Paige

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The hotel rooms are very old and dated. Arrived to a dirty and musty/moldy smelling room. Blood or wine splatters on the wall, dust hanging out of vents, mold in the bathroom, walls badly needed painting, and floors scraped up/worn. Alex the manager, who was kind, tried to be helpful and after much protest, moved us to another room which was slightly better but still smelled moldy. Despite turning off all heat, we had to sleep with the windows open, in late November. We were not expecting luxury accommodations, but do expect a clean room. The one positive was that is was very convenient to the metro which was helpful as we trued to stay out if the room as much as possible.

I get putting people in room 5 but then the receptionist needs to ensure that the noise from the reception and corridor is moderated. A lot of chat and a beeping noise, maybe a phone, pretty much all night. This coupled with the door opening and closing and the chat from visitors who fail to realise they are walking directly past people’s bedrooms - I get the latter is the guests and not the hotel but the receptionist could remind people. A really poor nights sleep

Excellent location for short stay: quick arrival from Heathrow & short walk from Earl’s Court station and its thoroughly gentrified neighborhood. Staff is helpful and responsive. The room we were moved to (on request) was well equipped with new washer, dishwasher, fridge. Unfortunately this is not the establishment we remembered on 2 previous stays. Upkeep is uneven: the first room we were given was horrendous. Dirty, torn curtains, crud on all the plumbing. This should NOT have been rented out. The staff was accommodating in moving us to another family studio when it became available. Still showing age but was fine. Still, fluorescent ‘soap’ and ‘shampoo’ (dish soap?!) is not acceptable at a place of such web self-presentation.
