Pros:

Πολύ κοντά σε μετρό και στάσεις λεωφορείων με εύκολη πρόσβαση στο κέντρο

Cons:

Απορώ αν στα δωμάτια καθαριζανε, είχε 2 κουβαδάκια ένα στο δωμάτιο ένα στο μπάνιο. Του δωματίου δεν το άδειασαν κατά τη διαμονή μας, τη λεκάνη και τον νιπτήρα δεν τα καθάρισαν καθόλου. Απλά έμπαιναν και συμμαζευαν το κρεββάτι.

We were able to get everywhere easily but struggled to sleep due to broken air conditioning.
Pros:

The bed was comfy.
Close to Earls Court tube station.

Cons:

The air conditioning was broken on the day London hit 35degrees C. A fan was provided but it didn’t make much difference. We hardly slept.

Very little sleep due to heat (no air con) and very noisy. Location good though.
Pros:

The location

Cons:

Air con wasn't working during a heatwave so unbearable in room. Very noisy in the hotel and outside with traffic. Couldn't open window due to scaffolding . The doors made a continuous beeping noise when opened so all night you could hear guests going in and out of rooms. Bathroom modern but not clean.

Only if you are on a tight budget
Pros:

Compared to London this was the most affordable accomodation in the city with good connection. Wifi was stable. The bed was clean and the personal was always polite and friendly. Tesco express is nearby.

Cons:

The glasses were not clean. No AC (there was a fan however). It was very loud (often ambulances, loud cars during the night). The sink was incredibly small and the water in the shower was not possible to adapt (either freezing or boiling).

Nie wieder!
Pros:

Die Lage ist das einzige was für das Hôtel spricht. Sonst war es das schmutzigste, katastrophalster Hotel was ich jemals hatte!

Cons:

Es war extrem schmutzig und ein Bett 1,20m wurde als Doppelbett verkauft. Die Zimmer sind extrem kleine abstell - Kammern. Ausser dem Bett war dort für nix weiteres Platz. Wir wussten nicht wo wir die Koffer abstellen sollen. Mobiliar war kaputt Garderobe, Lavabo verstopft!!!

Cons:

We stayed two days in 35 degrees heat and the air conditioning was broken.
We had to stay away from the hotel for as long as possible as it was unbearable being in the room.
£2.50 for a small bottle of chilled water. They should have been giving it away.
We had to sleep on wet towels to try and keep cool at night.
