the location
Room was a little small and tired looking . Needs some painting . The bathroom door was full of filler yet to painted .
Breakfast only had a very small selection of poor quality food.
3.8
24 hours reception, competitive price, great cleaness (both bed & rest room) and TV with many channels.
Some sound from ceiling or from air condition (not sure). It may be the case for just the room I stayed not other rooms.

Great location and friendly staff.
Carpet is worn out and felt dirty. And the room was a bit dusty.
3.8
The location are great, the staff are great, and the value for the money are great! At this price, in this area, you can`t expect an all modern hotel.
The hotel and room is not the most beautiful, and the furniture is somewhat worn. The biggest problem for me was a very low water pressure in the shower at my room, my colleague did not have this problem. Still, for the price and this location, we would not hesitate to go back.

posizione ottima (a 100mt da una fermata metropolitana con linea gialla/circle) e staff molto cordiale e disponibile
realizzato in uno stabile storico presenta comprensibilmente alcune lacune (per alcuni dettagli servirebbe più modernità) dovute all’età

Beautiful design
Great if the heating wasn’t just in the bathroom

the clean room n location

The location is just top! I cannot complain about it. Also the staff is very friendly and prepared to help.
The pressure of water on the fourth floor was terrible, it was impossible to take a shower because water almost didn’t come from tubes … also the room neeeds a bit of love and care and maybe new painting. It would be nice if door didn’t let the shine from the corridor into our eyes, we fixed it with the blanket. I stayed on the second floor before and it was much more comfortable. Once the cleaning service left our window open and we found it at 10 PM, it was freezing outside!

Great location and clean place. The staff was nice and friendly.
Our aircondition didn't work the first nights. A refridgerator would have been really nice to have.

Location
Possibility to buy water and soft drink at the reception.
Wifi as if it was completely absent, I couldn't even open my email.
Rooms and furniture quite old.
Hairdryer very old and unsafe. It used to get visibly incandescent, before automatically switching off after few seconds.
Only one towel provided for both face and shower.
3.8
The staff were friendly and it’s location was good for my purposes.
The wi-fi connection is atrocious. It isn’t very clean. It’s not worth the rate they ask for at all. Whoever owns it would want to wake up and start putting time and effort into the place.

The location was fantastic for our visit to the royal Albert hall, it was also close to a tube station and the staff were really friendly.
We were really happy with our stay and don’t have any negative criticism

Clean, ample tea
the room was too hot

Just what was needed at a reasonable price

Love the location. Very close to Gloucester Road tube station, which can get you almost anywhere in London, staff are helpful. The room size is big enough for 3 people considering the location. Safe & quiet neighbourhood, Tesco extra is just a block away, and the bus stop is just at the end of the street.
Love everything abt the property, the only setback is that the closest tube station doesn’t have elevator or ramps all the way from platform to entrance level (elevator only half way) so if carrying big luggage or family with toddlers will have problem climbing part of the stairs

comfy bed
poor hot water system, lack of disposable equipments, damaged shower head on top which will splash water out of the tub

There was a noisy fan in our room.

Close to the tube
We received a very ugly room on the ground floor but it felt like it was a basement room. Was glad to only sleep one night there. It was very very uncomfortable.
3.8
Location was great and near to the tube
We arrived late in the evening so it was dark. The room was fine but the bathroom was not clean, there was an old heater plugged in shoved behind a wooden bedside cabinet that looked like it should be condemned! As I was with a child this was turned off straight away. It was noisy all night and especially from 7am with bangs and things moving around. The staff when we checked out never asked if our stay was ok and just took the card key off me with no words.
3.8
Good location, very near the tube station, but still on a quiet street.
Had a room away from street, so very quiet. Didn't hear any noises from other guests either.
Comfy bed.
Very cold bathroom.
Very noisy heater.
Wish the hotel had served breakfast, simply because it is nice to go to breakfast room without having to step outdoors, but there are of course places nearby where you can sit down and have breakfast.
3.8
Very friendly staff and quiet. Cozy duvet. With coffee and tea facilites.
All together it looks old and not very clean. Bed and pillow was too hard for my taste.
3.8
Give me 2 extra Blankets for the bed
A little bit small on the rooms and bathroom
3.8

bed and pillow are not very comfy
