Barford Saint John Holidays

Great location close to major hub for underground. Noisey busy street but not a big deal if you don’t have to sleep with window open which we did due to the heat. One fan was supplied. Rooms were small. No flat surface to lay anything on. Kitchenette was a floating shelf 6” wide with an electric kettle and mugs. Bathroom was horrible. Stand up shower was small and 2x2 feet of floor space to function. But worst part was sink had 2 facets one for hot one for cold that were push activated. U had to hold down each to use before it ran out with just enough pressure to not make to too forceful as to splash outside the tiny sink. Cold started warm turned hot then cold. No surface in bathroom to lay items and barley room to turn around. A lot can be overlooked but this facet situation is ridiculous. Not even to be able to turn it on to brush your teeth is unreal. Holding facet with one hand and trying to wince with the other or washing one hand then the other Loved the location and hotel was fine but amenities were lacking. Definitely needs upgrading

First night, I was given room (in the annex) with non-functioning aircon. Fortunately they pass me a small stand fan. They changed my room the next day and it was all good

Very miserable staff The room was small… nothing like the picture The bath didn’t have taps… I had to fill the bath with the shower Room was for two people but only had one towel No air conditioning just a small electric fan

I arrived at the hotel to be told that my room in that hotel was no longer available and they had moved me next door. The next door hotel was a downgrade from the original and the furniture and fittings in the room were very tatty with stains on the sofas, toilet although clean was very tatty

The hotel is very convenient and close to transportation facilities. Staff are very nice and considerate. Kids friendly and many dining options available. We had a great time to stay there.
