The staff was great our room was booked wrong so the reception staff split the bed and remade the room. The hotel is old and tired. Good location.

Staff was especially nice and helpful!! Room was clean and loved the bath tub! Breakfast was great. Very basic accommodation but if you are only sleeping there and don't need anything fancy, then this is perfect. Also literally only a few steps to the train.

The hotel is in the middle of a construction area when I was there. But it was not a messy neighbourhood -- just a couple blocks to all the stores. It is right beside the Chairing Cross station which was very convenient for the trains. The first floor room I first received was very basic. The 11th floor room I stayed at later was very good. Front staff were very friendly and helpful. Monika )I believe her name) was very, very good!

Liked: Cleanliness
It’s conveniently located, central to everything. Upper floors were quiet and it’s a place to sleep. Just know that. Its affordability slightly outweighs its detractors. The pillows were… the lumpiest & flattest you will encounter. The rooms are exhausted. The lift was an annoyance, one was flat out of service, the other didn’t go to the lobby. It was a game of button pressing and riding up to go down. Staff gave no warning of this. I think because of its affordability, it’s a sort of temporary living situation for people in between housing. Nothing felt sketchy but this probably won’t sit right with the pearl clutchers out there.
