Numerous comments describe staff as friendly, helpful, and exceptionally kind; a small number mentioned unfriendly staff, but overall service sentiment is positive.
Location
9
Consistently praised as an outstanding, highly convenient location near Earl's Court and the tube (2–5 minute walk); location is a major strength.
Room Quality

Recurring complaints about very small rooms (typical London size/‘shoebox’) and some noise/poor views, though some guests noted modern, well-appointed and comfortable rooms; overall mixed-to-low on room size and layout.

Ok
Pros:

Locatie is fantastisch

Cons:

Wij hadden een slaapbank als bed ipv een bed (wat wel in de omschrijving stond). Na een nacht slechte slaap werden de kamers gewisseld en kregen we een kamer waarvan het raam geen uitzicht had en alle riolering onder het raam door liep. Dat geeft wel stank en geluid, maar met raam dicht houden was het te doen

The location is exceptional and the room typically London, in general it was ok as we were the whole day out
Pros:

The location, the bed, the bathroom

Cons:

The room in the basement and the discharge pipes really noisy in the small patio, annoying. The room was always too warm and no AC but we solved it opening the room door and the patio door for a while to renew the air

Hotel molto pulito, confortevole, ottima posizione, zona molto bella
Pros:

La pulizia, la posizione vicinissima alla metro e al centro

Cons:

Abbiamo chiesto piu volte di riparare le lampade lettura ai lati del letto e non è stato fatto. Le abbiamo trovate non funzionanti e siamo andati via che stavano ancora così, pur avendolo fatto presente al personale di reception

Localización
Pros:

Las instalaciones parecen nuevas. El hotel está bastante bien, la habitación es pequeña, pero tiene de todo. Limpian todos los días la habitación. La localización es lo mejor, está a 3 minutos andando del metro.

Cons:

La cama no es cómoda y hace mucho ruido.

Pros:

Perfecte locatie, om.de hoek bij het metrostation. Van daaruit is heel Londen binnen korte tijd bereikbaar. Leuke buurt. Winkels, restaurants en pubs binnen 2 minuten lopen. Nette kamer, schone badkamer, lijkt pas gerenoveerd. Personeel is vriendelijk, je kunt je bagage opslaan.

Cons:

Eigenlijk niets. Ik was geschrokken van de beoordelingen op Google maar wij hebben daar niets van gemerkt.
