Hotel 65 and Annex

I arrived at the hotel approximately at 2.00 am. The at the reception gave me a card on which both room no. and building no. were written. Before I made my reservation, I had read from the internet that the rooms facing the main street might be too noisy for guests who are sensitive and who have sleeping problem. For this reason I sent an e-mail to the hotel and requested a quiet room. Before getting the card, I asked the room clerk whether the room was quiet or not. He said "the room was quiet." By walking through the main street I finally reached the room. It was at the last floor of the building. I hardly opened the door. The room was very small. This was not a problem since I already knew that. What bothered me was: The room was used and it was not cleaned. Besides, the room was facing the main street and I could easily hear engine and wheel sounds of the vehicles passing thtough the street. I was so tired that I didn’t go to the reception again. The next day, I got up (in fact I slept only a few hours) and went to reception again. There was a young lady wearing eyeglasses at the reception. I told her everything. She apologised several times and promised to change my room. My room was changed that that, and the new room was really perfect compared to the previous one. It was bigger, clean, quiet and new-decorated room. The next three days, I enjoyed my stay in the hotel. The breakfast was enough, but breakfast time is very early. It ends at 9 am. The location is good. There is a bus stop in front of the hotel and there are three undergrand stations by 5 minutes walk. Considering the room rate, I prefer to stay in this hotel if they give me the same room.

Gute Lage, aber das Zimmer war schmutzig. Wir hatten eine Kakerlake im Bett und Haare auf der Decke, das Leintuch war schmutzig.Flecken an der Zimmerdecke und das Bad war nicht sehr sauber. Das Personal war nett, wir konnten das Zimmer wechseln. Es war aber nicht viel besser. Ausserdem sehr laut (Strasse). Bim Frühstück war riesen Stress und wir mussten auf einen Tisch warten..

The place is really a bunch of townhouses converted into single room hospitality services. More like student hostels. The room was tiny. No room for luggage, coats (hanger above the bed). Shower was so small had to shut off water and open the door to wash my feet. Staff was friendly and relative to London prices the cost was OK.

Nous avons réservé pour 2 nuits, à notre arrivée, on ns explique que nous allons avoir 1 chambre différente pour chaque nuit car celle que nous avons pour la 1ère nuit a un problème dans la salle de bains mais l'hotel est complet. En arrivant dans la chambre; catastrophe. Il y a une fuite d'eau dans la salle de bains, l'eau goutte du plafond dans la douche, le rideau de douche ne tient pas, le mobilier est vétuste. Toute la nuit nous avons entendu l'eau tombée du plafond. Nous avons donc râlé et le lendemain nous avons eu une chambre refait à neuf pour 3 pers au lieu de 2 avec kitchenette, télé écran plat; superbe chambre. Donc si vous réservez, demandez une chambre refaite et ne donnant pas sur la rue. A quelques minutes de marche, il y a le métro pour rejoindre le centre de Londres. Hammersmith ou Shepers Bush sont des quartiers sympas avec pubs agréables, restos indiens très bons!

I checked my heavy bag at Heathrow and easily walked the ten minutes from the Hammersmith tube station to the hotel. I was bumped from my earlier flight from Paris, so arrived late at the hotel to a smelly single room, with no window to open.. But despite the "fully booked" sign on the front door, the receptionist found me a double room, which was fine other than having no closet, with the clothes rack hanging over the other half of the double bed. Breakfast was simple but sufficient. Altogether, a good value for the price.

This hotel would have received a higher rating until I checked out. Upon arriving at my next destination where I found I had left an item of clothing behind the bathroom door. Called numerous times always getting the run-around and being told they would get back to me. NEVER HAPPENED. Beware of leaving anything behind.

The hotel was very good for me traveling alone as a woman. I also felt safe there ; including the location. Once you know where you actually are, the busses and the trains were perfect for traveling. The staff was super friendly and the Internet was included, which kept me in touch with my family. Restaurants across the street, the biggest mall about 6 blocks away, a supermarket 1 block away and a bus stop outside of the hotel. Biggest value was the breakfast with an army of girls to serve you. I did get a peaceful rest every night and yes, I would definitely stay there again for the value and peace of mind.

As a student on a budget the Hotel 65 met my needs perfectly. The staff did everything possible to meet my needs & make me comfortable. They were friendly, courteous, & helpful with everything from room issues to getting directions to local sites. Would definitely recommend.

We stayed at hotel for a three nights; clean, friendly staff, free breakfast, free internet access in the hallway. Rooms are small, but clean. I would recommend this hotel for young travelers, with restricted budget.

Hotel looked it had just undergone some renovation and its general appearance was very good. Considering the Hotel was on a busy road, it was quiet in the hotel and I was able to get a really good night's sleep. Main problem - the internet did not work all the time I was there. The staff apologized for this and were generally friendly and helpful.
