Not good

Old tavern with about 10 hotel rooms. View from the room was bad and windows were broken, holes in the bathroom, old and crappy. Not the most expensive hotel, but hotel was worse then expected. Rooms were noisy.

Not anything like the description on the site

The picture is not of the actual Hotel. The room was dirty and the bathroom/shower was not usable. There was nothing in the room like a kettle or an hairdryer. Stay well clear from this place

It was a horrible experience as I found the hotel locked when I arrived there around 10pm. Nobody turned up or pick up phone at customer service. I needed to book another hotel while standing outside in order to avoid the cold night out.

Comfortable, clean bed and towels. Hot shower. Good location for Westfield and the station if you’re going further afield (central London only 30 mins away on Elizabeth line). Traditional boozer downstairs…. Perfect.
