I like its location and its price. I asked for a room with 4 beds and got a room with 6 beds. Liked the rooms location in the building.

アールズコートの安宿

2時からのチェックイン、2時前までに荷物を預けるには3ポンド必要ということで、初めての経験。この地域の安宿としては清潔、よく言えば時間厳守で安心ではある。宿泊代も安く、駅からもそんなに遠くなく、立地的にはかなりいい方である。部屋はちょっとせまいかな、荷物を置くには工夫が必要。シャワー設備やトイレはそんなに多くはない。広めの食堂があるのでリラックスでき、熱い湯が提供されレンジもあるが、食堂の厨房が閉まっていたのでどう使われるのか不明。

You get what you pay for when you stay in this property. It is a hostel so there is no maid service or towels but you have cheep, convenient and clean accommodation. The best tip I can give is to take ear plugs as it can be noisy at night with people coming and going.

YUK HING, 5-night trip

2/10 Poor

This place is terrible in all sense of the word. The staff is rude especially the guy who does the night shift. They made a mistake with my booking and didn’t offer an apology and instead of helping me find another place to stay the two individuals who do the night shift sat there like two idiots. The guy told me to find another place and didn’t even care that I had payed money already. That guy is so rude he doesn’t deserve to be working with people. If he doesn’t know how to work with people he needs to find another job.
Fernando, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

I liked that it was clean and that there was free breakfast. I wish there was an elevator. Staff were friendly, some more so than others. I had an overall positive experience. Some staff even helped me lift my luggage up the stairs, which was super helpful.

Ok stay but can improve lots

It was a bit confusing because I was expecting it to be a hotel as advertised when it was actually a hostel. Breakfast is very poor and of low quality food. Shower area should be cleaner.

Anmeldelse

Da vi ankom havde hostlet ikke vores bestilte værelse ledigt, og vi blev derfor sendt på 8-mands sovesal første nat. Derefter fik vi et andet værelse, men måtte betale 100 pund ekstra. Hotellets morgenmad består af toast, der kan ristes og dertil gouda-ost og marmelade. Det er det. Værelserne er ok, men der er kakerlakker samt mus og opsatte musefælder. Beliggenheden er super.

Der Preis, die Lage und Umgebung waren gut, jedoch sind die Betten unbequem und quietschen bei jeder Bewegung. Die Toiletten und Duschen sind sehr klein und umständlich.

I couldn’t even stay at this hotel because it wasn’t what was advertised. The room smelled like death, was dirty, no bathroom like promised. Staff was rude and unwilling to offer a different room.
