Another property I had stayed for years , primarily due to the pool and was very upset it was emptied as advertised .Also hotel was being used by person's that were , medicaid ie homeless tenants of the property in a wing of the motel. They were mostly nice but in some cases they were living there so it was no longer like a motel more like a homeless shelter . The staff was nice thought . I was moved to another motel but as I hear this hotel is being demolished and rebuilt. this issue will be obviously not a problem in future.

Better stay elsewhere spend a bit more.

It's hard to find good things to say about the hotel. They do have a elevator that holds two people. We booked two rooms for our family. The rooms were dirty exposed wiring in the rooms. The toilets are so close to the wall your knees and forehead touch the walls. I am not a tall person only 5'9" and I had trouble using the bathroom. No AC but they did put a van in one of our rooms. One of the bathrooms had mold on the ceiling. Would not recommend staying at this hotel again. It has a hostile vibe to it.

For a budget hotel, the Garden View punched way above its weight. Niggles were - no plug in the bathroom sink, and nowhere to hang towels when used but not needing replacement. Apart from that, the room was clean, if small, and in a great area for tube travel. We'd return quite happily.

There are bedbugs in the beds in this hotel. First, we stayed in room 34 and after the first night we got rashes. At first, we thought they were mosquito bites. After the second night we got more rashes. Really terrible! We complained to the hotel, after the 3rd night and they said they didn’t have a n empty room to change our room. They changed our room for the 5th and last night of our stay. Still, we got more bed bites and really bad skin allergic reaction to bug bites. When we came back home, we went to see doctors immediately. We ended up missing one day of work and paying to so much money for different medications. Overall, this hotel ruined our experience of visiting London.

During my stay, I was subjected to highly unsanitary and unsafe conditions, which included a bed bug infestation as visible in the attached images (documenting both the mattress with droppings and a captured insect). This resulted in considerable distress, insect bites, and loss of sleep. The room also suffered from suffocating air quality, outdated décor, and poor customer service—despite my reservation for a ‘garden view’ room, I was assigned a basement room with no garden view whatsoever. These conditions clearly violate the Consumer Rights Act 2015 (UK), which requires services to be provided with reasonable care, skill, and as Accommodation with visible dirt/droppings, poor sanitation protocols, and misleading room allocation is both unfit for habitation and a breach of contract. Specifically: - The mattress had clear stains and droppings, as shown in my photos. - Bed bugs were found on-site and caused insect bites while staying in the room. - The air in the assigned room was stifling, with no ventilation or reasonable comfort. - The decor and overall maintenance were outdated and unacceptable for the advertised standards. - Staff failed to provide adequate support or respond effectively to complaints. - The room allocated was not as described or ordered (a ‘garden view’), but a basement, further adding to the inconvenience and loss of enjoyment.

Could be cleaner, dead animals, bathroom is so small I couldn't really fit, and the shower door wouldn't shut so basically couldn't wash as there wasn't enough room. Over all I would stay again but would choose a bigger room.

Quiet and clean. Negative, no breakfast, reception frequently unmanned - they need a bell not a phone number that goes to answer machine (don't they understand the basics of running a hotel?)

We arrived around midnight due to a flight delay and immediately faced issues—there was no ramp, only stairs, making it hard to carry luggage. Our room was in terrible condition, frankly uninhabitable: stained sheets, broken heater door, small holes in walls, curtains falling apart, and a jammed door that trapped us inside for over 10 minutes. The phone and outlets didn’t work, and WiFi was weak since our room was in the basement. No one answered our calls to the front desk, and with the hotel fully booked, there were no other options. Our first night was Trashed! Luckily, I negotiated with Expedia Agent and got re-booked to a great hotel, Best Western in Chiswick Palace for our remaining stay!
