Great place to stay in a great part of London, easy to get into the city centre and walkable to Shepherd's Bush Market tube station.
The room was good, not too much noise from the road outside and parking is secure and well priced.
Easy check in and staff were great, will use again for sure.
Conveniently next to some bus stops and a busy street. Small reception, budget friendly but small rooms. My double didnt look like the pictures and the bed was missing slats. The mattress was cheap and uncomfortable and the tv located in a far corner so difficult to watch - couple.of weird office style chairs also. Heating unable to be turned off and wallpaper / paint needing some maintenance. BUT for the price paid, it was ok for a night. Next door to a decent pub which does food etc. Would return if on my own and in West London.
This is a decent, affordable place to stay. It's not plush by any standards but it has everything you need, our room was clean and comfortable and the staff were helpful and friendly. There is no bar or restaurant but they have an arrangement with a local restaurant, where you can get breakfast, and there is room service provided by one of the hotel's partners. It's on the corner of Uxbridge Road and Askew Road, close to several pubs and restaurants and walking distance to Hammersmith. Will likely return.
Was good stay. Little confusion at the beginning about our breakfast so we didn't get a breakfast on first day but got voucher to use for a dinner or lunch instead

It was fine, a warm welcome and a clean room. For an urban setting it was quite quiet which is important to me. And no fuss.
Cheap for a reason. Should have done more research. Smelt of wee shower was a trickle. Beds very springy. Very dated and tired. Ropey location. Not for us.
I guess if you pay cheap prices you get a cheap accommodation. This is worse than a budget hostel. Manky carpet, poor sleeping conditions and windows that dont close, simply appalling
1 star at best
Member of staff at check-in was friendly and very helpful. Info provided in advance by hotel was helpful. Bus stop right outside the hotel and excellent Chinese takeaway nearby (the only place still serving food because we arrived late in the evening).
We had family room (double & two single beds) very comfortable, clean. Slightly cramped but fine for just a one night stay. Bonus was a fridge in the room.

Reasonable for a budget hotel.Good location for tube station which is a ten minute walk away.
Room decent size. Tea and coffee provided, although I wasn't very impressed with the pre-chewed gum that was left by our cups from a previous guest. Electrics a bit dodgy as two of the main plug sockets didn't work.
