Avis Hotel, Large Meeting Room

quite disappointed by our stay here. it cost us £160 for 2 nights. negatives - no lifts, stank of weed whilst we were there. no AC. our bathroom was inside a closet with saloon doors so no real privacy if you’re with someone. TMI but i wasn’t able to use the toilet properly the whole time we were there because i felt shy. one of the light switches didn’t work. none of the lamps had working bulbs. the front door lock was really awkward and took a load of jiggling around to get it open. the shower had a leak so it was squirting out of one side aggressively and it ended up wetting my whole head even though i was just trying to take a body shower. felt uncomfortable in the shower though because if someone is sitting on the bed they can definitely see through the saloon door. really strange design. if you’re going to do a tiny bathroom like that, at least do a top to bottom covered sliding door. not close to any transport links - every option on maps said it was quite a walk to the train station. ended up getting a cab into london, was a 10 minute wait for an uber every time as it’s quite far out from everywhere. positives - free and easy parking out front and they let us leave the car there for a few hours even after we’d checked out. staff is friendly. it’s a 10-15 minute walk to bromley high street and the shopping centre and feels safe to walk in the evening. lovely area! when we picked up the car later that evening, the staff let us use the toilets before heading on our 3 hour drive home even though technically we were no longer guests. mini fridge in the room which was useful. nice big windows to let air in which helped as we had no AC. TV was decent enough. if i stayed here again i’d pick a different room. ours was fairly run down. my boyfriend caught a glimpse into another room when the cleaning lady was there, he said it was much larger and nicer with a normal bathroom. we got very unlucky i guess, but was frustrating as it wasn’t cheap at £160 for 2 nights. would’ve had a better time as the bromley premier inn which was cheaper. breakfast was not included either.

Only giving a 1 star because you have to. Absolutely disgusting hotel. The dirt all around the floor was horrible. We had to put the wardrobe in front of the door because it didn’t lock properly. The fan had no back on, the plug sockets were falling of the wall. when we arrived no pillows had any cases on. The bedding was covered in stains. The kettle was so dirty we don’t think it had ever been cleaned. I honestly don’t know how the place is still running. I wouldn’t ever recommend to anybody. Reached out to the manager and they don’t seem to be interested.
