They try to keep the hotel clean but understand that it's a very old building. Very minimalistic plan for everything. Jail cells may have more space than these hotel rooms. There is not enough space for your luggages. Two person can not move inside the room at the same time in a 3 persons room. Probably alright if you just want a bed to sleep for a high price.

Claire

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Hotel was in a good location and was clean but very dated. 2 nights stay as we were going to concert at Wembley. The bed was like a rock. It was located next to the front door which was constantly banging. When people walked down the corridor to the front door, the bed creaked as the floorboards moved. The curtains were falling off at one side. As the room we had was right at the front on road level, you heard everyone walking by. There were roadworks outside that were very noisy (but obviously that’s not the hotels fault). There was no tea & coffee making facilities, you had to go out and walk a few doors down to go back into main hotel to get a tea or coffee. We did ask to be moved, but the hotel was full. We were given 2 duvets to put underneath the bottom sheet. These were thin summer duvets. One of them had 2 stains on!. It made it slightly better for the second night, but would never stay there again.

Disliked: Amenities
The area was shockingly noisy. Not only were there people about at all hours, there was also construction on the road outside at 6 am and jack hammering that started at 8:45 PM. The stairs were very steep and narrow and there was no elevator; however staff couldn't really help much with luggage as they could not leave the front desk. It felt very dangerous to be taking suitcases up and down the stairs. Further, the shower took almost 10 min of running water to warm up. This wasted an extreme amount of water, much to my dismay. The beds were quite squeaky, the windows were single pane, and with no ability to control room temperature, we slept in our sweaters on top of our pj's.

One problem I have with this property is that it was not accessible. My daughter have to walk with a walk-in stick, and it was inconvenient for her. Also, the fact that we have no washroom in our room it was not very accessible for her and for me, but overall experience was good, the property is located in a excellent location.
