Too hot no human interaction
Pros:

Nothing only good thing was the location. Far too hot to sleep in a room with no windows in a basement. Pretty sure when I booked the price was £130 somehow I’ve been charged £180

Cons:

Waited 20 or so minutes for a reply nearly ended up in the student accommodation next door as the wrong adress is on booking.com
Would have been bearable if they had towels but some reason there wasn’t any

While there was free water and Pepsi in the building. I didn’t feel my son and I were totally safe in the event of fire.
Pros:

Free drinks in the kitchen and location to Hyde park

Cons:

We were in the basement and there was no air circulation. There were holes in the walls and the large mirror kept on falling down on me. The bathroom was dirty with broken tiles and door lock. There was no information on fire escapes etc. so so hot

Absolutely terrible and disgusting from start to finish
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Was disgusted with how dirty everything was floor all sticky and towels dirty actually couldn’t believe it. Kip
Was no one at reception, left sign on door to ring this number for your lock box number went straight to voicemail waiting hours to get through to them. Was a horrible experience and me and my friends are not fussy just wanted a place to put our heads down for one night but this place was rotten

Extremely Disappointing room.
Pros:

The location was good
Bottles of water available at the entrance. Had to help yourself.
Large quantity of toilet paper. (6 rolls)
Selection of brand crisps. Approximately 10 little cakes available.
Clean bedding

Cons:

There was no email or any form of communication to advise me of the precise location of the hotel. No communication of the access code for the building or advising which room my daughter and I had been booked into. I had to call the contact number to find this out. When I sent a message via booking.com to ask for the access code again, I didn't get any reply. Thankfully, there was another guest there who was able to advise me.

The room door DID NOT lock. No security at all. I had to use the door chain and place an obstacle in front of the door.

The room was extremely dated.
Room had a musty damp smell. Walls were flaking. The bathroom door wouldn't close. Bathroom dated. The cupboard under the sink was rotting
Broken bedside drawers. (Handle hanging off)
The flooring was old lifting laminate

Only 1 towel was provided for 2 people. There were no hand towels or a towel to place on the floor.

No kettle available.
No iron available

It wasn't very clean

The photos on the booking site do not match the room that I was allocated.

I am unable to load any photos to show what kind of accommodation I was offered.

I was very disappointed with the room I was given. I felt that my booking was forgotten and an extremely substandard room was given. There was nobody on site to help with any queries. Only a mobile number to ring.

Very poor
Pros:

The location was the one thing I truly appreciated about this accommodation!

Cons:

Communication with the hotel prior to our stay was nonexistent, making it very difficult to get any information in advance. Without reading reviews from previous guests, I wouldn't have even known where the entrance was, as there was no visible signage. The property appeared not to have been cleaned in years, which significantly impacted our overall experience. Additionally, the room was extremely small, and we had no choice but to keep our luggage on the beds due to a lack of space.

اقامه سئيه جدا جدا واتمني أن الا اعود إلي ذلك المكان القذر
Pros:

Nothing I liked about that dirty place. I booked a double bed with a bathroom inside the room. They gave me a room for six people. The smell was very bad. I called the housing manager and told him to change the room, but he did not do that. He ignored me as if I was nothing. I gave him more money than he was entitled to, and he did not return the rest of my money to me. It is a very bad place, and I hope it is closed so that other people like me and my wife do not go there.

Cons:

The place is dirty and does not meet anyone's requests and the room's appearance is not as it appears in the application It has a very bad smell.
