Review of Park Avenue Bayswater Inn Hyde Park 4*

The Bayswater Inn has the potential to be great but fails at everything. On arriving at the hotel when we walked in to the reception and looked around we didn’t feel very welcomed the main area has some sofas which look very cheap and old and across from the reception area is an eating area which again looks cheap we chose to avoid eating breakfast here the next morning. Our room had marks all over the walls these looked to be either crayon/pencil or scratch marks this was on all walls there was cables hanging down from the back of the TV with no attempt to make it look neat and tidy and the picture behind the bed was not even straight it look to just be placed there to put something in. The bathroom was the best bit about the room although small it did look clean and possibly re-tiled recently the tap had some surface rust on it. In all rooms I assume is a sign like we had saying to be considerate to others in terms of noise unfortunately throughout the night all we could hear was other rooms TV’s and guests slamming doors this continued till the morning with rap music being played louder from a room down the corridor. In the morning we had a knock on our door about 9:30 we thought this might be the cleaner for the room we answered the door and it was a member of staff asking if we was definitely checking out and when we would be leaving even though check out time is midday this felt very unwelcoming and we felt very pressured to leave. What you get in the hotel is totally different to what is shown or described and I would not stay here again it’s said that first impressions count and for just the one night we thought we would be fine but alas this wasn’t the case.
