Good location but not more
Pros:

Excellent location as I was going to the Queens Championship so it was perfect and in general a good location in a nice building.

Cons:

Reception was not available at 15:00 had to wait to be checked in; also the rooms is not sound proof; I could hear everyone coming in and out and also all sort of activities in the other rooms until late night, but the worst part is the way they clean the rooms; it looks clean but then you feel everything is cover in some sort of layer of whatever product they use that makes things slightly slippery as well as sticky; it is very unpleasant, had to use either shoes inside or wall on top of the towels that I put on the floor.

We were disappointed.
Pros:

The location was great as it was near to avenue we attended to see a show called Chat Noir

Cons:

The shower was dreadful and was only a trickle. There was a strong smell of mustiness being in the basement, which was supposed to be a better room as the one we booked online didn’t show on their booking system when we arrived.

Comfortable and convenient
Pros:

Great location, spotless and nice modern decor. Lovely staff.

Cons:

I'm not sure if all the rooms are the same but the top floor room I was in was extremely warm throughout the night. The fan provided wasn't the best even on the highest setting so an upgrade would be a good idea

Pros:

- L'emplacement
- Le confort de la chambre

Cons:

- À l'étage, tout le système de chaufferie en face des chambres chauffe l'étage ainsi que le système de plomberie dans les murs qui irradie dans la chambre (L'hiver cela doit être sympathique mais pas au printemps/été quand on rentre dans la chambre se rafraîchir) Le miroir de la salle de bain était bouillant.
- Autre problème de plomberie, la chambre a été inondée un matin. Aucune explication de la part du personnel
- Aucune aide ni solution n'a été apporté par la cheffe d'établissement uniquement joignable par téléphone quand elle veut bien répondre.

C'est dommage car cette maison/hôtel aurait pu une bonne adresse bon marché, mais au moindre problème vous êtes seuls à gérer

Staff inesistente e servizio inesistente
Pros:

Buona

Cons:

Servizio assolutamente inesistente, come lo staff che di fatto non esiste. In 3 giorni nessuno si è mai affacciato in camera per portare un telo o magari fare un cambio lenzuola o dare una spazzata al pavimento. Assolutamente niente.
Questa struttura non si può classificare come hotel, ma è solo un semplice affittacamere.

Normally an ok place to stay, but this time i was dissapointed and felt mildly cheated.
Pros:

I have stayed at Marldon Olympia on numerous occassions and found it to be a 7 - comfortable enough, clean, in a seemingly safe area and in walking distance to public transport. Exactly as presented on the images.

Cons:

On my last visit, I was assigned a groundfloor room with access to a backyard garden area. The cleaning staff asked if they could walk through my room to gain access to the garden, where there was a shed with a washing machine. There was no other window so through the night I was not able to have fresh air - I am not keen on sleeping with an exit door open! The overall state of the room was not good. The only electrical plug was near floor in the corner, so if you wanted to use the kettle you had to put the kettle on the floor. The chair provided was old and very dirty. The bathroom door did not close properly. The plumbing for the shower is done so poorly that there is no access to cold water - the temperature gets scalding hot almost immediately, making it near impossible to shower. There was no bedside table, lamp or space in the bathroom for one's toiletries. Overall, the space was clean however the maintenance (plumbing, electrical set up, wiring, painting/decorating and install of cabinets, etc) is appalling, leaving one wondering if there is a potential fire hazard due to poor electrical wiring, for example.
On this occasion, I am giving the Mardlon Olympia Hotel a score of 4.

Extremely clean and tidy. Excellent rate and fantastic location.
Pros:

Lovely room and big sash window.
Very clean and excellent location and price range.

Cons:

No remote control in the bedroom and had to ask multiple times until the staff member begrudgingly gave me the one for the "staff" room! She said it was always left in the room, I said it clearly wasn't and in such high temperatures in London I wouldn't be going out much so needed a remote control for the television. She tried to blame a member of cleaning staff "who may have taken it home with them" but wasn't answering her phone!!
A nice fan in the room but it was 36 degrees so air con would be a bonus (2 other residents I bumped into where really unhappy about this).
Hairdryer was broken. Could hear a loose part in it and turned it on and a very strong smell of burning so quickly turned it off.
