a pleasant and functional stay
comfy bed clean room convenient kettle friendly staff
The room had good size. the bed was comfy. i had two pillows each plus cushions. So many places supply only one pillow. everything was very clean. it was nice to have a kettle, microwave, and plates. the location was fairly quiet but near transport links. the staff were very friendly and professional.
the water temperature kept jumping all the time. i burned myself multiple times in the shower. the room was very cold even with the heating on 25 degrees celsius. the electric heater did not work well.

EXCELLENT Stay Near Earl's Court
helpful staff heated rack convenient location easy access
the staff helped put my bags in my room. i appreciated the heated towel rack A LOT. the location is VERY convenient, only a five-minute walk from Earl's Court station. supermarkets and restaurants are nearby, offering great options.
my room faced the sidewalk SO the view was not very good. THE walls also felt a bit thin, as i could hear hallway noise.

Underwhelming and Overpriced
tiny room single glazing
The location was alright, I suppose.
The room I got was seriously tiny. I struggled to find space for my suitcase. It seems ridiculous for a King Room. the window seemed to have single glazing, and I felt a slight draught, not ideal at all
