Not a big hotel as they only have 10 rooms. But staff was friendly &helpful. Excellent location, only 5 mins walking distance from Russell square station. The room i stayed was very clean even it is small, enough for me. Would recommend to friends and stay again. More

I think this hotel will not get any business if it wasn't located in a good location. I don't really mind a small room, but i hate a dusty room, dirty bathroom and week shower, unfortunately Welcome Inn had all 3 those problems, not even mention those noises that kept waking me up at the night. I booked this hotel... More

Room top floor - very narrow and steep steps. Carpet not fixed to stairs so slippy and dangerous. Husband slipped and fell. Buzzing noise too much in room so left - moved hotels. More

NEGATIV: The reception checked someone else in to our room and our name. We had to change the room in the morning. When we wanted to shower it was not possible because there was only boiling hot water. We weren't even able to brush the teeth or wash the face without burning ourselves. Reception told us its because of the... More
