I was fully satisfied with my stay. The room was clean, staff were nice and accommodating was nice! The room was a bit small but for the price I paid, it was perfect. Keep in mind that
You get what you pay for, but there's really nothing wrong with it. Clean and functional. Bed is really firm and uncomfortable though

Love the location. Near transport and lots of restaurants.
The hotel itself was pretty basic. The room was tiny and not the cleanest.
Good for a short term stay if you just need a bed for the night.

I would recommend! It was super close to the train station and the 24 bus which takes you to the big ben and soho. The room was small and not in super clean condition but it was definitely worth the cost. Room has a fridge which was super nice and is right around the corner of a grocery store and lots of restaurants!

The staff was friendly and was not hesitate to provide additional bath towels and coffee cups when being asked. The room we stayed was too small.
I thought this was a very reasonably priced hotel considering it is literally 5 mins walk from Victoria! Room was fine - memory foam mattress meant a good night's sleep. Shower was nice and powerful, there was a fridge and a tv so overall I was happy.
Only very slight thing was there didn't seem to be a remote for the tv but that was a minor thing.
Shops near by. Room basic but clean.
Very tired looking decor. Reception staff not very friendly, or helpful. Very Noisy in the morning, someone trying our door several times which was annoying.
Trip hazards on arrival, sheets on stairs, towels on corridor floor. I know it was value for money but expected it to be a bit better.

Liked: Cleanliness
I was here just for a night and the room was fine for what I needed. The only thing that did make a negative impact on me was the young man on the reception desk when I checked in. He did not stop his telephone conversation, he just checked me in and did what he needed to do while continuing to speak on the phone. It came across as very rude. Apart from that it was better than a lot of the reviews said.

Run-down, basic, no frills. Managed to have a shower during one of my three attempts, the rest of the time there was no hot water. OK for a couple of days, wouldn’t stay longer. Great location.
Located close to Victoria station and bus transportation. But, the stairs and rooms are a bit small for our family of 4.
Please note some rooms may not have bathrooms and people use tiny shared bathroom. We had reserved a room with bathroom.
