This was the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. It was dirty, it stank, there was no air flow, there were insects crawling around everywhere, the sheets don't even cover the mattresses which are about as old as the building itself. The ensuite was disgusting. There was minimal water pressure.

I stayed at Thanet Hotel Annex during my visit to London. The location of the hotel is very convenient and close to many attractions and public transportation. The employees were also very friendly and helpful during my stay. However, the hotel building needs some improvement. The walls and floors are not well insulated, and it was easy to hear noise from the upstairs floor whenever someone moved around. This made the room less quiet and comfortable at times.

The step from the bathroom down into the bedroom was about 14”. My husband and I are in our late 70’s and both of us fell out of the bathroom onto the bedroom cement floor. Fortunately, we weren’t hurt. The Annex is a nightmare!

Disgusting! Avoid at all costs! Dirty and mouldy room, everything is chipped and in disrepair. No towels provided, the linen smelled like womens perfume, pillows stained and uncomfortable. Very uncomfortable bed. Cold room. No TV remote. Constant humming noise at night. Felt like descending into Dante's inferno.

The room was dirty (meaning the floor hadn't been cleaned in at least a year) and too small for two people. The ensuite bathroom smelled, was dated, and encrusted. The electrical system was dated, and the only two outlets couldn't charge my smartphone overnight, and sparks would come out. At least the sheets were clean, even if the beds weren't comfortable. In our four-night stay, no one emptied the trash or cleaned the room. Still, we paid a whopping €100 a night, but it would have been fine for no more than €30 a night.
