Russell Square Hotel

− It's a scam hotel.

− The room wasn't like the one showed in the pictures. It was very small.

− Everything. It took about 15 minutes for the door to be answered. It was answered by a lady who barely spoke English, wearing a woolly hat and slippers. The stairs are lethal and the smell in the hall, appalling, probably due to the stinking coconut matting on the walls . My window wouldn't shut and, as a lone female travel traveller, I didn't feel safe. A bed and breakfast {or at least the use of a kitchen} was advertised. I was told there was no kitchen and no tea/coffee or even hot water available in the room. I was directed to the two well known stores across the road. The toilet was probably fitted in the 60's, the toilet seat and lid had been worn down to the original white plastic. It was so bad, I never even contemplated a shower the next morning. I never saw the weird looking lady again for the entirety of my stay, there was a note in the room to say if I needed assistance, to go to the front door and ring the doorbell!!

− Tudo

− Outside traffic noise ta all hours

− Really not clean
