Pros:

Buena ubicación/precio.

Cons:

A nuestra llegada no entendíamos las reseñas bajas, estábamos contentos con la calidad/precio que habíamos pagado teniendo en cuenta que era una semana antes del viaje.
La segunda noche, al volver de estar todo el día fuera, no teníamos toallas. Tuvimos que rogar para que nos dieran una aunque fuera. La mañana siguiente tomamos un café de los proporcionados por el hotel en la habitación y al volver por la noche, la taza seguía ahí. Ese día nos volvieron a dejar una única toalla siendo dos personas, pasamos de reclamar otra vez.

Awful. Never again and I’d advise anyone & everyone to avoid staying at this hotel.
Pros:

It was tidy.

Cons:

The kettle didn’t work & I asked for it to be replaced 4 times. I purchased a phone charger power lead that mysteriously disappeared from my room. Also the bedside light didn’t work.

A comfortable stay in a great location with friendly staff.
Pros:

The hotel is in a great location with easy access to public transport and nearby attractions. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the room was clean and comfortable. Check-in and check-out were smooth, making the stay convenient.

Cons:

The room was a bit small, and there was some noise from outside at times. The Wi-Fi could also be more reliable. Other than that, everything was satisfactory.

Absolutel rubbish. Don’t bother.
Pros:

I have stayed in probably 100’s of hotels in my many years of travelling but this is by far the worst I’ve experienced. I told the various staff that my kettle didn’t work at least 4 times without a replacement although I was told the receptionist Karma that I could take hot water back to my room. I couldn’t be bothered so ended up buying a coffee which cost me £4.
Then when I got back to the room on my second day the charging lead I’d purchased the previous day another £12 mysteriously disappeared in my absence. Karma assured me that no cleaning staff would have removed the lead suggesting I’m either a fool or a liar.
To be fair I probably should’ve looked at the 2.6 star reviews before I booked.
What an absolute shambles of a hotel.
Oh & the bedside light didn’t work either but I’d given up hope by that point. £16 down angry it’s almost ruined my experience of South Kensington. Almost.

Good value for a London break
Pros:

This hotel was excellent value for money. It was clean, beds made and toiletries and tea replaced daily. Enough space for our belongings though not much room to walk round to the other side of the bed. Good location around 5 minutes walk to Gloucester Road tube station. Staff were very friendly and polite. It does not serve breakfast but coffee shops, a Waitrose and cafes nearby.

Cons:

The room is a bit small but OK for a solo traveller.

Just adequate
Pros:

It was a place to stay in London that was not too expensive and was close to public transport and places to eat

Cons:

The room I was given was very tiny - basically only enough room for a short single bed. The single narrow window opened on to a brick-lined light well. Although the room had an air conditioner, it was not adjustable for temperature. The bathroom sink drained very slowly and the shower head sprayed more water to the side than from its centre.

A cheap hotel that, while not the Ritz, was good enough.
Pros:

Central, close to Gloucester Road station and Earls Court. Friendly. Relatively cheap. I got a family room so lots of room. I liked the little table and chairs, so I could open the windows fully and take in London. Tea and coffee making facilites. Storage for bags until check in.

Cons:

The bed was rock hard. A lot of noise from outside. Windows not double glazed. The toilet seat was broken. There was tea or coffee spattered up the walls, that hadn’t been washed off. Check in not until 3pm, but check out 10.30am.

Ok for what we needed, a bed.
Pros:

Location is good, and the rooms are OK, clean and reasonably comfortable. Very basic, but met our needs as we were there for just 1 night for a concert.

Cons:

No facilities whatsover. No breakfast possible in the hotel, everything very basic. The staff are pleasant, but not all on the front desk are fluent in English.

Flott og greit hotell, til en veldig billig penge
Pros:

Veldig mange hjelpsomme resepsjonister som var der for hva enn vi trengte. Vi fikk legge fra baggasjen både når vi kom og når vi skulle hjem igjen. Rommet var fint og sengene var komfortable. Beliggenheten var nærme undergrunnen som var veldig pluss.

Cons:

Det var litt skittent på badet osv. Utsikten var dårlig da vi hadde rom i første etasje. Det var også veldig lytt og det hørtes ut som de over oss ommøblerte hver kveld.
