Booked a single for 5 nights on venere, at Exhibition Court 1 (which is across the road from this hotel) and upon arrival was assigned a room in Exhibition Court 3 instead. The room was the most horrific hotel room I have ever stayed in, absolutely filthy, shared facilities (I had booked ensuite) in a dark dungeon-like basement. Couldn't believe that they would even try to ask anyone to stay in this room. I arrived late in the evening, and had to go back across the road to the other hotel (that's where receptionist was) and then to an Internet cafe to print out the description from Venere to show that what they were giving me was not what I booked. No joy, the manager would have to deal with it, and he wouldn't be there until next day. Eventually I got a room in Exhibition Court 1 which is the subject of a seperate review.

I spent 20 minutes checking in coz my reservation was lost, then had to climb four flights of stairs with 8days worth or luggage, including lots of work material.
The dust was so thick on the shelves somebody had wrote clean me in it and the toilet still bore the stains of the last guest - not nice!
Breakfast on morning one was toast because there was nobody about to cook or get me a knife to pread jam or cup for coffee!
Second and third day i had a cooked breakfast...one hard egg, one small sausage, one rasher of bacon and the tiniest portion of beans ever and it didnt even tast good.
On the fourth morning I learned that, despite having paid for breakfast, it cost an extra £5 for their "full english" which is a joke!
Just had toast again, this time with coffee and jam.
Skipped breakfast on the fifth day and I am now wiriting this, still on my fifth day. I will not be paying for my two breakfasts when I check out, not least because I was not informed of the charge.
On the good side, the rooms were cleaned daily (although the toilet was not touched until day 3) and clean towels provided every three days.
Kitchen facilities are good, very useful, especially the fridge for milk and cold drinks and the kettle.
The location was good, on the same road as the nearest tube and only a short walk for supermarket/newsagents/restaurants(i recommend 'as greek as it gets') and a few bars
Overall, this was not good value for money at all. If anybody is on that much of a budget I recommend www. studenz. com
Their hotels are not luxurious but also not as bad as this hotel and they are cheaper with better locations as well (but be warned that eaton house has the same problem of four flights of stairs and no lif so if you have a lot of luggage avoid this like the plague!)

Myself and my mother took my son to 'see the sights' for his birthday and were very surprised that we could get a room for three, for 3 nights so cheaply! However on arrival we understod why...four flights of stairs, dusty rooms and over all pretty run down. Breakfast was poor...infact we cooked our own on the one morning. But it wasn't all gloom and doom, the place was warm, the beds clean, the mini kitchen in the room was very handy and it was cheap...lets face it, we went to see London. Don't expect luxery, this is a place for those who dont intend to spend much time in their room...a cheap base from which to explore!

We stayed at this 'hotel' for four nights. My first impression was that it was dirty, shabby and in need of a good clean and re-decoration. The room was tiny, not a room at all more a a section of corridor, with just room for a bed. The furniture, such as it was, appeared to be sourced from skips. The shower wasn't working properly, you risked being scalded as the temperature gauge wasn't working properly. I didn't dare look at the mattress as I am sure, judging from the rest of the room, that it was filthy. There was no iron, although one was provided when I requested it. When we went down to the dining room on the first day we were told that we couldn't get any breakfast as we were too late even though it was before the time we had been told at the desk. On a subsequent day we were told that we shouldn't get breakfast at all as we were self catering. The rooms were paper thin and we could hear it every time a tap was turned on, etc. I would have left straightaway but for the fact that they had my credit card details and would have charged us anyway plus the fact that we didn't want to waste the few days we had on looking for accommodation.
I would advise anyone booking a hotel to avoid this place like the plague. I am surprised that it passes the regulations needed for providing accommodation (if there are any!). We felt totally taken in and unable to do anything about it.
