Private en-suite Room @ Liverpool street, Brick Ln

I would not recommend this to anyone as it is in an unacceptable state to be let out. The photo provided is not a good representation of reality. The room is very basic and has very old and badly maintained furniture. It wasn’t particularly clean and there was a stain on the bedsheets. The bed itself was uncomfortable, falling apart and needs to be replaced. The room is at the top of three flights of narrow unsteady stairs and sits above a parade of shops. The window blinds were in poor condition and aren’t fit for purpose. There are no staff members at this place. Contact with the person who lets the room is exclusively over WhatsApp which I personally didn’t like. On the positive side, the replies were quick. Some mugs and glasses were available in the room along with some coffee and tea. There was also an iron in the room and an ironing board available in the hallway. The location is a short distance to Spitalfields market and Liverpool Street. That is the only thing this place has going for it.

Great place and perfect placement in London! Close to bricklane and Aldgate metro. Had a mini fridge, towels and toilet paper provided. Only thing is the beds are not great, it’s very soft so it might now be for everybody. Therefore a 4/5. Would recommend!

Do not book this room, it is in a 3rd floor that through a tight stair case. If you have luggage you have to carry it all up. The water and electricity did not work until someone showed up after 30 minutes. Check in is really weird with WhatsApp conversation and key safes to unlock. Remember you have to carry all your luggage up and down a 3rd floor, and I am not talking about a regular third floor. You can consider a 5th floor in a normal building. Doors are flimsy and you can everything going on. The bed felt terrible, there were 2 towels for hands but no towels for showers. No AC or heating, lucky it was 65 degrees out so we were ok. Do not book unless you are a backpacker with just a back pack and don’t care about quality at all. We booked this place only because it was close to the bus station because we just needed one night to catch the bus to the airport to fly out. Would not recommend at all.

Une nuit rapide dans un endroit propre et proche des commodités.

The only positive about this accommodation is the location. As a solo female traveller, I would not recommend to other solo females. I arrived quite late at night and didn't feel particularly safe entering the building, or finding my way to which flat was allocated to me. I was on the third floor so it was a few flights of stairs through various doors (that slam loudly). On arrival, my shower wasn't working and I had to message the host first thing the next day. It was sorted immediately but not great to arrive to after a long day of travelling. The bed is the worst I've ever slept on - borderline unusable. When you sit on it, you're essentially sitting on the bed frame underneath, and the pillows were barely worth having. The furniture and overall condition of the room was old, worn and marked. There is also an additional £25 cleaning fee charged before check-in, which brings the total cost close to that of a basic hotel nearby. While the price and location may seem appealing, I would recommend spending a bit more for somewhere more comfortable.
