Excellent location for a short trip

A very nice hotel in an excellent location very near Gloucester Road tube station.Easy connections to all major points. Also frequent bus services. The hotel is charming and friendly and includes an excellent continental breakfast. The rooms are very clean and well equipped. I can strongly recommend this hotel.

Perushotelli hyvällä sijainnilla. Ilmastointi ja suihku toimivat. Saatiin hyvin nukuttua. Aamupala maksoi 10 puntaa, ja siihen kuului esim. leipää, mysliä, jogurttia, hedelmiä ja leivoksia.

Die Lage war das einzig positive. Der Empfang ist sehr bescheiden gehalten. Wasser gibt es nur still und dann nur beim Empfang gegen Bezahlung. Im Zimmer hat es keine Minibar. Für ein Zimmer mit 3 Betten ist die Nasszelle einfach extrem klein. Eine zweite Person geht einfach nicht in dieser Nasszelle. Der Spiegel im WC war in den Rahmen hineingeklebt, zwischen dem Spiegel und dem Rahmen kann man eine Klebemasse erkennen. Der Boden im Zimmer ist nicht eben und der Teppich müsste dringend gereinigt werden. Hatte am zweitletzten Tag herumfliegende Motten, super!! Ich empfehle niemandem dieses Hotel. Es müsste dringend renoviert werden.

Muuten ok, mutta suihkun vedenpaine oli todella vaatimaton, lähinnä lorinaa...

Metroasema lähellä, hinta-laatusuhde kohdallaan. Huoneen ilmastointi ei jäähdyttänyt huonetta säätöyrityksistä huolimatta, viilennys ei toiminut.
