The California

This hotel is ok, in many ways very good, if you avoid the basement rooms. The only window was in the ceiling, and when it rained in the night waterdrops was dripping on me. The shower was either extremely hot, or ice cold. A friend of mine had a room at first floor, and she was satisfied with everything.

Very uncomfortable, shower head was broken and sprayed all over the bathroom, there we're holes and dents in some of the walls, my window blind wouldn't close fully and had a beaming light coming through it all night that was inline with the bed. Got almost no sleep at all.

The staff were all friendly and helpful, my room was finished early and checking both in and out was fast and simple. The thing that pulls this down is that the bathroom smelled quite mouldy. It was a little musky, and not properly cleaned in the corners of the shower. Water was perfectly tempered, bed was comfortable and despite being in the basement I had a full height window to a cute little courtyard.

Really clean, nice large room that had all the amenities (tea, coffee, water, hairdryer) that we needed, perfect for an overnight stay which is what we used it for. staff polite and helpful and perfect location (about a 3 min walk to St Pancras), felt safe in the area, would stay again.

I ordered a standard single, and was surprised when my room was essentially a closet with a bathroom. The bathroom is designed strangely so it is a little inconvenient, but fine. Warning that there are no elevators.

Second time staying here, first stay no problem was in 3rd floor room so stairs was bit of work as no lift but no issues. This time was stuck in room 108 which is basement terrible room constant noise no sleep roller blind that doesn’t close fully so lights from above stairwell always flashing on off. Hotel is perfect location but make sure you stay in second of third floor

Very welcoming,

Met requirements

Location was great, near to tube and train station with many eatery surrounding it.

Very good location right next to the station. Made the stay in London exceptional. Service was beyond amazing (shout out to Adeel!)
