Forest Gate Holidays

The low cost was the main attraction. It is literally a room in someones house but we were made very welcome. Be prepared to take off your shoes on entry. I had been traveling for many hours so my feet were nit quits fresh. The bed is very comfortable. The pool and spa is 1.5 miles away in a leisure centre so we didn’t bother

Apartment was excellent, very clean with everything you could need. I would have given it 5 stars but unfortunately the mattress was too thin and I could feel the springs through it, so not very comfortable. A thicker more expensive mattress or at least a thick mattress topper. Would solve the issue. Central location in Staines Upon Thames, so super convenient. Would I stay here again, the answer is Yes.

Perfectly acceptable hotel. Good value for price. Very clean, excellent staff, comfortable rooms and goid breakfast. Easy access to buses and tube for getting around. Would stay again.

If your not familiar with hostels, your in a for a bit of a shock. There is 12-15 rooms that share 3 bathrooms. 2 break areas with a fridge and microwave sink etc. The dishes and some food are communal. Be aware sharing is not required but there is little space to put things in your room. The bed was small and thin more like a mat, not a traditional mattress. It was very firm. Pillows were rather hard as well. The heat was not working in this room but it had a space heater, that seems typical in Europe. The shower and bathroom areas could use more cleaning as hair. shaving residue and toothpaste was in the sink and shower. Dirty dishes in the break rooms. Paid daily housekeeping would help. The establishment was a little rough around the edges as a whole, but if you’re on a tight budget it will meet your needs. Just takes a little getting used to. It takes a lot of independence and adjustment.

Such caring and attentive staff. The apartment was ver spacious, clean and had everything we needed for a few nights in London. Beds were comfortable and bathroom/kitchen were well equipped
