Lovely accomodation that. Lovely.
1-night trip

10/10

Great location and good standard of basic accommodation. Only issue was the fact windows didn’t open very wide at all, and no fans etc available, so very warm and stuffy in the height of summer.

I didn't expect I will find an accommodation in that price in London until I found Great Dover apartments. Very pleased with the location, as it was in a short distance to Undergrand.

It was good. Secure environment.

One night stay, comfortable but litter (including cig butt) left in bin and small pieces of litter left on table and in bathroom. Still worthwhile for single night, good location.

Very good location close to tube stations and city center. Room was basic and comfortable. It is student accommodation. The bathroom was a bit of a joke though. Shower just perched in one corner right beside toilet. But considering it's London the price was very reasonable.

No A\C but excellent otherwise. One day I asked for fresh towels and they delivered, but also took the dirty ones off the floor and hung them back up!!!! But no matter. I would stay here again. Clean and very nice place, and within walking distance from the heart of the city.

The kitchen is disgusting and is full of mould. Also mould found in the showers

I was kept awake until 1.30 am by a loud female guest in a nearby room. She only stopped when I knocked on my door in desperation,

I hadn't realised that I was booking student accommodation out of term time. That's fine, often a good deal, as this would have been, were it not for the two hundred foreign students (I assume) who were partying outside until gone midnight. No TV or kettle. Apart from that it was very good.

I have stayed at a lot of budget accommodations in London. This is one i won’t forget. I was worried about noise being a KCL student accommodation. I was not prepared for filth and neglect. First, there was a disgusting baby bottle full of disgusting dark fluid on the desk. Random! Then no toilet paper. No shower curtain either, but somehow toilet paper I thought was below the belt (literally). Light in the bathroom didn’t work. Otherwise I might have seen no toilet paper. The Mattress springs were all broken. The duvet like the carpet was filthy. No glass for water - nothing! Squalor. So no, I do not recommend this place

C’est comme une auberge de jeunesse (prix) mais avec une chambre seule équipée d’une salle de bain personnel. Une cuisine avec équipements (frigo, poêle, micro-onde, toaster) en commun mais sincèrement je n’ai pas vu personne dans la cuisine
