Az elhelyezkedes miatt mondanam jonak. Amugy arra eppen jo, hogy 1-2 ejszakat ott aludjon az ember
Pros:

Nagyon jo elhelyezkedes, sok ettetem a kozelben. Metro stb.

Cons:

Se keztorlo, se kilepo, igy sokszor tiszta viz volt minden a furdoben.

Prima verblijf, voldeed aan de verwachtingen, simpel maar wel schoon.
Pros:

Het hotel en de kamer waren zoals verwacht; simpel doch doeltreffend. De kamer, badkamer en het bed waren klein en er waren wat (roest)plekken, maar alles zag er schoon uit en het rook prima. Er was een waterkoker die er als nieuw uitzag. De temperatuur tijdens ons verblijf was rond de 20 graden. In de kamer was het ook een prima temperatuur. Het raam kon open en we hoorden wel het verkeer, maar daar hadden wij verder geen last van. En gelukkig hadden we een wereldstekker mee, want er zijn alleen Engelse stopcontacten.

Cons:

Het bed had een dik, stevig matras op een harde onderkant, dus niet heel comfortabel. Maar het was prima voor de twee nachten dat we er waren, we hebben evengoed goed geslapen. De kussens waren wel heel comfortabel. Oja, en we misten een haakje voor de handdoek, en misschien een klein handdoekje voor bij de wastafel. Nu waren er alleen twee grote douchehanddoeken, die schoon en zacht waren, dus heerlijk voor na het douchen.

Stay here if you want a bad back and no sleep!
Pros:

Room was clean

Cons:

Check-in took over half hour as receptionist was incompetent
The bed was like sleeping on a slab of concrete!
7am I could hear people having showers and doors slamming it felt like I was in a hostel.
All your fire doors are fire doors for a reason but all were open and unlocked which wouldn’t help your guests in a fire with all your combustible materials in the cupboards, I’m surprised you haven’t had a visit from the fire brigade!
The carpet down to the basement where my room was! was rotten and needed a good clean as did the hand rail
Apart from that all was great 😊
I went home tired, needing physio and now got my application in for PIP!

Pros:

Ευγένεια καθαριότητα παροχές.

Cons:

Το δωμάτιο ήταν ημιυπόγειο, δεν το γνώριζα. Επίσης όποιο μέσο τύπου ασθενοφόρο η αστυνομία κτλ όταν περνούσε από το σημείο χρησικοποιούσε σειρήνες για να προηγηθεί. Αυτό ήταν πολύ ενοχλητικό. Δεν αφορά το κατάλυμα βέβαια

To be honest it was a bit noisy

Pros:

We used the room as we had an event to attend at the Empress Museum. It was a convenient location. The room and bathroom were clean and all the basics for a short stay were there. Mattress was comfortable. It was good value for money overall considering that it was London.

Cons:

The Internet didn't work, which was annoying. There was nowhere to put our clothes away, but as we were only there for one night, we didn't care. There was no mattress protector, which made us feel uneasy when we realised this. The drain in the bathroom was quite smelly. Again, for the price and the convenience, this was a satisfactory experience for us.

Pros:

Safe, clean, decor and bathroom nice.
Small but perfect for what I needed.
Staff really helpful with luggage and storing and helping me with what I needed.
Location great for busses and tubes and walking to South Ken for museums.
Would stay again.

Cons:

If I was to stay again I would pack earplugs, due to the rooms being small and company with each other noise travelled ( slamming doors etc)
It wouldn't put me off staying but would make stay more comfortable.

Pros:

A szobák felszereltsége megfelelő, a tisztaság is elfogadható. A személyzet segítőkész, van lehetőség a csomagok megőrzésére, ha korábban érkezünk.

Cons:

A szoba kicsit hangos, és kicsi volt. A falak és ajtók nem túl zajszigeteltek.

Pros:

Very convenient location: close to Underground but quiet.

Cons:

A bit spartan. Three floors without a lift may be somewhat straining with a big luggage.
