The staff were absolutely brilliant but the bed was uncomfortable. The room was cold and the main reason was that the radiator was blocked by the bed.

Nice hotel. Only stayed for the one night hence why our room was very basic. No complaints, you get what you pay for. More than sufficient for 1 night.

Booked the day before for a last min trip. Bargain price in January. Friendly helpful staff. We were early for checkin but just wanted to drop a bag off to go out for the day but our room was ready so we were able to go straight to it. It was a cold room on 7th floor, but there was an oil heater in the room which I’m glad I put on before we went out to take the chill out the air for coming back in. Had we waited until we got in it would’ve been freezing. There’s only one lift which is really slow and small 3/4 people max, 2 with luggage, so you may need to wait a while for it if you are unable to use the stairs especially At checkout times. Room was ideal near Holborn station and Russel square, 10/15min walk from Euston station. 15min walk to Covent Garden. Lots of eating places/coffee shops on your doorstep. Perfect for a one night 2 day trip to London and would use again if I was able to source again a cheap price.

Location is very good , clean rooms . The only thing is the shower, difficult to check the temperature without being inside the shower due the shower head point out to the door, all the water comes out. Good hotel If you want to spend 1,2 nights in London.

Staff kind and helpful. Room on floor one fine except for a noise that I suspect emanates from a neighbouring building. But I slept well on the second night, notwithstanding.

I recently stayed at this hotel and it was one of the most disappointing experiences I’ve ever had. The value for money is absolutely nonexistent. They assign rooms on the 5th and 7th floors, yet the elevators have reportedly been out of service for at least two weeks. Carrying luggage up and down multiple floors was unacceptable for the price point.they are not offering help rooms shown online are clearly from the few renovated units, but the majority of the rooms are old, worn out, and far from clean. The carpets and curtains were stained and smelled unpleasant. There is no air conditioning, which is shocking for any modern hotel. The windows are like museum style wooden frames that barely open or close, letting in cold air and outside noise. Another strange detail: instead of providing complimentary water, they started to sell a week before and sell them .The towels had no fresh scent and felt poorly maintained. The bed was extremely small, barely the size of a single bed, and not even stable. The base slides to the sides with the slightest movement, making it impossible to sleep comfortably. Overall, this hotel fails in all basic standards of comfort, cleanliness, and service. I would strongly advise future guests to avoid this place there are far better options in the same area for the same or even lower price. I wish I had seen an honest review before booking; hopefully, this helps someone else.

The lift was out of action, which seemed to have been for more than a day or so. Although the room had a nice corner window the floor was squeaky walking in it and throughout the night you could hear those above you as they moved around. Stains on the carpet. The bathroom was also awkward where you walked in and had to be an acrobat around the door. Perhaps it was just unlucky…… it was room 303.
