Great staff, very friendly welcome and smooth check in.
Amazing location for the tube, 2m walk if that.
Rooms are a bit dated and it was possibly the smallest shower I’ve ever been in but for the price I felt it was fine and absolutely nothing worth complaining about. Comfy bed and athe room had all the other little things you need. Would stay again if I needed a quick room in London for a night.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
A bit shabby, old noisy. Construction in rooms overhead at 7:30 am
The beds weren’t the most comfortable, but for the price and location where good and staff were friendly.

Quiet hotel in busy area
The hotel is nice and clean even though a little dated. Most of the furniture was well worn and the bathroom can do with a face lift.
Apart from that, it is nice and local to the busy Earl’s Court area and on a minutes walk to the tube.
Staff were nice and friendly and always available if needed.
Will definitely stay here again.

I love the old world charm of this hotel and its quirky & narrow stairwell leading into our basement unit. I wish they didn’t leave unopened boxes of construction materials or maybe they were furniture in the hallway. The hallway is already very narrow, which is understandable since this is an old building, but having stuff left in the hallway made it even tighter. But we didn’t complain coz perhaps they didn’t have any other place to put them?
The 2-bed/ 4-person occupancy basement room was very nice, bright and big. There was no moldy smell with the nice wood floor and updated decent sized bathroom/toilet. Be aware that there is no fridge or microwave in this quad room. However there is a decent sized kettle with coffee supplies.
The street where it is located is quite loud especially at night when everyone is trying to sleep. And again, it’s not the hotel’s fault that this street is where all the “Uber-eats” type motorcycle riders hang-out in between deliveries. And some of them are not quiet at night, sometimes you hear yelling like they’re about to break into a fight. And you could smell when somebody is smoking weed outside. I don’t know if it’s any better in the higher floors, but in the basement we heard and smelled everything! So if you’re a light sleeper and by yourself, do not take a basement room. It helped that as a family of four with my husband being there, I still felt safe. But I probably wouldn’t feel safe if I came by myself or just me and the kids.
The room was inadequately soundproofed from the one next door. A couple could be heard talking literally all night long from the behind the partition.
I tried to use the online check-in but, despite registering myself as British, I was asked to upload photos of identity documents. I therefore abandoned the online check-in.
When I arrived at the hotel at around 11pm, with my young child following a concert, the person who checked us in was utterly charmless and very brusque. I don’t think he smiled once. Even taking into account the language / cultural barrier, and the fact I may have been dealing with a night porter, it was - very brusque and rude check-in. He was insistent that I provided identity documents. When I asked whether this really applied to British nationals he grunted very firmly in the affirmative.
This is an affordable stay. The property needs some repair. It is clean. However the shower is very small and lighting in the bathroom was poor. If you don’t spend a lot of time in the room it is nice for the price.
When my partner and I arrived, our sheets looked like they had been slept in already. There were hairs and stains on the sheets that were obviously new. Staff was understanding and provided (only half of) of a set new sheets, but this shouldn't have happened in the first place. The showers in the small double rooms are also very very small, my partner had to lean out of the door to even attempt to shower. Do not go for this room if you are not a very petite person.The rooms are dated like other reviews have mentioned, but normally I would consider that charming. The tv was hung crooked and did not work well.
Convent location. Staff is improper and rude. Cold rooms. Small showers. Mold in showers. Window was left open upon arrival in winter season. Old water left in tea pot. Good for a quick vacation.
