Awful
The hotel was nothing like an “upscale hotel”
Dirty, damaged and needs a lot of work done.
Looks nothing like the photos advertised. And what’s with the big holes cut out of the windows?!
Would never stay there again

AVOID!
It's a rundown place. Once it's fully restored, and only then, it may be considered a real hotel.
Threadbare carpets, broken faucets, dirty toilet, etc. And, no shampoo!

Weekend in Kensington
We really enjoyed the hotel. I agree with some reviewers comments about worn carpets and light bulbs out in the hotel. However, our room was large and comfortable, the location near the Gloucester St tube station was great, and the neighborhood was quiet. The hotel was clean and had the amenities we needed.

Great location of the hotel. However, the hotel wasn’t what I was expecting. It wasn’t clean with the curtains having stains on. The bedding was okay although only one pillow per person. The rooms curtains were falling off. In addition there was water marks and stains on the paint, also the carpet had rips in etc.
