İyi
Pros:

Konumu harikaydı. Earl’s court metro istasyonuna 2 dakika yürüme mesafesinde. Gezilecek tüm yerlere çok yakın metro ile.

Cons:

Aşırı küçük ve havasızdı. Klima var ama yine de uyutmadı. Ve duş başlığı çalışmadı

You pay for the location.
Pros:

It is a great location, really close to the underground with the Picadilly and District lines. The room has good AC which was quite handy during the heat wave.

Cons:

The room is really small, I made the mistake of not checking the google reviews before booking and then realised what I was in for. When I entered my room I understood, it is really really small, I couldn't even get my arms fully up, because the celing was low. The mattress was really uncomfortable, the wifi was really bad and barely worked (I tried connecing to all of them). My room was on the 1st floor and I my window face the railway, so I could hear the trains, this in itself wasn't as bad because I have deep sleep, but for a light sleeper it could be challenging. The door to the bathroom couldn't even open all the way, it would stop halfway at the sink, so you had to enter, close the door and then access the shower, which to my surprise flooded the bathroom when I showered.

Gute Lage in der Nähe der Underground Station Earl's Court
Pros:

Uns wurde ein Basement Zimmer im Untergeschoss zugewiesen. Am Anfang fanden wir es nicht so gut (dunkel, muffiger Geruch), haben uns aber damit gut arrangiert, da wir nur zum Schlafen dort waren. Da wir aber während der grossen Hitzewelle bei 35 Grad C dort waren, war es letztendlich doch noch die beste Wahl, denn mit der guten Klimaanlage und ohne direkte Sonneneinstrahlung konnte das Zimmer verhältnismässig kühl gehalten werden. Das englischeFrühstück war lecker und das Personal war nett. Das Zimmer war sauber.

Cons:

Das Badezimmer war mit ca. 2 Quadratmetern sehr klein. Allerdings war es modern eingerichtet und jede Ecke wurde sinnvoll ausgenutzt mit Tablaren und Haken für die Handtücher (je 1 Duschtuch pro Person). Persönlich hätte ich noch ein zusätzliches kleines Handtuch für die Hände geschätzt. Was ich hingegen wirklich vermisste, war eine Toilettenbürste.
Im Zimmer selber waren einige Bodenplatten zerbrochen (Schneidegefahr bei nackten Füssen). Bitte unbedingt ersetzen.

Not worth the money BUT ideally located.
Pros:

Beautiful place, very convenient. Comfy bed.

Cons:

Our room!

Tatty furniture, only one side table which meant one of us didn’t have water or our phone charging next to us. The shower door was broken, light by the room door wasn’t working. Basin was cracked.

It wasn’t a stay, as the room was unusable!
Pros:

Close to the train station

Cons:

Air con was broken, the room was over 30 degrees so could not use it & spent most of the night sat in reception or outside as no other rooms were available, shower was broken so barely worked. Lovely staff in the hotel very empathetic & apologetic, however shockingly poor management, after sending two emails about this to find a resolution I have continued to be ignored, booking.com rapidly raised a complaint too & they have also been ignored. Please do not waste your money & book an alternative!

Pros:

The staff was pleasant and helpful.

Cons:

My room was right next to the staircase, which meant there was constant noise from other guests coming and going. The window opened onto a dirty ledge, and the curtain was annoyingly close to the pillow.

We will never use this hotel again.
Pros:

It was near to local amenities and the tube station.

Cons:

The room was very small, the bed was just placed on a made up wooden stilts, the bathroom was very dated and the bath all stained with fixtures falling apart. The air con was stick together with masking tape, it also failed to work making an already small room really hot and stuffy. Very noisy with trains passing every 10 to 20mins. The Breakfast area stinks of rotton veg, and the food was freezing cold. In general the hotel was far too over priced. We would never recommend or use this hotel again.

Good location and transport links.
Pros:

Close to restaurants, bars, shops, London tube system

Cons:

The room was very small. The bed was abnormally high. The bathroom contained all the usual facilities in a very confined space.. The breakfast was adequate. Not much choice.

Minuscule chambre proche du métro
Pros:

Proximité avec la ligne picadilly

Cons:

Chambre minuscule, cloisons trop fines, on entend les chasses d’eau et le train comme si ils étaient dans la chambre. Salle de bain où on peut à peine se retourner, lit d’1M de haut, la porte de la SDB ne s’ouvre pas complètement
