The noise from the sound system was so loud that it shook the whole building, so much so that I ended up spending the rest of the night trying to sleep in my car.in the car park. I survived until 1.35 a.m. and then fled the hotel. The fire exit door was jammed open so that the people attending the rave could use the toilets upstairs and the toilets were left in a dreadful state as a result.
The staff were totally unconcerned about the difficulties that I encountered and had a could not care less atitude.

The bass noise does not allow you to sleep

Although I agree with some of the reviews, you do get what you pay for.  And for £50 for 2 people for 1 night when there is a sell our gig at Wembey Stadium AND the parking is free, it's a no brainer!
This "hotel" could be really lovely but it is tired and there is rubbish everywhere.  The location is great, right by Alperton Bus and Tube stations.  It is right on a busy road but the noise does die down between and 1 and 6am!!
The room and ensuite are small but unless you are very fussy, I have no complaints.
Nice to have a kettle in the room and bottles of water.  Bed was clean and quite comfortable (we had room number 2).  The place could do with redeoration and tidying up a bit but then I guess the price would shoot up!

Good for the price

We booked based on location. Very short walk to the tube station. This is where all the positives end...

Check in was from 2pm. We turned up just after and the pub was all locked up, so we took a walk to get our bearings. Came back and still nobody around. We called the number from the booking confirmation and was told someone would be there in 2mins. 20mins later!!! We were greeted by someone. He then had to make a phone call to confirm our booking 🤷‍♀️.

We were shown to our room, which was a reasonable size for one night. Any longer and it would have driven me mad. The room was disgusting and all the furniture was falling to pieces. The stool by the dressing table was fit to fall apart, the TV was old and on its last legs. The mattress was so old that you could feel every spring. It sank so much in the middle that it was a very uncomfortable night for me and my husband on what was the hottest weekend of the year. The draw fronts were falling off and the lamp didnt work. There was dust at least an inch thick on the skirting board.

Our room had an en-suite, which was very small. The door didnt shut properly, the plug in the sink was stuck down and every metal accessory was covered in rust. The shower was the most disgusting part. So much manky green sludge all over the head and other fittings. The worst bathroom I have ever seen!!!

They seem to have a gutter problem too. All I could hear, all night, was running water. The problem was above us, so the water was dripping on the flat room just below our window. 

Disgusting! Never again

Stupid me didnt read reviews first!! It was a night i want to forget...The only thing i will say is that the sheets  were clean.. Bed was as lumpy as hell and every time hubby moved i thought i was gonna be ejected out!! The loo was clean but i didnt trust the shower..It was hot so we had the window open- birds and rats scrabbing at the bin bags in the car park all night--.Mess all over the place in the morning.. Other people there banged doors all night - cant anyone close a door quietly????The traffic was awful as right by traffic lights so stop start and engines revving all night..And a running water sound all night too- some gutter problem i saw the next day.The pub was closed when we got back to our room so never had any noise from that..We left as soon as we cud the next day and will not ever go back there,,Dont waste your money..

JUST DONT!!!

Spent two nights staying here.

On the Thursday we Arrived at the nearby Alperton tube station and saw the pub and after spending 20 minutes trying to work out how to get in as the front gates to the pub where you would assume you would book in were padlocked and pub was not open and no notice how to contact anyone on arrival things were looking bleak... not a good start!

The place looks grubby and abandoned from the outside.

It felt like a lifetime waiting for the owner or someone, anyone, to arrive!! 20 minutes or so waiting in the rain working out how to book in. 

Noticed three mobile numbers high up on the wall outside tried all three, two went to voicemail and the third answered after a third attempt of ringing. Hallelujah! -fantastic customer care. NOT!

Somebody arrived -not sure who.

we wasent acknowledged or welcomed in the slightest at all except being asked repetitively if we have paid or not, how much and what room we booked we kept responding we have several times over 5 minutes and we were prepared to show our confirmation email confirming payment and number of nights stay but didn't seem interested at all in us so he phoned who I assume was his boss and after a few minutes confirmed we paid. Seems very disorganised!!

Staff seem very abrupt and lack BASIC customer service skillls- this was picked up by other guests who mentioned the same thing.

After being told what room number we were in we were literally dismissed arms flapping as if too say ' shoo off you go' and we eventually found out where our room was..most hotels etc would guide you there, up we go on some metal steps out the rear and through a door (which is on its last legs and a dodgy lock - certain knack of letting yourselves in) 

Noticed door handle was coming away from the door to our room.. in we go..

Tried making a coffee, milk capsules they provided went off in MARCH!! - it's now june. Phoned the guy we spoke to earlier no apology or anything other than 'I will bring fresh milk"

Also I overheard a conversation (room is above entrance to the 'hotel') I'm assuming the same guy we encountered arguing with other guests over payment with some raised voices of "we have already paid" really shocking, untrusting and abrupt with guests.

That's not all. Using the shared loo and it was a very weird sensation doing my buisness with a very busy road outside your window with no blind or frosted glass you see. And they (the public) can certainly see you! especially at night!

Shared shower room was outrageously filthy with thick dirt all over the shower tray (which doesn't shut and seal properly resulting in water all over the floor) Absolutely shocking. Not cleaned at all during our stay I think.

Thursday the pub as far as we were aware was closed and had a fairly decent sleep. However Friday night was the complete opposite. the pub opened and attracts all sorts of interesting characters congregating in the car park behind the pub. Cars coming and going and being loud and very anti-social until around 2.30am, the little sleep I had was then interrupted at around 7am with groups congregating and talking loudly outside before witnessing them going to the science school next door to us. Where is the management to at least attempt to intervene? Very unfair on the guests who only want to sleep.-after all it's the main point is of a 'hotel' is surely, if we wanted to stay up all night we would of gone to a nightclub

So in summary:

Not the best impression from the outside.

Grubby and need of a renovation inside and outside. 

Non exsistant customer service.- literally never felt so unwelcomed. 

Abrupt staff only interested in payment and not even saying HELLO/HIYA/WELCOME/ *a smile* nothing ZILCH!!!

being kept up by undesirables in the car park until 2.30

Being supplied out of date milk (THREE MONTHS!!!)

Best part of the two night stay was depositing the key and getting the hell out of there.

All I can say is good luck to those who have already booked here.

I usually give fair and decent reviews as is testament to my reviews on other places but this was by far the worst place I've ever come across. Customer service and a welcome was NON EXSISTANT.

Just wish I read the reviews before booking. Absolutely shocking place

Poor experience overall. 

When arrived it was a pub there was a party getting set up .  When spoke to someone he had to ring another guy who I had to talk on a mobile phone .  Before I could get keys and look at room I had to pay £65 cash as they wouldn’t accept a card.  When I got keys had to go round the back of the pub up these iron stairs on my own as guy just pointed me in the direction I had to go.  When tried to use key there was 4 keys and the actual lock handle was hanging off as not screwed in properly.  When I eventually found room I was horrified there was literally 1 double & 1 single bed.  No bathroom or toilet you had to go down the corridor, there was no way me and my 2 daughters could stay there it wasn’t safe and I wouldn’t feel comfortable for my daughters to go out of room to find toilet.  If this is what you call a hotel I dread to think it was an absolute joke and false advertising and totally spoilt my night as had to find a way to get home

Not a Hotel

I think they should tear it down and start over. It is a step up from living on the street. No daily room tending, I.e., towels, trash, making beds. Noise was horrendous between the street and “guests” and workers. Horrible! Never ever stay here unless you are living on the street!

NFL Game

Wasn't expecting much from the reviews, but wasn't too bad.

Stayed for a game at Wembley, 20 minute walk or 2 minute walk to Alperton tube.

Stayed in a twin room, 2 single beds, tv, mirror & vanity unit, tea & coffee facilities, wardrobe and an ensuite & clean towels. £60 for the night with free parking. Above a pub & Cromwell Cafe 5 minutes down the road for a breakfast.

It's the not the place you'd take the missus for a seductive weekend away, but it's decent for what it is.

Will stay again.

Cheers
