Location is the only good thing.
I booked a prepay only room for a week. When booking I asked for a first floor room as I knew there was no elevator and I have a bad knee that makes it difficult to climb many stairs. I was told there were no rooms
Available on ground floor but there were on the first. I paid. When I arrived, I was told there were no rooms “in my category” on the first floor and I’d have to go up to second floor. I had two suitcases and they did not offer to help nor did they offer a different room. Forty four steps to ground every time I left and forty four back to my room when I returned. The stairs are tilted to the side. We used our level and they were 10 degree tilt on second set of stairs. The beds were old and extremely hard. You know when you see the mattress with blue and white pin stripe that they are infirmary type mattresses. We had to use the duvet blanket as a mattress topper and the bed scarf as a blanket. The windows seemed to be original and did not close completely. There was wind coming through the gaps. This was compounded by the fact the heater did not work in our room. The desk clerk brought a portable heater that had bent wheels and the heating element touched the carpet. We wouldn’t use it at night for fear of melting the carpet or worse. We could hear the neighboring rooms inhabitants talking. Nothing understandable, but noise nonetheless when it was time for sleeping. There are many better choices than this in Earls Court.

Ok but…
Staff were friendly. Suitable for our visit. Bathroom was aged with damp visible on the ceiling.
Curtains weren’t the greatest, bed comfy enough

Great location
This hotel is in a great location, very close to Earls court tube station. We were in a twin room, the mattresses were very uncomfortable but other that that we had a pleasant stay. Staff were all friendly. They topped up the tea and coffee supplies. Shower was good pressure.

Would return!
The place is perfect for a few days' stay. Excellent spot in the city: Earl''s Court station is just around the corner, so it's easy to reach all the destinations. It's very silent at night which is a big plus.
Staff is very friendly and welcoming!

To expensive for what it is.
We paid more to stay at the Rushmore in London which at best is a 1-star hotel than we paid for a luxury hotel in Dublin that included breakfast and free shuttle service to the airport. Very small rooms for three people. Shower was also very small.

Good overall
As our stay was only one night we could not really judge everything. It was good overall except the small coffee lounge that they advertised was being refurbished. There were plenty of eating and drinking places within fifty yards of the hotel and Earls Court tube station again about 50-60 yards of the hotel.

My room(s) in this hotel was a good relative value for the price. I experienced a complication with a leak coming from the ceiling, which in older buildings like this wasn't too surprising, and the gentlemen working at the desk helped me get moved to a different room for the rest of my stay.
The room was compact but tidy and I slept well in the bed.

Stayed for 2 nights. Do not recommend staying here unless you don't care about cleanliness and are on a tight budget.
Pros:
- Location is great. Very close to the Earl's Court Station.
- Decent size room for 1 person.
Cons:
The room was simply dirty from the moment I first got there. I can tell that the toilet and sink were not cleaned from the previous guests. The sink didn't even drain properly as I would brush my teeth and have to wait a few minutes for the sink to drain before I could wash my face. The shower head was nasty and old. The toilet was dirty and had stains in it. Since I stayed for two nights, the housekeeper did enter and leave new towels so I know that they were in the room but did not care enough to actually clean the bathroom. Also, the bed had lots of hairs from previous guests so I wouldn't be surprised if the sheets weren't even changed between guests.
This is out of their control as it's an old building, but it also didn't help that the walls are paper thin and I could hear my neighbors as if I was in the same room as them.

We accidentally made a double booking for a 3 night stay. Expedia was willing to do refund but hotel management never responded to any e-mails. The extra room was rented out for 2 of the 3 nights we were there. I’m deeply disappointed that management never responded.

Fabulous location, on the tube line direct from Heathrow. Lift access at Earls Court station also. So close to tube but hotel quiet. Amazing restaurants and good food options. Very very convenient.
Staff super friendly and helpful. Let us check in early. Only slight negative is the mould on the ceiling in the bathroom,( the rest of the room is super clean snd serviced daily) The room was small but had everything we needed. Thanks so much
