My partner and I booked this for one night at the last minute for £120 for the night room only. First appearance of the building and look of reception was great as were the very friendly front desk staff but the room - oh dear. Arms outstetched my fingertips touched both walls. A double bed was sqeezed in and was... More

If you think this hotel is a local charming place as you'd think it is from the online advertising, you'd be very disappointed. The rooms are very tiny, even for European Standards. The bathroom is even more so - you can shower, brush your teeth and relieve yourself all at the same time !!! It takes 5+ minutes for hot... More

I stayed here for 3 nights (end of Octobre 2011). I booked this hotel because the hotel I normally book in London was full. The room was very basic, but ok. The bathroom (the shower) was not very hygienic and very small. The staff was very rude. I don't recommend this hotel, it was very basic (which can be ok)... More

Me and my fiancée stayed four days in that hotel on the end of 2011 September. Our room was quite small and have no safe, but was clean and fresh sheets was provided daily. Furniture is quite old too. Breakfast was good and staff was very nice. The great advantage of this hotel is its location, near a good supermarket,... More

I stayed here for a week in October 2011. Being that I moved onto a comparable but utterly disappointing hotel for the weekend, I can assure you that it is better than others charging similar prices. The cons: Pay for the internet - their "free" wireless does not work. Save yourself the frustration of trying. The rooms are not very... More

I stayed one night. The room was basic but not uncomfortable. Carpet could have been cleaner and in the (small)bathroom the tile grouting was badly discoloured and the seal in need of repair. No aircon and opening windows let in the relentless roar of Cromwell Road which was busy with traffic all night. Even closing the single glazed window didn't... More

When I booked this hotel I was hoping that I would be able to prove the reviews wrong. Unfortunatly they were correct. While the location was great as it it right near the tube station that is about where the positives end. I had 2 main complaints about this hotel: The first was the shower. On the first day of...

Spent 4 nights here in July whilst working in the area. Room was adequate, decent sized clean bed. I was fortunate to have a room at the rear as my colleague who was at the front found it difficult to sleep with the traffic noise. The en suite was laughable. I have a larger bathroom in my touring caravan! There... More

Our room was so tiny we could hardly get our suitcases in. Since it had been a warm day, the room was stifling, even with the window open. The bathroom had about two square feet of standing room. We had made reservations online and didn't realize that it wasn't equal to what we'd had earlier at the Cromwell Best Western... More
