Very good

a student dormitory close to...

Liked: The breakfast was good and the location is close to the center.
Disliked: The room was very small and devoid of any comfort. The stay was for 5 days and it was never cleaned unlike last year

Served it's purpose

Liked: As expected - use this site quite often
Disliked: All good for an overnight trip to London

Exceptional

Good for location and breakfast

Liked: The breakfast was very complete and with many choices. The location is super central and lose to metro and bus stops. The staff is very friendly.
Disliked: The bed isn't comfortable and the pillows terrible. The room is quite small.

So Good.

Liked: Everything. From checking in to checking out. Staff were excellent.The room was great, showers superb, supply of tea bags, excellent breakfast, overall spaciousness and very clean throughout The Location.
Disliked: Nothing.

Excellent stay!

Liked: It is student accomodation but you have everything you need in the room for a hot drink, rest, privacy, to get nice and clean in the hot showers, toiletries and if you are lucky a room on the higher floors away from street noise. There are even kitchens with a micro, kettle and hob, fridges. All the staff I met were brilliant naming Fahina, Sofia, Folika in the canteen, Jennifer love hearts and Soria. They were all well informed, helpful and cheery!I have been to hotels in London paid much more without such an incredible breakfast offering and not had any of that! The breakfast is up with some of the 4star places I have stayed! As a seasoned expert traveller, I really recommend. Thanks LSE Carr Saunders team. See you tomorrow!x
Disliked: The only comment I would make is the shared spaces  could have been just a little more buff but perhaps it is hard to contain mess when sharing daily? Nothing to put me off though as going back tomorrow!

Highly DO NOT recommend you...

Liked: Breakfast is good.
Disliked: I've visited 40 countries and never have I ever experienced anything as terrible at this. Security & housekeeping staff treat me like a child - when I asked to borrow the hair dryer (only one to share for the entire building), staff just said "one hour". Staff knocked on my door 6 mins before check out to remind me to check out, and 5 and 10mins post check out time. I had expected a short grace period is the norm. Bed was uncomfortable, I could feel the springs. Wifi disconnects on my phone periodically, and so I spent a lot more of my data plan that initially thought. Restrooms & showers are shared across genders with gaps between the stalls - I would think this is a privacy concern but fortunately I barely cross paths with anyone else while using the restrooms. But I hear all of them though, people slam their doors all the time. I hear loud door slam as late as 11pm and as early as 6am. I got no rest. Location is superb but you'll be too tired to take advantage of it because you won't get good sleep. I highly DO NOT recommend you stay here, save up a bit more money to go somewhere else.
