My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was fantastic, close to the tube station and within walking distance to many attractions. However, the room was tiny and poorly fitted, amplifying noise issues with thin walls. The service was pleasant overall, but some extra charges like a deposit for the TV remote were unexpected. The dining experience was basic and repetitive. Despite some drawbacks, the value for money was reasonable considering the prime location.

The hotel might have potential, but my stay fell short of expectations. The room was fairly good, but the lighting made it hard to do my makeup properly. Although comfortable, the bathroom felt cramped, and the promised WiFi was nonexistent for me. The price I paid did not match the overall experience.

The hotel is located in the city center, with easy access to public transportation options like buses and the Tube. Despite its convenient location, being in the area during a tube strike made it a bit challenging to get around.
Dining

The dining experience was not self-service, which could be awkward at times with staff forgetting items. A cooked breakfast would have been a nice option, even at an additional cost.
Facilities
The hotel had some facilities like room service and housekeeping. However, there were inconsistencies with items being provided during dining.

The hotel room was small for the price we paid, but clean and offered good value for money. However, it felt very tiny with limited natural light and ventilation, creating a somewhat claustrophobic atmosphere. The room could use a little refreshment.

My stay at the hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. The location was great, close to attractions and public transportation, but the dining options left much to be desired. The rooms were immediately available but in need of better cooling. The service was friendly and accommodating, offering good value for money.

The hotel had thick dust and dirt everywhere just like a cage. However, the bed we took was spacious and quiet. The service was very friendly with nicer staff, although some were unhelpful. The location felt like being in a time warp, but it's good 2nd zone and close to a couple of tube stations. The dining experience was shocking with grey dry hard-boiled eggs and poor-quality cheese. Overall, price and value for money could be better.

The hotel is perfectly situated near Earls Court Station, making it a convenient choice for exploring London. The rooms are quiet and cozy, providing a nice retreat. The dining options are sufficient but lack traditional English breakfast items. The location is ideal for sightseeing and has many nearby attractions. Despite some minor room inconveniences, the overall experience is positive.
