The Bottom Line
A very basic hotel for people on a tight budget who want to stay in a central London location for 1 or 2 nights. The rooms are kept very clean and provide the necessities you would need for a short stay - a bed, a hook for your clothes, a small wet room, and a toilet.
Pros
- Location - within easy walking distance (15 minutes) of the museums and galleries of Kensington.
- Cheap - £25 if you book early enough. Average price is £40 per room per night.
- Very clean.
Cons
- Can get rather claustrophobic if you have a room with no window.
- Rooms are small so would limit stay to 1 or 2 nights only.
- Very basic facilites. Have to pay for extras.
- Would't stay if you don't like the colour orange! All doors and 1 wall of the rooms are orange.

This is not a choice for families as rooms are for one or two people only. But for everyone else this is a great place to stay as it's clean and has all the facilities you need. This is a no-smoking hotel and each room even has a flat screen TV, but to activate you will need to buy a remote from reception.
This hotel really is in a superb location. As well as the South Kensington museums, there are some enjoyable cafes, restaurants, and English pubs in the area.
The orange color can be hard to live with, so don't plan to stay for a few weeks just because you got a good deal on the room. It's simply a good hotel for the price.
