This is an unmitigated dump. The floors and walls were filthy. The bathroom stank of urine. The window didn't close. The room was unbearably hot at night and the shower only had cold water in the morning.
Avoid this place unless you are accostomed to living in a sewer.

The most terrible hotel. We were moved fro The Ascott. And had to stay in a room in the basement, without heat and a door out to the garden that could not be locked. The worst hotel I have ever seen!
Only one advice stay away from it.

I early June 2006 me and my pal went to England and the great Download Festival. We decided to take the last day of our trip in London and booked a room at Exhibition Court Hotel 3. We got a cheap room at the rate of £40 for one night. When we arrived at the hotel there seemed to something wrong with the booking, but they took a copy of my confirmation and it was all ok (they even let a couple of our friends stay in another room at the same cheap price, without booking in advance).

I must say I didn't know what to expect after reading some of the reviews here at tripadvisor. But we took our chances, mostly because it was so cheap.

We got a room on the 4th. floor and there was no elevator. The room was much better than expected. Clean sheets and generally cleaned everywhere. Yes, you could say the carpets were worn, but that was ok at the rate we payed for the room.

The room had ensuite facilities which weren't that bad. The shower was ok, but I couldn't figure out how it worked. Somehow I got water, but it changed from hot to cold water now and then. The toilet was placed below the sink, but it was completely possible to sit on it.

The rooms got pretty hot during the night, since there was no airconditioning, but again what should you expect at the rate. There was a small 12" fan in the room and it help getting some circulation in the air.

The personell was friendly.

All in all this hotel was ok to stay at for two guys for one night after a festival. But I don't think I will bring my wife to this hotel.

Ps. there is a 24hr. Tesco right down the street. They have all kinds of food and beers. And it always nice to have something to fill the fridge in the kitchenette in the room.

Absolutly horrible. No lights in the room (only one lamp for the full, room), no blankets (even if you ask for. They only smile, say yes, and do nothing), unbearable stink, awful atention, dirty spots in walls and ceiling, the breakfast is repugnant, the windows do not close properly, the central heating was only a legend and the stove only runs (diying) during 30 minutes... There is nothing good to tell about this dirty hole, but we are far now. My advice: RUN AWAY FROM THIS FILTHY SEWER AS FAST AS YOU CAN.

Ah. They are very clever people.We've booked the room online in the Exhibition Court 3 (presumibly better than this puddle [--]) but when we arrive it was closed and we was sent to the EC1. But they apply us the rates of the EC 3. Ole, ole, ole!!!
