Where to start.. on approaching the hotel we walked past a homeless guy who had set up camp 100 yds from the hotel. Just across from the hotel , a rat ran from a doorway and into the gutter and the whole area smelled like a public toilet ( the smell of urine was really strong in areas)..
The hotel itself seemed ok on arrival, concierge was pleasant and helpful.
The room was functional but had no coffee making facilities in it. The duvet was sweat stained, the sheet had sticky tape marks across it & the bed was so uncomfortable I averaged four hours sleep each night , to the point where I was just glad to go home for a decent nights sleep. In the bathroom, the facia around the sink was also peeling away. On the plus side , the hotel was situated near a variety of restaurants/pubs and a short walk from the Metro underground system.
