• Smiled as they said F U
• Poor conditions.

“JUST SAY NO! It on a busy street so the rooms are noisey in the front - I'm glad I had ear plugs. The no smoking room stunk of smoke, toilet stunk of urine. The boiler was out for the two days -so no hot water, even though they said " it should be fixed in a few hours" the four times a day we ask - it never was. The breakfast was corn flakes, white toast, tang, tea.”

• comfortable bed, well lite room
• no shower curtain - very small wash basin. Room stank of smoking

“My main request when making my booking was to have a NON SMOKING room but when I arrived the only room available was a smoking room. Even with the window open the room stank and it completely ruined my nights sleep.”

• The 'Front of House' looked promising. The price was 'spot-on'
• The bathroom, lack of breakfast choice

“When trying to find the hotel I sepnt 10mins trying to phone them without any answer. The price certainly reflects what to expect and I've never been in a bathroom that small, well I use the word 'in' loosley as there was not enough room to have a wash at the sink and close the door”

• Not a lot really. I thought the quality of the hotel was a disgrace
• none

“Someone booked this hotel for me out of convenience. I guessed that for '48 per night in London the hotel wouldn't be sparkling. If I was you and wanted to maintain some credibility I'd wipe the hotel from your list of places to stay in London. London is over priced, we all know that, and value for money accommodation is hard to find. I would normally pay '150 per night in London, this is the last time I'll go cheap.”

• It was cheap and close to the place I needed to attend
• It was being used as a DSS B&B. Breakfast was poor, en-suite was smelly.

“The room was quite adequate and clean. Nice cotton sheets! However breakfast was in a diferent building and only white toast was available. Perhaps I was too early, I was the only one in the breakfast restaurant! The corridors and reception area were very shabby, but I did choose this because it was cheap.
It would have been nice if reception had taken notice of my complaint about the en-suite. It was very smelly.”

• Best value for money in the area. Ideal for the tube and Highbury
• Television reception in the room was very poor.

“Like all London hotels, the rooms are small, but you can live with that. Finsbury Park is a nice old Victorian, terraced London area. The tube puts you in touch with everything in the city, and this hotel is just about the closest to the station in this area. Plenty of shops and facilities. The pubs close by are not so good, but worth a ten-minute walk up Stroud Road to find some fine establishments. Very close to Highbury, ideal for getting to a Gunners match. Good value for money.”

• Room not serviced - clean towels on unmade bed. Milk was replaced but cup unwashed

“Breakfast not good. Juice watered. Astonished to learn that rooms were only serviced every 2nd day”

• Close to public transport links.
• Smallest shower/toilet area I have ever seen.

“The hotel was adequate but overall of a lower standard. Dirty duvet cover and generally grubby in appearance, especially as the website stated it had been recently refurbished.”

• The hotel was exactly what I needed for my stay - cheap, clean and close to the city.

“This is a good hotel to stay at if you need to be close to the city but on a budget. The hotel is presentable with secure parking at the rear and easy access to the city centre via the tube, the station is a 5min walk from the hotel. The rooms are small and basic but if you are only using it to sleep and get ready in then you need nothing more.”
