The room was perfect for our needs there were some kitchen appliances and also a lift in the building. The host was great at communicating and the building is in a great location there was a bus stop right outside and earls court underground station only a few minutes walk away. We would stay again if we are in the area again :)

The microwave could not be used because it was burnt soot black inside. I was unable to use the kitchenette. We had to resort to dining out for all our meals which added to our expenses.

Good room, ample size. Quite noisy though as hotel is positioned on a main road and the blinds are not black out blinds so woke very early. Bed was comfortable and the bathroom completely new. Would stay again.

Great location

Brilliant location only five mins from Earls Court Station and facilities were good too. Great communication in advance of arrival as no staff present. Only slight downside is that the road is incredibly busy even at night and so suffers a little with traffic noise.

This property is very close to public transport and shops. The rooms are small but well thought out. Reminded us of living on a boat or in a tiny house. Check-in is done over the phone which was new to us but went smoothly.

Handy place to base yourself in London

Extremely handy to transport options in Earls Court, the rooms are well appointed with lots of storage options. There is a virtual front desk, but any requests are responded to in a timely manner.
