Do not go to the Continental Hotel. It was filthy, the staff were rude, you had to pay for towels but only hand towels were available, despite the June sunshine the radiator was stuck on 'on', the shared bathroom didn't have a sink, and the breakfast which was included consisted only of toast and butter. Although cheap, this place was... More

Great location, and was in a very hopeful mood, having booked a twin room for £47. People had warned me this was an incredible price for London, and i now realise why. I arrived at 11am, and has asked for early check-in but apparently the room wasn't ready. It's fair to say, when i arrived back at 8pm for a... More

I am going to try and be fair in my review so here are the positives: 1) cheap affordable accommodation 2) excellent location However that's as much I can say positively about the hotel. We arrived early - and understandably the room wasn't ready but the man and woman in reception were frosty beyond belief. We had lost the booking... More

I stayed in a single room and opted for shared facilities as the other rooms were not available. During my stay all communal areas including the bathrooms were clean as was my room which was located on the fourth floor but didn't... More

We arrived early before check in time and the receptionist told us that we could leave our luggage in the reception and could go out if we wanted which was very nice of him.

Our room is on the 4th floor. Staircase narrow and fragile.The bed and wardrobe is uneven and unstable. The shared toilet is scary !! No window, people can see... More
