Ideal for a short stay

Excellent location and price just too hot!! Basic hotel but clean and the breakfast was ideal for a freebie

Good budget hotel for a short stay

The hotel is very conveniently located, a mere 2 min stroll away from Earls Court tube station but in a quiet side street. The hotel itself is quite old, but they do their utmost to keep it clean throughout. The room I stayed in was small, with the sink in the room itself. The bathroom is ok with a good power shower. The reception staff was friendly and eager to help. Don´t be fooled by the mention of complimentary internet in the rooms, that´s not the case. You have to buy vouchers to go online, which are quite expensive. Breakfast is included and reasonable, nothing out of the ordinary though. If you book early enough this is a cheaply priced accommodation in central London (zone 2), very close to the Natural History Museum and Royal Albert Hall, and a 10-15 min tube ride away from Oxford Circus.

Nice hotel

We wanted a hotel close to the Tube and Earl's Court and this one was perfect being a few minutes walk from both. Our room was small but very clean and in good order. Breakfast was good with plenty of choice.

No hot water bad service and lumpy beds Never again

Ok, 1st the good: Great location Clean Decent price Now for the rest: There was no hot water for the last day of our stay. We called at 10pm to alert staff. Found out the next morning that while this was 'noted', nothing was done. In fact all that needed to be done was to restart the boiler (maintenance told us this the next morning) Unfortunately, by the time this was done (9am), it would take 2 hours for the boiler to warm up. Thus all guests checking out or heading out for biz (us) were screwed. Why wasn't the issue taken care of the night the problem was reported??? The beds were horrible: mattresses sunken in with springs poking out everywhere. From the moment we walked in, we got a frosty reception, and our request for free internet was dealt with in almost an angry manner. No excuse for the handling of the hot water situation. If this is my business, I'm refunding and someone is getting reprimanded/warned/fired. Inexcusable.
