[@ojbeez5260]

There is an even cheaper room (off the records) underneath the front steps at £35 , with a small courtyard. That is literally just the bed in the alcove under the front steps...very tight...you showed it in one of the photos. Literally just a bed and walls and side cabinet and a fire door into a courtyard below the street. Stayed 2 nights...really cool little place. For £35 it's my go to if I need a night to stay in London...very reasonable for the price. It's grotty but they do keep it clean. You can't book it online you have to 'ask nicely' at the counter and just give a quick rub of your nose. However, I did have the courtyard to myself so could pop out and have a smoke whenever I wanted.

Such an interesting comment.. 👍

[@tobyjackman3212]

That's probably the sort of secret you'll regret giving away 🤣

[@ojbeez5260]

@@tobyjackman3212 True, but it is being refurbished and Cambridge now has a high speed rail link to London so no point for me anymore. But such a cool little nuance factoid. Sometimes the cleaner stays in that room but they do keep it like a hotel room. I think fire safety prevents them from letting it out (officially) because it is just 'too small'. Literally the cupboard underneath the stairs. The fire exit is literally just outside the room into the courtyard - so your very safe from fire. It is literally red tape , "room must be x-amount square meters" blah, blah, etc.

Loved this vid! I have paid £180 in a hotel along the Bayswater road that honestly had tons of issues with plumbing, carpets, decor, leaks - really run down.. So for what you needed (a bed for the night after a lock-in at an Irish pub 🙈🤣 before continuing to make further fab content for us) it was ideal! The bad reviews make no sense.. if you pay £57 in the middle of London, you simply *CANNOT* expect all the home comforts.. Fascinating vlog.. 👍

[@vondahe]

Me, too. And all the ones I’ve stayed at in Bayswater are like this up to at least £150 per night.

[@Quickblood1]

No one expects "all the home comforts" but when a place isn't even clean and there's no heat or hot water I think it's fair enough to complain and that's usually the thing that bothers us the most about cheap hotels. I've stayed in many a place where they say they won't clean it while you're there but I didn't expect them not to clean it between guests. Top tip, never ever take look at the mattress if these places.

[@pimpozza]

@@Quickblood1 I agree, a room should at least be clean! Omg, not even cleaning it between guests is appalling..🤦🏻‍♀️

[@Quickblood1]

@@pimpozza I'm exaggerating a bit I'm sure they try but in really cheap places they probably don't have the time to do a good job. I'm not suggesting going round the room ala "Four in a Bed" looking for dust but you also don't wanna find hairs in your bed or stains on the mattress. 🤮

[@sarasate89]

I don't think many people know that over the summer you can stay in university hall of residence. So for example right near the Royal Albert Hall is Imperial College. You can stay for about £95 there, which compared to some nightly prices of hotels in the area at £300+ it's a bargain, and probably not as grubby as the hotel you stayed in!

WT. I once stayed in a place near Paddington1998 for six weeks. It was £35 a night room only. It had a little payment laundry area with iron no board just iron. The clothes cupboard was wedged to one side as the floor sloped. It had a little TV and you could get coffee from downstairs. The doors and walls were pre-fabricated and they were still building the hotel around you, there was wet paint everywhere. However, it was ok. I left London because of the job and £250 pm transport charges. I had nothing hardly left from my wages. I went to Torquay for less money but better off.

Your video reminded me of another nearby hotel called Hanover Hotel Victoria in London. I stayed there on occasions years ago when I was a lot younger when my Venezuelan ex girlfriend invited me over when she wasn’t working at night as a lap dancer in the nightclubs, while staying in the U.K. on a 6 month visa… As for the hotel you stayed in for £50, that’s a bargain in an exclusive part of London. Those listed Victorian and Georgian buildings look nice on the outside painted white but terrible on the inside with plasterboard walls because they are converted into multiple rooms to generate as much cash as possible for the hotel. At the end of the day, so long as there’s no black mould, and the toilet is clean with clean towels and clean bed linen, what’s not to like.

[@kingbeastie]

I would hate to stay in that room but I like your honesty here - it's just yourself for one night and you did not want to pay more.

The best value hotel in London in my opinion is the Premier Inn Heathrow Terminal 4 which is often £50 a night. Easy to get into London via the Elizabeth Line.
