I have been to quite a few average hotels in London, but this one was really the worst yet. There are too many issues to fit here, but here are the main highlights, pictures speak for themselves:
- Surprise deposit of £100 to pay upon arrival, not mentioned in the booking T&Cs
- When I arrived they told me that my room was on the 5th floor, right at the top with no lift. With double stairs, that’s more like 7 floors to go up and down. I asked for another room and they gave me the crappiest ever, borderline insalubrious
- No WiFi, paint falling from the ceiling, chair completely scratched, carton box in the room, noisy fridge, NO MIRROR, way too hot and no possibility to open windows. Not mentioning the mold in the shower and dirty stains on the curtain
- One of the shared toilets was dirty upon arrival, and still in the same state 3 days later, unseen anywhere else..!!
Given the booking was not refundable, I had no choice but too stay at this place which I paid over £100 a night for, but which in reality should be more like £20-30 given the condition of the room.
Please go somewhere, you’ll get much value for money even if it seems that there are very few hotels available. This one just isn’t worth it
