I found that noise from the traffic really loud it sound like the windows are open but they are shut, it sounds like a lot of people who was staying there had similar experiences. This hotel needs double glazing or triple glazing. I booked for two nights but with hardly any sleep We left next morning and found a quieter hotel

Great location for the tube, less than 10 minutes walk from Gloucester Road. Handy Waitrose just beside the tube, some fast food outlets and bars too. Room was tiny, only a double bed and room to shuffle around it. Fresh towels left during our 2 night stay and basic toiletries provided. Kettle in room with tea, coffee and biscuits. We didn't book breakfast so can't comment. We did leave luggage on our last morning and it was stored securely until we collected it before heading for our train.

BED BUGS & STAINED SHEETS: Unfortunately I cannot recommend this hotel as there were bed bugs in my room, specifically on the bed and curtains. After multiple conversations with the hotel staff they swapped my room, which took around an hour and I ended up getting to sleep at 02:30. I am covered in bites on my legs and will have to quarantine my belongings to ensure the bed bugs do not enter my home. There were also stains and hair on the sheets. I was not issued an apology and had to insist on a new room. For the price and the cleanliness there a better hotels available. The area around the hotel however is very convenient.

Location of the hotel was great - only about a 5 minute walk to Gloucester station which made it super handy to get around London. We booked a double room for 7 days and it was very spacious (might have got lucky with this) and clean. The only thing I would say is because it was an old building, sound from the corridor and people walking down nearby stairs could be heard. Overall a fantastic spot for a great price and would go back.

Clean and professional. Easy transportation from ST Pacras train station and even LCY airport. Close by Piccadilly line so traveling popular areas were so easy. Even walkable to Kensington palace and Hyde park areas. We were able to visit science and dinosaur museum which was our favourite at the first day by walking. 20-30 mins to other locations like London eye and Big Ben.
Room with a Great view!
