Residenssit – Rochester

"I stayed in the hotel for a single night alone during my trip to England. The location is rather remote from the main city centre and the surroundings near the hotel are a bit dodgy, without any services nearby. On the positive side, the Strood train station is very near the hotel, so if using this station the location is very convenient. No reserved parking is available at the hotel, only regular street parking. The hotel itself is very barebones, with a tiny reception area and a very narrow staircase without an elevator. In general everything is clean, but cheap and worn out. Hotel does not have any services like a restaurant available. My room was the cheapest option and was a very tiny room on the top floor. It barely had space for the twin bed, and no air conditioning. The bathroom was small, but had all the needed amenities, i.e. shower etc. It was clean and in a good condition. The room was ok for a single person to stay for a short period, but two persons in this room would have been crowded. Hotel has a wifi available, but it worked quite poorly in my room, so the coverage is not very good. I had the optional breakfast, which was served in a small room in the basement of the hotel. The breakfast was very basic but had the usual options available, like toast, cereal and yoghurt. The very friendly hotel manager was serving fried eggs on request. In a summary, very simple and basic hotel with some reservations, but also very low price. "

"Breakfast good. Rooms good. Gym and Spa facilities open by membership for others than guests as well - crowded and not so clean. Service was decent. Good location to excel though. Would not go again"

"Nice, friendly staff willing to help at all times. Location is nice and quiet, though it takes 40-60 minutes to get to the central London from the hotel."
