It is what it is - essentially a hostel, but with separate rooms. Comfy, clean enough and warm. Friendly & helpful reception staff.

Does what it says on the tin! Needed a place to stay for a night after a festival. Can’t argue with the price, nice and cheap especially for London. The staff member on the desk was very friendly and helpful.

Wonderful staff, the room was very warm and comfortable! Shared bathroom and kitchen were clean too! It felt like more like a large house than a hotel, which might be great for some.
The staff had every possible amenity I required and I'm grateful for the extended stay despite my late check in.
Just be aware that as it's close to the high street (not necessarily a bad thing), you might get the odd busy traffic noise near you.
Good, decent place to sleep for the night for a decent price.

Nice and friendly staff.
Our family room was all new beds so I could sleep well.
I just feel bad for another customer.
My children were so happy stay here so running around and making noise.
It’s good . Booked for a room with private toilet but had a little problem but was changed for a room with shared bathroom, staffs there were very friendly and helpful. Can’t complain much. Room was very neat and clean.

Was nice enough, not overly fancy. Communal bathrooms for rooms which was a little awkward but fine. Rooms were clean but bathroom could be cleaner. Minimal contact with staff but we’re friendly enough when engaged.
The room was too small, not as big as what was seen on the website. The bed couldn't conveniently contain two people.
However, Mr Peter, the receptionist that received us, gave us excellent customer service. He made us feel at home. Kudos to him.
My stay at the hotel was a pleasant one for what to expect for the cost. The
shower could do with better cleaning...
Overall friendly and accommodating staff. Easy access to transport and local shops.
U need to explain to person that they are sharing a bathroom with strangers the place was very smelly overall i can't imagine taking kids there i will never refuse or let anyone i know go there is not

The room I had booked was with a bathroom but the room I was given only had a sink and a shower with a shared bathroom down the hall. They ‘upgraded’ me to a room with more beds but still only had a shower and sink. Shower was really old and over all the room was grungy.

Staff helpful.
The front desk staff were extremely helpful and very knowledgeable with regard to apps.
Rooms were very small and tired. Expected a bit more for the price.
