I wouldn’t return

Key was not left in key box for late arrival but I was able to call the owner who came over 15 mins later with a key. Hallway smelled of cigarette smoke, walls marked with many scuff marks from suitcases, staircase bannister old and chipped paint. Bedroom window didn’t open so nowhere for bathroom steam to escape. Overall I didn’t feel unsafe, but didn’t feel comfortable.

Noisy and Filthy

Very old hotel. Everything is old and stained. The stairs going up to the room are filthy. Inside the room, the furniture is as old and outdated. You can hear everything from the outside bar and street. Hotel is also next to a highway.

I needed an earlier check in as my concert tickets came through late which clashed with check in, but after explaining this i got access to my room early and it saved me missing out. Staff friendly and helpful. Outside was a noisy road but not terrible. Great shower, much needed after a sweaty gig and walk back.

Excellent central location

Excellent central location. The rooms are small, but well equipped and comfortable. You should visit the Indian Cafe Racer downstairs whether you stay in the hotel or not!

Nice staff…poor hotel/condition

Very basic hotel, not in great condition, rooms tiny and Buidling very tired looking, capets and public areas not well kept. No mattress protector on bed, just a sheet over the mattress, cracked mirror, tiles in bathroom, no where to hang clothes and old fashioned sash windows filthy dirty and hard to open. Positives: nice staff; friendly welcome and location good. £100 for a night was a lot for this room.

Budget and basic, but very good

Nowhere to hang any clothes! No wardrobe, rail or even a hook for a wet coat. Nothing. Very comfortable bed though. Not really a complaint, but don't expect too much from the 'free' breakfast. Great location for theatres, O2 and china town. Would definitely stay again.
