Worse room ever
The room I was given looked nothing like the rooms in the photos. It was a dingy horrible very small outdated room in the basement that wasn't clean and the duvet cover was dirty and had hair all over it.

Poor
The room was dirty, no light shade, mattress was old and lumpy, pillows were the same. Very dated, carpet was dirty and i didnt want to walk on it. Had it been for more than one night we would definitely have checked in somehwere else.

Overall - clean & warm
The staff were pleasant and helpful, the room and bathroom were clean however, the carpet had not been vacuumed in a long time and I did not wish to tread bare foot around the room. Also, the beds were not very comfy and both us felt the springs in the mattress.

Wouldnt recommended
The room was dirty bed had hair and stains in it , the shower was poor and nearly flooded the bathroom. Didnt off any soaps pr anything and the noise from outside made it unbearable to sleep. The no lift access especially with heavy luggage was not ideal

Not so good
Budget hotel in need of upgrade and refit. Large bedroom with wooden floor. Partially partitioned to allow for storage by operators. Flimsy doors key operated self locking, so rember your key when traveling to the bathroom. No services in the room. TV and kettle, the little basket offering tea, coffee or milk was empty. WiFi is extra.... The bathroom is at the very bottom of the hotel. Seperate shower room to toilet. Hostal may have offered more quality

We got what we paid for but seriously this place needs a lot of renovating. Seemed a safe area and close to the train station.

Thanet Guest house
In the app or online (even in the welcome book! In the room) It said breakfast included. However this wasnt correct. Also the TV remote on off button needs attention. And toilet seat needs securing. All in all though its a lovely place with friendly people and a nice atmosphere so I enjoyed my visit.

2/10 Poor

The balcony door didn’t lock, it took two people to push it with full force in order to close it. The bedding also wasn’t changed. There were hairs, false lashes, makeup and chocolate all over the sheets, duvet and pillows. We then went down to reception and were made to change the bedding ourselves.

We just needed a room to sleep in after theatre trip so this did the job. The rooms are dated but were clean and spacious. One night here was fine. Wouldn’t stay longer than that. Good location by Holborn station. Walkable to Covent Garden’s. So suited us. Cheap and easy.

Decent rooms with the affordable price in Central London and the staff were good. I didn't have the bed bug problem as someone said in the review comments. Had good sleep and it is close to British Museum.

8/10 Very Good

A unique experience living in an old building turned hotel. The staircase to our room was narrow and winding. The wooden floor made creaking sound and some parts of the carpet were torn with nails protruding. Despite the creaking floor, the beds and linen were clean and comfortable. Suitable for short stay and backpackers.
