This was the most economical place available in South Kensington, nearly half the average price in the area.
Rule number 1 is to take this point into account for the review and rating.
My room was nice and big, had a window, two single beds made into a double, closet, locker, an iron and ironing board, fridge, desk and chair, bin, two side drawers, a coffee table and an armchair. Even had a double electric hob, which I didn’t try, so not sure if it was working.
Now, the cleanliness wasn’t top notch, but for the price, I’d say it was pretty adequate. Especially, the toilet, wash basin, and shower room were very clean and I didn’t bother about the difficult to clean dusty areas, and was happy to get the exact value for money which I expected at the price I paid.
It’s not soundproof, and you can hear the traffic in your room. The bed was a bit uncomfy, and the hotel can invest in some proper bedding such as duvets and bedsheets/covers. None bothered much when I returned just for my nap after a long work day followed by some beer.
Hotel has WiFi, and I had no trouble with heating or hot water. Complementary toiletries were also provided and towels replaced everyday.
Note that there are no lifts, so be very careful when taking luggage up and down the stairs. There is no porter, but try asking for help.
Back to rule number 1: this place lived to my expectations; I have recommended to friends and family and would give them my business again (if they retain price and quality)
