    unfortunately there was a couple of irritating things. no cups or mugs?! would have been nice to have been informed from the get go rather than have to go on goose chase before shops shut. Make sure you remember to bring

    They say location is key in most things in life and this studio was just that. lovely part of London with a nice high street 2 minute walk away, Hyde Park within 15 and Museums nearby walking too

    First off,i was sent to a different hotel to pick up the keys. When we got there and pick the key we then had to walked for a about 15mins with my mum's bad foot. Soon as we arrive in this so called "flat hotel" wecouldnt find the room, i went up and down with these steps that is around 200 steps and so steep aswell. First impression wasthe place was crumbling. Then after 5mins wr finally find the room that we first thought was store as it doesnt have any some sort of room number. Soon as wegot it the first thing was the bed nothing else even though i thought i booked a family room. So i decided to call the host and asked him if i can get a new room, which he made me wait for another 15-20mins even though i told him we in the rush as we need to meet with some friends. I rang him no answer then finally picked just to tell us no room is available for family. So i asked him for a refund but i have to negotiate with booking.com and of course nothing can be done as this scamming so called flat hotel wouldnt let me have it. So we left and got a new better hotel after wasting an hour walking around looking for thus hotel and getting the keys and fi ding the room. Its like a real life quest. I messaged the host the last time if i can use it another time and ofcno reply again ignored my messages. So dont even bother booking tjis scamming hotel. And careful when u booked it as the photos is so misleading showing all the rooms but not the one u actually booked. I will attached our conversation

    The apartment was dirty - dirty make up brushes in kitchen cupboard, mug stuck to shelf, stains on curtains. Funny smell despite having window open permanently. Mould inside fridge. No door on freezer compartment in fridge. Signal from TV very poor - wasn't able to watch tv The hallways dark at night time getting to my flat - no lights on

    Originally, the keys were to be dropped off, but we ended up having to walk 20 mins to collect them. Very cheap furnishings, 1 thin pillow, no table & chairs as in the booking.com photos. It was very dirty and looks like it had had a quick sweep only. Mugs were dirty, so we did not use them. Kitchen cupboard door loose. The shower doors did not close properly, so it caused water to leak onto the bathroom floor, making it dangerous as there was no mat to soak it up. Only 1 small thin towel supplied. The room could do with new double glazed windows and a good makeover.

    The only good thing was its location.

    Whole place was tatty & in need of updating, the approach to the flat was dirty with stained carpets & broken parts to the stair balustrade. The fire alarm control panel was beeping throughout our stay & seemed to be of no concern to the person who met us with the key. The entrance door had no latch on it. Whilst the bed was comfortable & the bedding clean the rest of the flat was dirty, with stains on the walls. The kitchen sink tap was loose & the sponges left for washing up were second hand & dirty. The standard door to the adjacent flat was interesting , appeared to be nailed shut with no handle or lock. I doubt that this would comply with fire regulations & listening to everything that was said in the adjacent flat was an interesting feature to the accommodation. My partner was so distressed by the condition of the apartment she went an stayed with friend in London for the second night of our stay.

    Well heated & good pressure & hot water on the shower. Price was cheap for this part of London.

    It was musty, dark and very small,rather like a students accommodation. The building was empty other than us and hadn't been occupied for some time. We were told it was 350 metres from Gloucester Road underground station on the main road, whereas it was half a mile away, in an alleyway behind a cat and dog grooming salon and Indian restaurant. Also outside the front door was a dumping ground for the locals to leave their rubbish. It was such a bleak area that my wife said she would be uncomfortable walking out.

    Didn’t like the fact you have to wait 5-10 min for your keys to be given to you. When we got in the place just looked really run down there was mold on the curtains and the bedroom door looked really old with some of the wood coming off. Wasn’t the worst but just didn’t feel safe and the mold just really put me off

    Heating was good was warm in room

    No one to meet us. The flat not apartment was filthy.you could not cook in it. Sitting room kitchen was very dirty under sink ,back of washing machine and behind freezer. No kitchen utensils and bed was stained. Not worth the money and we are disgusted and should be refunded. We think you should take of your list. As it not safe and hygienic.

    This is a great example of the sad decline in standards created by people who want to charge as much as they can and who are offering as little as they can. The property address is not located between the door numbers it should be but is on a side street further up the main road This should have been made clear when I collected the keys from a rather unhelpful and grumpy receptionist at a hotel almost a miles walk away . The property is extremely shabby, noisy and has very basic facilities. The only positive I can add is that the shower was good.
