Pros:

Location was fantastic for walking through central London. The room was spacious and clean with everything we needed. The staff were friendly and very helpful. I would definitely stay there again

Cons:

as we arrived early, an earlier check in would have been really appreciated, as we had to walk around London for 6 hours before we could check in and shower.

Stanza grande buona posizione
Pros:

Camera molto grande e pulita, posizione buona vicino al centro e con due fermate degli autobus molto vicine.

Cons:

Purtroppo con l'ondata di caldo di questo anno l'aria condizionata sarebbe stata utile. Bagno un po' datata e acqua non caldissima.

Great location, friendly staff, clean and tidy - just a little outdated.
Pros:

The location was amazing. Only a 20 minute walk from Euston station, 45 mins to Camden market and 15 mins away from Oxford street. It was a very clean and safe feeling location. We also got the tube to Wembley and this was easy enough to get to from the hotel. It was clean and the check in and check out process was easy and quick. Staff were also friendly.

Cons:

It felt a little outdated but that doesn’t matter much to me. Location and cleanliness is the main thing I look for in a property.

Pros:

The water pressure was great and the location was good for what we needed

Cons:

There was a mess up with my reservation due to someone being place in my assigned room which lost my reservation in the system which meant they were unable to see my booking at all , I didnt appreciate that I only know this information because I overheard the receptionists talking, nothing was explained to me and there was no compensation offered for their mess up

Unterm Strich viel zu teuer
Pros:

Großes Zimmer, Bad und Bett. Blick auf grünen Hinterhof. Hotel mit altmodischem Charme.

Cons:

24 h Lärm durch vermutlich Wasserrohre. Schimmelige Fugen im Bad, viele in reparierte Beschädigungen. Sauberkeit lässt zu wünschen übrig.

Der Hammer: Im Zentrum von London, im Herzen Englands zahlt man für ein "English Breakfast" extra!? Was ich in jedem Hotel, das ich bislang auf dem Kontinent besucht habe, als Selbstverständlichkeit bekommen habe!? Bacon, Würstchen, Ei in jeder Form ist Standard allüberall, aber am englischsten aller Orte zahle ich dafür drauf!? Dazu ist das "Continental Breakfast" in der Auswahl so spärlich, dass man sich für den Übernachtungspreis echt schämen sollte.

I never stayed because it was so awful
Pros:

I left the hotel as soon as I got there because the facilities were not fit for humans.

Cons:

Air conditioning is a must in these times. It is not ok for a hotel in this modern age to be without it. Add to that windows that you aren’t able yo open!
