8/10 Very good

Great location

The room was exactly as described & pictured. Easy no-key system works well, especially for a late night in the city. Had to call to ask for check-in details and to find out when my deposit is coming back which is not ideal, more communication from staff would have been better. That said, I would definitely stay again!

Cheap but weired :)

Inexpensive. However its all a bit weired. Find a random house on an estate. Work out how the door lock works and find your room. Bed about 5 ft in the air. Telly, but not connected to anything. Have to share a bathroom. Which means you have to get dressed in the night to go to the loo. A dozen emails and forms you have to fill in and a deposit. Just get a hotel.

2/10 Poor

Strange and unclean

This is a small council house converted into separate rooms. Our room was sold as a triple, but was a double with a broken sofa bed which when folded out blocked all movement in the room, stopping the use of the (tiny) wardrobe and the storage unit. There were two dirty mugs, a used teaspoon and empty tea bag wrappers in our room, but no one to contact about this as it isn’t a hotel. There is a kitchen where I could get clean mugs/spoons, but there was no milk/milk sachets anywhere. The only thing going for this place is the location.

Nice stay. Clean room and shared bathroom. Easy keypad entry. Would be nice if there were a fan in the room as temperatures have been extremely high. I slept with a cool wet towel around my neck.

The stay was okay

The stay was correct. Its self check in, you will not meet someone, but you can call them until late afternoon and they will be very helpful to get you checked in. However if you arrive late at Night they Will be no assistance, that might be inconvenient. Everything is really clean, you have all equipments for the kitchen and bathroom. However in the room there is a tv impossible to unplung and which makes little noises all the time. The room is okay and satisfying for a short stay.

Dirty and damaged room

Terrible, dirty damaged room with no suite facilities. Complained and still not given a response. Do not book this accommodation
Stained bed covers
Tiny sofa for my son to sleep on, he didn’t even fit and he’s only 10
Holes in bed sheets
Damaged walls and furniture

I would not recommend this property and after over 15 years of loyalty as a customer I am no longer booking through this page. Pre check in process includes third party payment of an unclear amout - check other reviews this place is dodgy and you are not protected and have to agree to likely illegally Ts & Cs.
Michael, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Property was a total disaster, couldn't even get in for an 1hr due.to electronic lock not working . Room tiny and so so hot, window would not stay open had to prop open with tea tin. True awful experience and room would not recommend to anyone
cesar, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

This property is advertised as a hotel. In reality it is a town house where you are renting an individual room with a flimsy digital door lock. Bathroom is shared and after booking they demand a deposit along with having extensive travelers insurance to be able to access the room. Did not feel comfortable leaving valuables in the room as there is no front desk person nor a safe in the rooms. If you are looking for a quick stay in a good location this may be ideal, would not recommend for a longer stay. Also strict no refund policy, beware.
Jacob, 6-night trip

2/10 Poor

This is not a hotel. I arrived after dark and had to hunt around for anything that looks vaguely like a hotel - which it does not. I had to go down what looks like a back alley and try to put a code into a handle by the light of my phone. It was dreadful. The bathrooms are shared. The bed was soft. I never want to stay in anywhere like that again. For £160 for the night it would have been a rip-off at half the price.
Clara, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Not a quiet stay

I was left feeling a bit disappointed with the stay. The decor and cleanliness of the apartment was to a good standard, but there is absolutely no escape from the noise within in the building which meant I had 2 poor nights sleep.
David, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

what can i say. is nowhere in a room description i found explanation that this property have a shared shower/toilet. more than this you are charged £300 GBP deposit when booking on their website. no clear warning of this also found on Expedia. Information provoded by property owners is misleading. This is very bad practice. My deposit still has not been refunded.

2/10 Poor

The worst experience ever

It was probably the worst experience I have ever had - showed up to check in an hour after we should have as room wasn't ready , to then find at 5pm still not cleaned we had to stand outside the property as no where we could sit and were left out there till after 7pm at night I had my 2 children with me and had a full panic attack!! It was terrible, I thought we were stranded in London on a Saturday night!! We felt mislead as we thought it was a hotel it's a house!! With other people in it !!!! We spoke to another stressed couple thought the same as us, they left and found other accommodation. Place felt so unsafe (back door was unlocked and opened ) and uncomfortable we had no choice but to stay and no other options available I spoke to someone from hotels.com then put us back onto property manager who gave us 10% back on one night - I was in such a state I just accepted and was frightened didn't know what to do??? My son woke up the next day with a red and swollen eye my face was swollen too had to take antihistamine! Never ever ever booking again, absolute nightmare!
Deborah, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The price for london is good, location was good and nothing specific went wrong. but the room was incredibly small with no place to hang clothes. The mirror was not mounted on the wall and the tv did not function. The toilet is shared by two rooms which was not a horrible problem except the obvious inconvenience. There is a downstairs kitchen facility if needed (coffee machine did not function). While convenient for those hopong to eat in, it also means someone can cook a very aromatic meal and make the entire building smell poorly. In sum, not appropriate for except for short stays on a very low budget.
Daniel, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

Good central location and clean/modern rooms, However it is very hard to find the property as it’s actually a houseshare and the check in procedure isn’t explained when you book the room. Huge deposit taken as well (also not made clear upon booking) that I’m still trying to recover.
Kenneth, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Modern, cozy & clean

The place was clean and the host / maintenance guy who we called to let us in was v polite. I was annoyed that we had to resister my ID and card details to him via an online link felt very dodgy since I already pre-paid. The location wasn’t that easy to find, had to call the customer service to help me get there. I booked a double room for two people and was given a clean room on the top floor with a shared bathroom. The bed however had only two pillows and was set up for one person it seemed. The bed size was a 3/4 bed, between a single and a double. the room was v tight but for £70 on a bank holiday weekend in London I was happy. Would’ve appreciated more pillows. The sheets were clean, toilet was immaculate for a shared bathroom and the room had a modern design and feel.
Isabella, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

It was like home stay they asked for holding deposit 300 pounds and photo id and to sign the agreement for just one night stay which could have been mentioned in booking page.And it was very difficult to find the location as there is no display board saying the central London hub it takes us three hours to locate the exact location. We thought of staying and extend our but because of the terrible experience in cold weather we cancelled our trip . please give all details in display so that we can get an idea before booking
