Very very dissatisfied with the £10 breakfast.
Pictures show a full English breakfast but that is certainly what you don’t get.
You get a £10 voucher from reception and eat just down the road in a pizza cafe.
You are asked if you would like tea or coffee which l presume everyone would accept.
There were 3 of us so we had 3 teas in cappuccino cups only a third full. Ok l suppose.
The food consists of a bowl with an egg fried with 95% bacon fat and a few slices of salami. Toast on the side only browned on one side in the pizza oven ( we saw him do it ) and no butter. After we ate we were offered another drink and opted for the very small teas again.
On departure we were asked to pay for the teas.
Astonishingly they amounted to £19.81
Figure that out.
After a row with the proprietor who incidentally blamed the government for the price of lame teabags and hot water we left.
I therefore suggest you don’t pay for the breakfast option. It’s a complete rip off.
Imagine if we had cappuccino.
The most Dirty, sinking Hotel I have ever stayed- do not go there

Fire Safety Concerns
Reasonably clean and adequate. A good half mile from nearest underground station.
Biggest concern was the number of fire doors wedged open endangering guests lives should a fire develop.
Quiet and clean. Receptionist is friendly. Bed was ok and bedsheets looked a bit over-washed (they were clean though).
Carpet in the room needs changing as its tired and didn't feel like putting my bare feet on them. For the price its ok, but I didn't feel comfortable walking around the room on that carpet. Close to transport and location is pretty good
Don’t pay for breakfast unless you want to walk from the hotel for 6 minutes and go to a pizza cafe. I don’t even know what they cooked because after waiting for 20 minutes I left with a takeaway coffee. £14!!!
The room I had was a single room so I wasn’t expecting much and it was on a two star hotel so I really wasn’t expecting much. The reception was basic. Took my driving licence as key security. £15 to park on the front. The room was small the mattress you could feel every spring. The tv was the size of a tablet. The shower was problematic water leaking out onto the floor and opened directly into the seeping room. Not much water pressure.
If you want to put your head down and just want somewhere cheap in London this maybe for you.
The hotel is far from the underground station but right next to a bus stop. So you have transport options. And the hot water takes a while to kick on but otherwise it was a great room great staff. The pub next door has great prices and friendly staff as well.

Liked: Cleanliness
Quite noisy from road traffic and guests trying to find their rooms as layout of rooms is confusing. Hot water took some time to come on. Bed was comfortable and room temperature good. Hotel should provide a bottle of drinking water for each person staying in addition to the tea and coffee.
