Hotel was affordable and the room was clean, but in terms of what the hotel offers it’s all very basic. You don’t get a cupboard in your room to hang your clothes up and you have to ask reception for things like an iron, cups and for the AC to be turned on in your room.

Stayed 3 nights. It is 5 mins walk to Tesco or Sainsbury's, 7 mins walk to Barbican underground. 10-12 mins walk to Farringdon underground.

Air conditioning was a life saver during the heatwave.

Earplugs recommended. Although advertised as soundproofed, I think this may only apply to the walls and ceiling. Lots of road/traffic noise. Maybe only if you have a window room/street view room. I will return as it is affordable, excellent value for money.

The hotel is in a good location, 10 min walk from Old Street tube station and 20 min from Liverpool Street.
But the hotel rooms are really small, there's not even a proper wardrobe space, two coat hangers are fixed to the wall. I was happy to pay £70 but it's not worth anything over £150.
Free tea and coffee in reception.

First time I’ve ever stayed at an Easy hotel. Blimey, the rooms are small! However this hotel is in central London, close to Old Street tube station and has everything you would reasonably need for a 1/2 night stay. Spotlessly clean, 24 hour manned reception and great staff. As basic as basic can be but that’s reflected in the price. Really good air con and a comfortable sleep too. Would stay again for up to a couple of nights

Usual small EasyHotel rooms, with just the basics.

The place had been refurbished recently so it looked great and clean.

However, the air conditioning was not working properly, it was just circulating air and not really cooling the place.

On the plus side there's a free hot drinks machine at reception.

Tried to contact the hotel multiple times before the stay. So did hotels . Com but they didn't respond at all. Whilst at the hotel, the air con Unit in the room was not secured to the wall properly so rattled and moved and kept us awake. Credit to the staff who handled it the next day with no issues. Location and staff were great. Room and customer service before the stay were sub par.

The room itself was fine for a budget hotel and the location was convenient. However, my stay was let down by repeated disturbances on the morning of check-out.

There was drilling taking place in the hallway before 7:30am, followed by a member of staff entering my room while I was asleep. After discovering the room was occupied, I would have expected this information to be passed on, but around 45 minutes later another member of staff attempted to enter the room again. I had also locked the door after the first incident, yet access was still gained.

When I raised this at reception, I was told staff had assumed the room was vacant because one guest had returned their key. As the booking was for two guests, I do not feel this was an acceptable assumption to make.

The room was adequate, but having staff attempt to enter an occupied room twice before check-out left me feeling uncomfortable and disappointed with the overall experience.

My first room had mould in the bathroom, and the mould smell had permeated into every surface which I noticed as soon as I walked in. I promptly asked to change my room, which the staff were very polite and accommodating about, though they didn't seem surprised.

My second room, 223, was better on initial review, but when I returned later that night after briefly dropping my bags off earlier, I had the same mould smell. The easyHotel rooms are not designed for air flow and ventilation, so they are effectively a humidity trap for mould.

I was supposed to stay for 3 nights, after the 2nd night of poor sleep and coughing due to the air quality I checked out early and moved to a nearby Travelodge. Don't bother getting a cheaper hotel like easyHotel, spend the extra bit and go to a premier Inn or Travelodge.

I really liked this hotel initially. The rooms are small but comfortable. I had a negative experience on my second night where my TV wouldn't turn off so I asked the front desk and they couldn't turn it off either so I had to pack up and switch rooms in the middle of the night. They called it an upgrade because it had a window, but the room was smaller and the window was at street level and more of a safety and privacy issue than a perk.
Then, at 4:00 am the TV in my new room turned ON due to a previous guest (presumably) setting the wake up alarm. Basically I got 4 hours of sleep that night. I felt like those issues warranted a comped night. The front desk said no and an email I sent to the manager went unanswered. If I had received a response from the manager I would have given a positive review. As it is, I'd say buyer beware and make sure you get into the TV menu to turn off the wake up alarm setting.

Functional hotel but takes 'essentials only' to the extreme. 1 members of staff in late so when i tried to check in i had to wait about 10 minutes for anyone to appear. 2 fixed hangers in the room so hung my jacket and jeans but the rest of my clothes had to go in the floor. No cup.im the bathroom but could buy a bottle in reception for £7. Didnt realise this till i was almost in bed so ended up drinking from cupped hands. Gap undet the door meant the room was illuminated all night but it didnt mayyer became the bed was so hard i couldn't sleep anyway. Had to cut my day in college short because i was so tired after no sleep. Worst £140 ive ever spent.

Great For Solo Traveler

My experience was very good. Clean, friendly staff, etc. The room was tiny, but they tell you/show you that in the website pictures. Bathroom, shower, and room big enough for their purposes. I traveled solo on my trip and had to leave my suitcase open on the other side of the bed. If traveling with wife, we would have had to open and close the suitcase(s) on the bed, then move them back to the floor.

The hotel is about 1/3 mile from the Old Street tube station. Great price for London. All around, frankly perfect for me, not sure how wife and I would have got along. :)

A couple of comments. I sayed in room 12 on the ground floor. The shower only was luke warm the couple of times I used it, despite adjusting. It was a little noisy from other guests during the night, as people came back to their rooms and left. The TV was a little unpredictable, with either only sound or not working. Close to Old Street tube, a great cafe and coffee shop nearby.
But given the room rate, you can't really complain.
