London

A disastrous hotel, every cent spent too much! No hot water, toilet defects, dirty and unattended rooms. Although the staff is friendly, the rest can be forgotten, not even enough for one night... despite the low price and the proximity of the Emirates Stadium (Arsenal London) definitely not recommended.

What a disaster!

So, I went August last year for a family vacation. 
Just to get to the place it was almost an adventure but once you get it right, its ok.
A lot of people were desapointed because they confused it with some other that has same name in the London area.
This hotel should be treated as place to sleep and nothing else. Doesnt have any kind of luxuries, and the rooms are a bit cold. But the staff were actually kinda nice because we brought a extra person to the room ( my cousin joined our family vacation after we made our reservations) and when we asked if she could joins us in our room and pay the extra fee, they let her for free!

Its located in a racially diverse neighbourhood, so if you love ethnic food, you are definitely well served. You can catch the underground and within 25 minutes you are close to all the great attractions that London has to offer. We seldom had to change lines and everything.
The downside its the lack of Wi-Fi/Internet. The Internet service its terrible, non-existing.
So, if you are looking for a cheap place just to sleep and keep your things safe, this hotel its the place.

Just... alright.

Clean, cheap, good continental breskfast. Good budget hotel. Only issue it wasnt warm but snow -4 tempratures. Extra quilt was given when asked and maintenance guy checked radiators next day so maybe issues due to bad weather. Was able to store luggage next day no issue after checkout due to late train home. Please be aware only free wifi available in reception area. Value for money 

Good budget hotel

Well, well, if you think you're going on a vacation to know the city and you're just going to go to the Ducarte and sleep, then yes, it does. The hotel is quite old and crispy with every step you take, the room that first hit us impacts you and you think where I've gotten myself!!! But the beds are super comfortable, the shower water is super warm, which is appreciated after a day of tourism, in the room there is heating so that the few hours we spend in the room are at least these comfortable! point of favor is your location, the metro stop is super rolling, and along the way there are quite a few shops where you can buy food and drink.

 Service that does not exist.

We stayed in this hotel between 22nd Feb-26Feb.. All staff are friendly.Breakfast is good. A Perfect stay and well equipped. We stayed in room 501 and it was just perfect for us. Thanks for making our holiday a memorable one.

Amazing hotel.

This hotel is nothing fancy. It is a pretty average looking hotel with a very basic. Having said that, I would stay here again. The room was spacious and clean. It was also cleaned daily. They had a decent spread for breakfast which was a plus. It is also very near a train station so it is not a far walk at all which was helpful as we had a lot of luggage. The staff at reception were always friendly. no matter what time we got in. My only complaint was that we stayed at the hotel for a week and there was no working WiFi while we were there. We had to walk across the courtyard to use the WiFi from the hotel next door as they are apparently owned by the same people. It was a bit frustrating not having WiFi especially as they told us it would only take a day or two to fix. Overall though it was worth the money and, although very simple, had everything else we needed.

Basic but Decent

Honestly I have no idea how this hotel is still standing.
To begin with when we arrived there was no record of our booking and especially at the beginning the receptionists were very dismissive of us.
Finally we brought out a print out of our booking confirmation from booking.com and it took them near half an hour to book us back in.
In the reception there was a cat on one of the sofas, how unprofessional. My friend has allergies and it bit another of my friends.
Eventually once we got to our room we found the floors of the upper corridor to be slanted and seemingly unsafe. Our hotel door had a large gap underneath where the door didn't reach due to the slanted floor.
Once in our room we realised how badly the floor was as our bed was tilted so our feet were slightly higher than our heads. We also placed a £2 on the floor and it rolled and also gained speed due to the slant!
There were very large cracks everywhere in the walls and i feel this place is structurally unsafe.
Next, our bathroom stank of damp, the toilet seat wasn't attached to the toilet and only half of the shower head actually worked.
We requested a hairdryer from reception which we got but it turned itself off every 10 seconds due to overheating. We had to CLEAN all the dust and dirt out of the back of it to make it work.
Also when you plugged in any electronics the light started to flicker and the kettle did not turn on properly, it had to be held down to make it work.

I would never stay here again. £30 each per night for an unsafe, damp filled hotel with dismissive receptionists? No thanks!

They Accidentally Deleted Our Booking, Slanted Floors AND MORE.

It's truly unpleasant and discomfort experienced with the hotel on our Christmast holiday (24 Dec - 27 Dec'17). Here are the facts witnessed for you to be considered before book on line the hotel.  

The hotel could not arrange our room (me & my family) as I was booked & paid in advance to Agoda on April 2017.  The lady in charge at hotel receptionist said that they don't have my data.  She said that i was booked on April17 while there was management changes in Oct 2017. So that was why they didn't have my data. She said that they still have the same type room that I booked, but we have to settled in advance, otherwise me & my family would not get the room. How come ????  In the middle of the night just landed from Heathrow without local sim card, should we find other hotel ???  I forced to settled  (again).  So I have done double payment, I paid to Agoda on April'17 and I should paid to the hotel on our arrival date - Dec 24'17. 

The lady in charge that night is not willing to help us to contact Agoda Customer Service. In room, I emailed my complaint to Agoda Customer service (Dec 24'2018), and get the real response in Jan 6'2018.   

Agoda explain that the Hotel doesn't have a system whereby they need to update the room inventory at Agoda's website as they should be on top of their room inventory. Any management changes, and they never reach Agoda up until my bad experience. No consolidation from their end and the customer become victim fro the bad experience.

The hotel is basic, look old and shabby but clean, and generous with towels and toiletries. Hot water and heater is work well, fair breakfast, walking distance to Finsbury Park Station. 

But please consider when you want to book this hotel via on line. Please make sure my bad experience will not happens to you.  Thanks to Agoda that have settle back my double payment.

More Facts

Stayed here for one night as a group of 6 lads. £100 for two rooms with breakfast. Rooms very basic, but clean and warm. 24 hour service on reception, perfect when having a mad night out in London. Overall good price budget hotel 

Good value budget hotel 

I stayed here for a night before my early morning flight the next day. I booked the single room and it was very small. I barely had any space to move. I had to wait in line during check in as the process was very long. However, the hotel is very central, walking distance to 2 tube stations (Queensway and Bayswater) and also lots of restaurants nearby.
