Zedwell Piccadilly Circus

8/10 Good

"Clean room, location is great for theatres and shops, thought it was good value. Lack of window isn't great, but we knew that before we arrived."

The Drey - Kensington, Earl's Court

4/10 Poor

"We did not have a good experience here, our heating did not work, and we told management who came to fix it quickly but did nothing. Also, our shower was broken and the faucet head fell off multiple times, along with the shower being the smallest enclosed space I’ve ever tried to shower in. The biggest issue that we had with our room was the fact that our sliding bathroom door was see-through and right next to the bed, which made it super uncomfortable to use the bathroom right next to the bed through a see through glass door. Overall, would not recommend; there’s so many better places in London, I would try somewhere else."
