Buckle Street Studios by Locke

The stay was very nice and convenient! We booked an early check in (from 2 o’clock on) yet something went wrong and we couldn’t check in before 4 o’clock. As compensation we received a free late check out (1 o’clock instead of 11) and weren’t charged anything! :) The room was in all clean, just the couch wasn’t as clean as expected. We just put a cover over it. In all it’s a pretty nice and safe area with lots of tall office buildings and we had a pretty nice view out of our room! Also the tube isn’t far away, I’d say 2-3 minutes walk. If even, it’s around the corner. In all a wonderful stay! Might even stay there again for the next trip

The room was not ready when I check in at 23:00. The staff didn’t check before hand and gave the room key to me. I only found out when I enter the room. I went back to reception and complain about it and a new room was given to me after more than 30 minutes, so I only completed the full check in process at midnight, my friend and I were exhausted. The new room didn’t feel really clean and I was told that housekeeping will only help me to clean my room if my reservation was over 7 nights. I won’t recommend this hotel to those who care about the cleanliness of their room. At this price range I feel like I can book a better room in other areas. However, overall the hotel location is really good just next to the underground station and the cafe beside it is good too.

The room is very small, cant even fit two persons in the hallway. it has quite spacious toilet but it there is leakage in the shower and door was a bit loosen. The closest tube station has no elevator but staircases, do note if you have big luggages.
