As basic as you can get in London, hence the low price. Good points: (1) I arrived 30 minutes after the midnight check-in limit but coud still check in, (2) staff kindly let me leave some bags there, free of charge for 3 days while i traveled.

I live in Miami & decided to extend my stay in London by 1 more day but didn’t want anything too expensive so booked 1 night here. It was,for the price, really good value.I booked a double with shared bathroom but the members of staff,with the owner’s approval over the mobile ,upgraded me to an en-suite room with no extra charge. The room,number 11 was clean, warm & wi-fi was working well. I was happy & will stay again in future.

The staff was lovely, the room could have been a little better. I had a lovely big window but my room didn’t have a power outlet to charge anything so I had to charge my phone in the hallway. The bathroom could have been a little cleaner but overall, it was a good room for a one night stay:)

Room 1 Requires a little finishing off with decor. For some reason the mattress was a little smaller then the bed. Couldn't find the TV remote! The one staff member helped as much as possible even going out and brought a kettle.

The best thing about the hotel is its closeness to Victoria Station and a few shops and it has Wi-Fi, the bed was also fairly comfy. It was dirty and the room I was given had no kettle or a working TV so I was moved to another room which had both, but I then had no cup to drink out of so used a yogurt pot my entire stay, the only plug socket was on the wall by the door and I had to plug the TV into that which then meant I had to either unplug or limbo to the toilet and shower (which was filthy so I didn't use) and the TV was balanced across two small cabinets that again I had to move to get right! The only person I saw who came to let me in and then back to move me said he was also only a guest who was "helping out" In conclusion I would suggest only stay if you just want a cheap bed for the night.

I booked one night at the Golden Star. I already knew Victoria was a great area, and since I was on a budget, their price—cheaper than anywhere else—was a big factor. To be honest, I was a little nervous after seeing a few negative reviews, but I couldn’t have been happier with my stay. The staff were polite and helpful, and I even had a nice chat with the owner, who gave me excellent recommendations for places to eat, drink and go out. He’s lived in central London all his life and knows it extremely well. I stayed in Room 5 on the second floor. The room was very clean, the bed was comfortable, towels and soap were provided, and the free Wi-Fi worked well. The shared bathroom was right next to my room, so it felt almost like having a private one. Overall, the hotel offered a great price in a great location, and I’ll definitely be staying there again! Very happy to have stayed

Despite the overall low ratings this hotel has received, I was pleasantly surprised by the friendly and helpful lady who handled the keys. I had to go to a different building to pick them up, which was a bit unexpected, but she made the process quick and smooth. The room was quite basic. The bed was freshly made and the large flat screen TV worked well with a streaming service included, but the cleanliness left a lot to be desired—it felt a bit run-down and not very well maintained. The shared bathroom was very small and cramped. That said, I personally found it fine for my stay, since I spent most of my time out exploring London. The location was a big plus, with great access to public transport and connections around the city. If you're mainly looking for a place to sleep and don’t mind a more worn environment, this place could work—especially on a budget.

This is a cheap hotel no question, but you cant find anything like this for this price with this location. The other hotels are either dorms or private rooms with shared bathrooms. The host was nice she let us check out late. Any inconveniences were solved quickly.

I booked this hotel about 3 weeks before my trip. I arrived to find no answer at their door and a sign on the door giving a different address around the corner to go to, where I was then told by someone that the hotel is not currently open due to repairs and no anticipated re-opening date. There was not even a sign stating this on their own door nor was I given any sort of heads up about this prior. I then was stuck in a foreign country trying to find a new place to stay same day and luckily it was not too late in the evening. Absolutely ridiculous I was 1 even able to book this and 2 not be given any notice beforehand by anyone.
