This is not a hotel, i'ts a student dorm at best. The rooms are the size of a closet, the beds are not for tall people. The property is on the train tracks and therefore noisy at all times. There was mold in the shower and absolutely no room to open a suitcase. If the description of the so called hotel was accurate we would have stayed somewhere else.

Great location, very handy to the Overground and a lot of buses. My room was windowless, which I knew when I was booking and was fine with. It meant using the aircon a lot, which is fine in theory but it was a pretty noisy system. Otherwise though - clean & convenient. Would stay again

I booked kip because of the location and the price and i wasnt expecting anything amazing considering the cost. So the flimsy bedding and pillow and tiny space with no window didnt upset me. When I arrived I was confused why so many left their doors open until i was in my room for an hour. Im from Florida and keep my home temp at 75 degrees and this room got so unbearbly hot and stuffy I couldnt stand it.the fact that these rooms have such little airflow is honestly worrisome and should be a safety hazard. The shower didnt have soap dispensors filled and the water burnt me because the water flashes hot to cold while your showering. Im talking steaming burning hot. When I contacted Kip they told me i could get a fan from the front desk (which did nothing) and didnt even acknowledge the shower. My last straw was when i walked back into my room and my room had been cleaned. When i checked in i was told my room would only be cleaned if i put the notice on my door to do so. My room was a mess from getting ready and i had left my undewear and jewelry out so i didnt want my room serviced. So when i came back and found my private belongings moved about i found it violating. So i packed my things and checked out early. When checking out i informed reception of what happened and the only thing they said was " thats odd because usually we get complaints that they dont clean the rooms that put their notice up" which i was just speechless. I asked if i needed to sign anything to check ..

Ok for a basic room
As it is described, Kip is a basic and functional place to stay in a convenient location at an affordable London price. There are the basics and it did the job as a room for the night. It was fairly clean but a bit run down. Our air con worked (large double room). Convenient cafes and shops nearby to get breakfast/supplies

Nice room but swelteringly hot.
The room size and condition was as expected for a ‘cabin room’ very similar but perhaps a better quality to easy hotel. The massive massive draw back was no ventilation and air conditioning. The room was swelteringly hot throughout the night.

Kip has declined in quality
I had stayed at this hotel several times before the pandemic and always had positive experiences. However, during my recent visit with my wife and daughter, I was disappointed to see how much the quality has declined over the past few years. Upon arrival, the reception area felt more like a bank, with screening that created an unwelcoming atmosphere. While the receptionist was efficient, the warmth and friendliness that used to make this hotel stand out were noticeably absent. The room itself was clean and generally acceptable, but it lacked the thoughtful touches that once made a stay here feel special. The complimentary coffee that was previously offered in the reception area has been discontinued, which was disappointing. The most significant issue was the lack of functioning air-conditioning throughout the hotel. Our room was uncomfortably stuffy, and with no fan provided and windows that barely opened, it was difficult to stay comfortable. On a positive note, our room included a kitchen area with a fridge, which allowed us to purchase ice from a nearby shop in an attempt to keep the room somewhat cooler. I used to wholeheartedly recommend this hotel to others, but unfortunately, I can no longer do so. The decline in service and amenities is too significant to overlook.

We had a medium room and it was a really good size with a big window, it had air con and the WiFi was good, easy check in and check out and good customer service. My main bit of feedback would be that the pillows weren’t very good, very flat. Otherwise a really good experience!

OK if all you want is a bed for the night.
If literary all you want is a bed then it's fine, the room was clean but small. Thankfully I had read some of the Google reviews and found out that my room was likely to not have a window or air conditioning, so I took a little fan which was needed all night, when I returned to the room after popping to the loo in the morning it felt like entering an oven, seemingly there is little if any ventilation in the room. Talking of the communal bathroom as can be expected it wasn't immaculate. There was a hand towel or it might have been a floor mat because it always seemed to be on the floor but appeared to be the only thing available to dry your hands on. I didn't get the impression that the bathroom had been cleaned from when I checked in to when I checked out. You might want to take ear plugs as the rooms appear to have no noise proofing, there was a woman screaming, and I do mean screaming in the corridor in the morning and the person in the room next to me had the phone alarm set to vibrate at 9am, I know because I could hear it vibrating for 5 min. The room was tiny, as in a single bed and the rest of the room was about the same footprint as a single bed, so I would say it was about a quarter (if that) of the size of a normal hotel room, which when you think about it, and the communal bathroom, for £75, isn't really great value. I wouldn't refuse to stay here again but I would certainly happily pay a bit more for something better.
