Value for the money with great location
Great location, friendly stuff and a modest room for five guests to sleep. Good value for money if you don't mind dorm-like conditions.
Authentic late 19 century London building with huge drafty windows and a retrofitted 4'x4' (1.5x1.5 m) bathroom cabin with fully functional toilet, sink and shower, which demanded quite a skill from the user.

OkayNov 20104.4
The fact that is in Central London and close to a Tube (Earls Court) is the best thing this hotel has. Staff was nice and helpful.
The rooms are very small with no complet bathroom, only a shower. If you wanted to use the toilet you had to go out of the room. The sheets were dirty.

Locality to underground station
No lift which made it difficult to get our pushchair up the stairs.

Location is good.
Room need refurbish, floor is wet, small bahtroom, toilet is not in the room. Very noisy in the morning. Breakfast is not good and not enough. I did not recommend, if budget is not yours priority.
