2/10 Poor

Poorly cleaned hotel
I travel quite a lot and this is the first time I had such a bad experience on a hotel. The bed sheets were the only clean thing in the room. The carpets hasn't been vacuum, were full of dust,hair, rest of food, stickers from, at least the last person. Table also dirty spots as well as walls and chair. It is a massive hotel and you have to queue for everything, and when I payed, they refused to provide the invoice till my chech out, for which I had to queue again. Breakfast is the same. I won't come back.

Great Location, Awesome Breakfast Buffet.
Great Location. Awesome Breakfast. NO A/C in the hotel and it was pretty hot in the room. Also, no room safe, which would have been appreciated. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

8/10 Very good

Reasonable
Basic room was quite acceptable. Remote on TV did not work though. Be warned Prices in London Pub are high AND a service charge is added without any warning. Pint of Guinness was 7.95!!

4/10 Fair

Poor Noise Insulation
Unfortunately, the hotel room has a single pane window and being located on the main road in central London, every bit of traffic was heard loudly all night long. I wouldn’t recommend this hotel for a good night’s rest.
