Review of The Grapevine Hotel 2*

The name sounds nice the place is not: The Grapevine Hotel. My mum and I stayed here for a weekend trip to London and we didn't expect much as most places in London have usually low standards. But we certainly didn't expect the standards at this hotel to hit rock bottom. First of all: There was dirt everywhere. The carpet was dirty, the walls were dirty, the mattress was dirty as well as the pillows. The ceiling was dir-… Oh no, wait, that was no dirt, it actually was mold. We had a ceiling fan and (of course) a lamp in our room, both didn't work. The TV had only one channel and believe me, you wouldn't like to touch the remote. So there's that. To not see the mess that our room was we decided to take a look out the window. Another mistake. We realized the disgusting curtains were there for a reason: infront of our window was anothery dirty and messy and overall just filthy backyard. And the bathroom was in no way inferior to that. It was moist and just straight up disgusting. And to demonstrate how moist it was, not only in the bathroom but everywhere: we had a little visitor on our last day. It was a slug. A literal slug on our ceiling. If we were in germany our ministry of health would have shut this place down ages ago. The only two good things were how close the hotel was located to the Victoria Station and we had working Wi-Fi. But honestly there are cheaper ways to harm your health than paying 215€ for two nights. Don't stay here. Seriously. Leave it to the slugs it's obviously theirs.
