 Dreadful smell in room a cross between paint and something in the air con system it smelt toxic upon entering every time although I did get used to it Renovators directly above my room started each day at approx 8 30 9am Incessant drilling hammering walking about and dropping tools Very small bathroom this was fine but amenities in wrong positions a badly planned bathroom Mould in shower alcove Decor is dark and needs modernising blankets on bed need upgrading to doonas Room very cold although central heating was on very noisy extra blanket provided upon request 
 There were many mixed reviews of this property so with apprehension I booked 4 nights It was a very cheap price for London at this location You can t beat the location directly across the road from the National History Museum and only a 3 minute walk to the South Kensington tube with an excellent variety of restaurants shops nearby The room was reasonably spacious it overlooked a local school but no noise issues from that Free wi fi Friendly Reception staff I didn t have breakfast in the hotel Price location outweighed the bad points for me
