The receptionist was lovely, we booked two rooms both had brand new bathrooms and the rooms were modern and clean. The hotel location is easily walkable to the US embassy and Battersea is not much further which is a lovely area. Great value for money, very convenient, we would definitely stay here again

Easy check in, recently renovated/decorated room which was totally spotless, shower products and tea/coffee facilities included.
Only downside is no AC so room was quite warm.
The room was very small and felt very cramped and not worth what we paid

The location was convenient and the staff very friendly and helpful.
The only negative was that the room was a bit hot and on the ground floor so we hesitated to open the window.

Overall decent value for the cost, although be warned that rooms without AC and with just a very small fan the rooms (especially mine on the top floor) get extremely hot in summer. Also the fire alarm went off at 3am one day in my room and the front desk were not very apologetic.

The room hasn't any AC (Its lack of air). The shower is cheap and poor ( low flow), difficult to move shower to direct on your head and body. To open the windows-its another challenge, you have to use stick. And there is no lift in the hotel-shame!!! Overall - its not worth the money paid!!! I won't recommend this hotel to my friends!

Very convenient in terms of transportation, bus stops right in front. However, the WiFi didn’t work in my room. I wished I would have been able to check in early as I was really tired from my early flight but it is what it is. Beware that you’ll have a bathroom but no actual toilet if you have a basic standard room. The toilet is shared which I didn’t like.
You can leave your luggage the day of your check in and the day of your check out which is helpful and there’s a McDonalds right outside.

Fantastic beds. Very comfortable. Small but clean. Zero airflow, even with the window open (faced an alley) so the room was uncomfortably hot even with cooler weather outside. Renovations being done, but did start a little later so wasn't a big deal.
Needed to be in the area and would recommend.

Great location - we were heading to a gig at Brixton Academy. Train station 2 min walk.
Handy to have a McDonald’s on your doorstep for a quick bite to eat at any time. Spotlessly clean room and bathroom. Very comfortable. Not the biggest twin room but fine for our needs. Nice to have a kettle etc. for a cuppa in the morning.
Noise from the road could impact some especially if you want the window open but it’s on a main road in London so it should expected at all hours!
Would not hesitate to stay again if we’re heading to O2 academy.

Had a lovely stay! The place was very clean and easily accessible by taxi. A bonus is that there’s a McDonald’s right next door—perfect for a quick bite if you’re in a rush. Do note that in the evenings, it can get a bit lively with people singing or playing music loudly. It didn’t bother me, but if you’re sensitive to noise, it’s something to keep in mind. Overall, a great stay!
