recently refurbished. The beds were comfortable and the towels provided of an unexpectedly good quality.The room and bathroom were small but perfectly adequate. The breakfast was better than the reviews I had read of the hotel. It was basic but entirely satisfactory and the bread provided was fresh and not just the cheapest available. The one unfirtunate was that the toaster wasn;t working on our second day. For the price paid for a 2 night stay to visit the International Horse show at Olympia it was excellent value for money.

Hey there, I booked a double room in January 2012 from booking.com and it cost me A44 for a Friday night. I booked this as I was moving home and needed a room for the night and this was one of the cheapest. It was great value for money. Bed was comfortable and clean, shower was great and there was a plasma tv with freeview in the room. Breakfast (toast,cereal & juice buffet style) was also included. The only negative I would say is that the room was slightly cold but I didn't ask them to turn on the heat so maybe this could of been remedied. I would recommend if you are looking for a nice budget hotel in a good location in London.

First of all, the guy who works at the desk during the day is extremely rude and lazy. They don't have an elevator, and the guy just laughed at me when I asked if they had one. He didn't budge to help us carry our heavy luggage up three flights of stairs. Then the room was tiny, but that's not the biggest issue. The bedspreads are dingy and dirty. They look like they're from 1980. If I had to pick a pro about this hotel, it's in a nice area in Earl's Court and is very close to the tube. I wouldn't recommend staying here to anyone though.even an enemy, ha.

Pros: Excellent location minutes away from Earls Court tube station, plenty of restaurants around. Cheap and clean room, which is not that common in London. Cons: The staff at this hotel is very rude except for the evening guy. There are no phones inside the rooms, no elevator and you have to give a 20 pounds deposit to get a remote (!). Also, staff won't bother checking if the room is ready if you arrive even a few minutes before check-in time (2pm). Bottom line is don't expect any kind of service at this hotel (except from the evening guy) but then again, this is no 5 stars hotel.

We did book through booking.com as it was in a very nice area and conveniently close to Earl's Court tube station. As soon as we arrived, NOBODY came to us to help with luggage. The place was dirty and stinky! The guy at the reception shown us our room; you know what? the room was even worse then the hotel itself! Walls were written on and dirty, bed linen were stained as well as the stinky carpet. Immediately me and my wife shared the same thought: let's move out ASAP! Despite I would loose my already paid money, we decide to go somewhere else. Plese do yourself a favor, run away from here!

I wasn't sure what to expect having read some of the other reviews of this hotel. However I must say, my two night stay was rather pleasant. I had a double room which was extremely quiet and comfortable. The rooms are a little small and bijoux but cosy nonetheless. The staff were polite and helpful when we needed to leave our luggage before our room was ready. I would stay here again as it's an excellent location for the Tube and sightseeing.

The other reviews have already said that the service is no existent. The rooms have been refreshed and are clean but tiny. Stay here if you only wish to sleep here. Breakfast is an experience - everyone needs to breath in at the same time so you can get to the breakfast bar and around the tiny room. Great location. Not sure this hotel is value for money. Might be best to stay a bit further out and get more for your A.

My wife and I stayed here while visiting London. The Hotel was reasonably priced and very basic. The rooms are very small as the hotel is built in an old townhouse. Breakfast is provided as part of the cost and is also basic. On the whole reasonably cheap so what you get is not bad value.
