アールズコートの安宿

2時からのチェックイン、2時前までに荷物を預けるには3ポンド必要ということで、初めての経験。この地域の安宿としては清潔、よく言えば時間厳守で安心ではある。宿泊代も安く、駅からもそんなに遠くなく、立地的にはかなりいい方である。部屋はちょっとせまいかな、荷物を置くには工夫が必要。シャワー設備やトイレはそんなに多くはない。広めの食堂があるのでリラックスでき、熱い湯が提供されレンジもあるが、食堂の厨房が閉まっていたのでどう使われるのか不明。

You get what you pay for when you stay in this property. It is a hostel so there is no maid service or towels but you have cheep, convenient and clean accommodation. The best tip I can give is to take ear plugs as it can be noisy at night with people coming and going.

This place is terrible in all sense of the word. The staff is rude especially the guy who does the night shift. They made a mistake with my booking and didn’t offer an apology and instead of helping me find another place to stay the two individuals who do the night shift sat there like two idiots. The guy told me to find another place and didn’t even care that I had payed money already. That guy is so rude he doesn’t deserve to be working with people. If he doesn’t know how to work with people he needs to find another job.

Ok stay but can improve lots

It was a bit confusing because I was expecting it to be a hotel as advertised when it was actually a hostel. Breakfast is very poor and of low quality food. Shower area should be cleaner.

Anmeldelse

Da vi ankom havde hostlet ikke vores bestilte værelse ledigt, og vi blev derfor sendt på 8-mands sovesal første nat. Derefter fik vi et andet værelse, men måtte betale 100 pund ekstra. Hotellets morgenmad består af toast, der kan ristes og dertil gouda-ost og marmelade. Det er det. Værelserne er ok, men der er kakerlakker samt mus og opsatte musefælder. Beliggenheden er super.

在入住时已经告知我预定的两晚，第二天却让我换房间，很愤怒，影响我出行的时间，前台还是昨天入住时的那个女士，而且很不诚实，因为昨天晚上我已经问了值班的其他男生，被告知周六价格是17磅，当时想考虑下，转天，在问这女士，却告诉我20磅，我说昨天晚上告诉我是17磅，她和我狡辩，但看我坚持，就让我订了周六17磅。没想到这家旅店这个前台女士会这样，订了两晚，多加了一晚，因为在英国或西欧，周六价格搞不好价格都翻倍，很是不爽，存行李要3磅

Soggiorno con famiglia

Il soggiorno è stato tranquillo, ma era necessaria una pulizia maggiore per i servzi igienici in stanza e qualche accessorio tipo un tavolino, un armadietto e un phon. Nel complesso giudizio positivo, anche per la zona residenziale ricca di servizi e trasporti. Ci ritorneremo

Really big hostel (almost got lost going to my room) in a nice, quiet and pretty neighborhood. Room was nice and almost every bed had a plug for charging. Further the 8 bed room had mirrors and hairdryers making it easy to get ready at the same time.

Bra för dig som behöver en billig säng för en natt

Ett helt okej ställe om du behöver en säng att sova i för en natt eller så. Speciellt om man ser till priset. Om man ska stanna mer än en natt vore det bra om det fanns fler uttag för att ladda din utrustning i rummet och att lamporna via sängarna funkade som de skulle. När jag var där var 2 av 3 toaletter i närheten i dåligt skick. Den ena kunde du inte låsa och den andra hade ett översvämmat handfat som inte gick att lösa utan verktyg. Wifi däremot var helt okej. Enkelt att koppla upp och okej hastighet.
