Opposite of Edgware Road Tube Station, Short Walk To Marble Arch

A mixed experience—accessible and welcoming, yet with room for improvement.

5.0

We stayed at the accommodation for three nights and two days. One of the best aspects was its location—it was close to the areas we needed to visit, making it very convenient and easily accessible. The room was warm and comfortable, and the kitchen was spacious and well-equipped with all the necessary facilities. The bed linen and overall cleanliness were satisfactory. The security arrangements were generally okay. Additionally, the staff member who contacted us was extremely friendly, helpful, and pleasant to communicate with, which we really appreciated.

− The room size was quite small, which was manageable, but the cupboard space was limited and not very convenient for storing belongings. The hangers provided were similar to disposable retail hangers, which were not very sturdy. We noticed that the window was not fully sealed and had a small opening, which raised concerns about insects entering or privacy issues. After returning from outside, we did notice some insects in the room. As the accommodation is underground, it looks good from the outside, but the interior feels a bit dated and could benefit from renovation. While the bathroom itself was fine, the lighting there was not very good. Since the rooms are very close to each other, noise from neighboring rooms was noticeable. Additionally, the corridor lights remain on throughout the night, and the light flashes into the room, which affected our sleep.

This is similar to a dorm room, reminded me of being back in the fraternity in college.

Great location and easy access to public transit and grocery stores

− Small, poorly laid out, uncomfortable, dark, airless. The furniture is very poorly laid out, the closet isn’t deep enough to hold clothes, I’m not certain why there is a couch in the room as it faces a wall and the room is so small that the couch and bed touch each other which blocks your walk across the room. There are no lamps, just harsh overhead leading or darkness. The pillows are lumpy and uncomfortable, and the mattress is larger than the bed and hangs off the side.
