This without a doubt is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in bar a hotel in Kenya I stayed in (however that is a third world country and I only paid $15 dollars for that room)!!!

Location of the hotel is good and that's the only positive. Close to Russell Square tub station.

Hotel is massive I think that here are over 2000 rooms and so gets very busy. Check in reminded me of an airport check in desk the reception is that large and its just not like a hotel. The hotel does cater for a wide variety of guests from different nationalities, however English was certainly not the preferred language of the person that served me so ignored the questions I had. As soon as I stepped in the place looked stuck in the 80's in fact I believe the carpets were older than me!!

The room was disgusting dirty bed sheets, dirty bathroom and again furniture from the 80's and in such bad condition it should have been thrown away from the 80's. I would expect higher standards of a youth hostel. But I was lucky..... it one of my friends rooms there was used condom in the waste paper bin.

To note be very careful it you leave the shower or bath running... a bath can fill in less than 2 minutes and when showering the water doesn't drain so I was showering and the water was coming up to my knee!

And how much did all this (dis)pleasure cost £70 per room. Value for money.... I would rather have stayed in a youth hostel! It was a shame as I visited London with people who had never been before and this whole experience tarnished their view on London.
