1.5 star rating | In the pictures it look clean and stayable for 1 night just to sleep in, but when we arrived the doors and windows were boarded up and when we were shown are room we had BUNK-BEDS and the walls had some sort of yellow water marks we DIDNT stay! we left straight away and found another room. i know it was only £40 but i still expect a clean and decent place to stay! | 27 February 2009 | ||

4.0 star rating | Fair price, clean, though not newly refurbished. Nice staff. | Very small room for 3 people. Do not leave any of your property in the kitchen. | M-Hun | 08 September 2009 |
4.5 star rating | Great place to stay at! The location is superb, just in front of the hotel there is a bus stop, and the bus from there can take you directly to Tower Bridge | 14 October 2009 | ||
1.5 star rating | There was a sink in the bedroom which had a working tap. | The walls had damp above the wardrobe. The wardrobe itself was inaccessible as there was a bed in front of it so I couldn't hang my suit up. The television had very poor reception due to the manual aerial that was sat on the window cill and the walls were paper thin so when the person in the room next to me turned their television set on at quarter to five in the morning, it ruined my night's sleep. In addition, the pillows were the most uncomfortable I've ever used. | Lack of Sleep | 23 October 2009 |
4.0 star rating | Für kurze Aufenthalte ganz o.k. | 02 February 2011 | ||
2.5 star rating | Hotel próximo do centro com paragem de Bus mesmo em frente | A casa de banho é partilhada, não mudam os lençóis. | 30 October 2011 | |
