Location: dirty and extremely unsafe. This place doesn't deserve to be called a hotel. Avoid it at all costs!||I booked this hotel for three nights. The neighborhood is horrible, and the room and bathroom were filthy. …

The service wasn’t great. Slow, very bare minimum. The room was cozy and looked refurbished, but the carpet wasn’t clean, and the sheets, although clean, had some bleach stains. They only gave us one towel per person, no hand towel. The bathroom didn’t have a bin or a toilet brush. The room was very hot and stuffy. No shampoo or conditioner, only shower gel.Supposedly the pub serves food throughout the week, but they didn’t on Wednesday when we asked. On Thursday we ate there - I ordered Chips and the Roasted Vegetables Pizza, and I really liked it, very tasty.Unfortunately, you have to order right next to the kitchen; doesn’t make sense truly, they could just communicate with each other instead of making you walk around. You also have to go get your food when it’s ready.There was one night where a loud argument broke out at the entrance, and, having stayed at the first room, we could hear everything. It lasted for a while, which led me to call the police.

I found some dead bugs by the light above us, very disgusting and unpleasant, the fire alarm keeps on going off which 1 time it happened during the night 10/11pm and it’s honestly horrible since we can’t tell if it was serious not to mention employees always apologizing with "haha sorry" whenever that happens.•I heard two employees (cleaning ladies?) arguing with each other how one of them was not working and lazing around.As said by others there is no shampoo/ hair conditioner / soap.There was only hand soap/ gel which we used for the shower.We stayed for 4 days so that was really bad as we needed to wash our hair but at the end we didn’t and our hair got very greasy.There’s also no bathroom trash can/ toilet brush.The hotel is an aparthotel (apartment and hotel) no lift, just stairs.The front door makes it seem like it was abandoned.

I stayed here in 2023 for an event and came back here again even though this time where I need to be is a longer journey.Friendly / polite staff and very good price and nice clean room, well lit and had everything I needed.Will continue to use this as my main stay when I'm in this part of London.

Good quality accommodation on a budget.Recently refurbished rooms, quiet, clean and bright. Comfortable bed. In-room Tea, Coffee, Cereal with Milk and Biscuits. Pub below is clean and good value with friendly staff. Easy check in/out. Short walk from Seven Sisters tube station ideal for Alexandra Palace (about £12 Uber) and local premiership football grounds.

Lovely room. It looks like it has recently been refurbished. There is plenty of space in the room with an ensuite modern shower room.Nice little touches, such as soft lighting for nighttime, fridge in room was stocked with milk for the breakfast cereal, which was also provided.Check-in is at the pub, but there is a separate private entrance to the accommodation - you are supplied with a key for the entrance & one for your room.Handy location near Seven Sisters tube station.The only thing lacking was no coat hangers.
