Very pleasant stay and very nr to tube station. (107467693)

positive comments Nice location checking in was very speedy lounge room nice and large, room was well heated. small food basket with some essentials.
negative comments No Plasma tv on wall only large tv on stand, No Sky channels were working, no Iron in cupboard had to ask maid three times,no washing up liquid. No view from balcony only offices and down below back entrance of Pizza shop. Check out time too early 10am, you have to take out your own rubbish from the bins why do not the maids deal with this ?

Very impressed, I have already recommended the apartments to a couple of my friends who visit London frequently. (97978916)

negative comments Check in process a nightmare, had to ring several times through to booking to get entrance codes and lockbox codes , when they were sent through by text the lock box number was wrong, it was 2 instead of 22 luckily there was a member of staff available , if it had been later I would have had problems

No overall comment. (108025238)

positive comments The apartment was of a good standard and clean. Good location.
negative comments We had made 2 separate bookings but only one apartment was available. The concierge was rude and unhelpful. On the first phone call he said he would call back in 5 minutes. I tried again 20 minutes later having heard nothing back. I rang the number again and again to no avail. I tried from a second number which was then picked up. I was on the phone trying to sort out the issue for over an hour. Rather than checking the records which I would assume Marlin do keep (?) the concierge asked me to go through each lock box to see if there were any spare keys. It leads me to wonder about security levels. The concierge was told that there were 2 bookings, provided with names and reference numbers several times and seemed unable to grasp the understanding that there were two people involved. The lift was out of order. There were laundry bags stacked in the hallway. There is poor signage on the floors. The 'bed' they put in the room because there was no further availability (this was on the second night) was a cot at most. The towels were not changed the three nights we were there. The 'welcome food pack' consisted of one carton of milk. A mini shampoo and soap does not constitute a 'hamper' of molton brown products.

Other than the lift breaking down I had a really good time (97184080)

positive comments The hotel its self was excellent.
negative comments The lift broke down on sat morn. I suffer from severe asthma/COPD and as my apartment was on the 6th floor which is the top floor it didn't do much for my breathing.

really pleasant stay - will use again (97313065)

positive comments Very good facilities, clean and tidy common areas, good welcome book/info pack. Very comfortable bed and plenty of hot water.
negative comments food welcome pack to include milk and more water would have been nice and more loo roll. The bedroom window looked onto a brick wall. it was quite warm and a small fan that you could use would have been nice.

Kelly from Northampton, GB (Young couple) 11 June 2008

Great value for money with clean, comfy bed, athough on the downside, there was confusion over checking-in procedure and extremely noisy guests who kept us awake for a couple of hours. (97047826)

positive comments Clean, modern apartments, very central and the best value for money at under £100 per night - NCP car park only a very short walk away.
negative comments No answer until we had rung bell 3 times as no Reception/Concierge service at Queen Street. No explanation of PIN number entry system either upon booking via agent. Extremely noisy guests staying either above or below our apartment, and because the room was very hot & stuffy, we wanted to keep the window open to let some air through, however, the drunken laughter/ very loud voices woke us and kept us awake on and off from 3.30am - 5.30am when they must have then eventually gone to sleep at last (and after someone told them to shut up!!!"
