I booked 2 x deluxe rooms. In my wildest dreams i could not imagine how they could describe our rooms as deluxe. The one I actually stayed in was more of a small box room. There was 2 bath towels provided for 2 of us but no hand towels. . The TV did not work in either room and we pointed this out to receptionist who said he would sort it out (he didn't). There was 1 teabag, 2 coffee bags and no spoons and this was just put on bedside shelf loose (no presentation). Black mould along the lower part of wall where radiater was.window only opened about 2-3 inches and no fan or aircon so quite hot in the room. Think the bed needed replacing as it creaked and groaned every time you moved so no definately not a deluxe room. Would I stay there again, probably not.

Room simply wasn’t clean. The bedding was fine, but debris and loads of dust under and around the beds. Shower very moldy. Front desk was very friendly, good location, but £80 still felt like too much. Very very small rooms. No tv remote so no TV.

Not as bad as previous reviews had. It’s a budget hotel. The room was tiny. The corridors and doors were tiny. You get nothing if you don’t ask for it, ie clean towels and tea and sugar. But otherwise it’s cheap and close to town.

Don’t book it unless you have to, you can’t use the toilet without hitting the sink or you have to let the door open , also the shower is tight you can’t even clean your body properly. The bed wasn’t clean as well as the pillow have stains and hair. The location was good , it’s close to paddington station

The deluxe double room was no bigger than a large wardrobe! If I had swung a cat I would have smashed its head in !! The shower was tiny , I’m a large framed man and just squeezed into it , once in I couldn’t move , the shower head was fixed and aimed at the ceiling, I had to remove it from it’s cradle to get myself wet , the tv was no bigger than a mobile phone , it definitely needs to be decorated , the paint was aged and grubby , I feel the description on your website is very misleading , on the plus side , it was warm and clean

I was given a ground floor room with no windows. The room looked like an old store room, painted in a dark colour and desperately needed repainting throughout. The furniture was sparse and dated. The bathroom sink was so small you couldnt get the kettle under the tap to fill it. It was so cold however there was a wall heater. Although advertised with hairdryer, there was not one in the room however one was obtained from another room. the lift did not work for those staying on upper floors, they had to carry bags up a staircase. Very disappointed.
