Negative Reviews
negative:
Bathroom facilities not ideal.
Some previous guests of Keystone House have commented that they had to walk up or down a number of stairs to reach the bathroom facilities as they were only situated on one floor, while the rooms are sprawled across several. There are also reports that the shower rooms are very cramped and not well arranged, although they are clean.
negative:
Bad experience with unhelpful staff.
While a number of guests report having pleasant and positive encounters with the staff at Keystone House, others have commented that the staff were impolite and not particularly helpful during their stay. It seems the experience of the staff may be dependent on who is working on any particular day.
negative:
Can be noisy.
As this accommodation is situated in a central London location, the noise from the traffic and public transport can affect those staying in certain rooms. There is also no double-glazing due to the age of the property.
