Never Again! Not very well signed posted like other hotels on the same road, only plaques on the building, that I actually walked past the hotel. Was greated by a man after being let in with a couple who were having problems with the entry code. There's no check in desk, just a table with a laptop. As i checked myself in with the gentleman, it then take the man about 10mins to find the key to my room, as apparently my room is the only room which has a key. Which is a lie. Once found I was taken to my room by the man, which he took me outside of the reception door, down 50yards to another door, through a corridor, out a backdoor to this courtyard and these outhouse buildings were there are 2 of them. The guy opened the door showed me how to lock the door, then left me to my own devices. On inspection was the size of the this so called room. My first impression was what awful wallpaper, then the smell hit me that smelt like mould. Mould soon to be seen on the wallpaper by the door, then on further inspection behind the kettle table was more mould. I had no time to goto reception to ask for another room as the hotel was sold out. Lucky I had a mask with me, as I hate to think what I was inhaling. Bathroom was a ok, small but adequate if your lucky not to be over 6ft. No hand towel proved just a floor mat and bath towel. Bed was comfortable but I didn't sleep well at all. The cup provided for tea or coffee wouldn't even wash down a good breakfast (which is not provided by the hotel). For the price and yes I know it's london on a Saturday night, I have stayed in better conditions for half the price in a capital city. On leaving I made sure I had all my belongings, took the key back to reception were I was greated by a gentleman who only opened the door, told him I was checking out and handed the key back to him. No questions asked if my stay was ok etc. As I was walking away towards the train station, I can safely say I will not be returning and will be looking for a refund for my stay due to the conditions of having to stay in a room that had that much mould of the walls.
