Misleading Listing – Not Suitable for Couples

We were very disappointed to discover on check-in that the bathroom was shared — something that was not clearly stated in the listing. I was travelling with my wife, and sharing a bathroom with strangers was not acceptable to us. As a result, we had no choice but to leave immediately. We requested a refund due to the misleading information, but this was refused. If you're a couple looking for privacy and comfort, do yourself a favour and avoid this place — it is not suitable for couples, and the listing does not reflect the reality.

Horrific not even worth £5 never seen anything like it. The young man behind the desk was lovely and helped get us a night at the sister hotel lucky 8. Much better but still in no way worth what we paid. Also family friendly is a joke we were woken up by a fire alarm at 1am which was from someone else smoking in a separate building. The man that came out just said go back in its nothing, yet hadn't even found out what set it off in the first place. Drug dealers arguing outside and we heard everything. Not OK at all and requesting a full refund.

Cheap.

Tired and run down and desperately in need of a lick of paint but the room was clean enough. Bedding and towels were fresh. Check in was a bit of a pain as I don’t have a photo ID and they took £50 deposit in cash but it was returned in the morning. Toilets lacked toilet paper and the “clientele” were apparently unable to work out how to flush. The night was quieter than I expected and I slept well. Overall, you get what you pay for and this is the lower end of the market. Fine for one night.

This is good property for budgetary room in London and more space in room size for move around, easy access to trains and shops, needs bathroom fittings and cleanliness to be done twice a day... entry and leaving to be monitored from unknown visitors, room key are manual needs key card access to all facilities this will improve this place, toilets are limited and not cleaned on daily basis, fire alarm goes on in the night too.. taking deposit to be avoided , else very friendly Propety and closer to all major shops and connectivity to central London trains which is best to live with budget room.. I stayed for 7days which is very interesting to learn about this property.. homely atmosphere.. 😀👏👍
