The breakfast was stated as continental. It was not. There was a choice of 4 cereals that was ok. You could have either brown or white bread for toast. There was jam sachets. On three mornings there was cheese slices as well . no cold meats or fruit on offer. We were the first into breakfast most of the time and the water was not hot to have a drink.

Disturbing low standard, in a state of disrepair.
This is the worst place I have stayed in my life and I have stayed in some bad campsites. The first room we were given was in a smelly basement in another hotel along the street. The bathroom was 'portaloo' style. The toilet cistern leaked into the shower area when the loo was flushed and the door couldn't be shut when sitting on the toilet. There was a damp, mouldy patch on the ceiling that had bits crumbling off it on to the bedside table. We went to speak to someone who said we could have another room. I asked if it had a bathroom and was told it did. This one also had a portaloo style cabin in the room. I was desperate for a shower after a long, hot day traveling, but could not face using the shower cubicle. I only slept a couple hours, then left as early as possible. The bed bases are stained, the bedside lights had switches held together with brown tape, the carpet had dirty stains on it, the curtains had something disgusting spiIt on them and the room was strangely hot and stuffy but it was cool outside when we left. I do not think this hotel meets even very basic living conditions. I wish I had slept on the floor at the railway station. The sheets did look clean.

Inexpensive for stay in a very convenient and safe London area. Hotel small, several floors but no elevator, breakfast standard continental of juice/cereal/rolls/coffee. Staff very pleasant and helpful. I would stay there again if we had a room only one floor from the entrance.

Run down
The hotel is shabby, but generally clean. Room was a twin on the top floor, quite small and the floor sloped, so the bed sloped too! Had to move pillows to the other end, so my feet were lower than my head. Bathroom was small and showing signs of age.

Poor stay at Guildford House Hotel
It’s a cheap hotel but I had one request only - for the TV to work . They could not be bothered even to look at the problem or to change the batteries in the remote. It is as though the guest does not even exist!!

If you want the cheapest room it's OK but filthy
You get what you pay for and this was the lowest price room available. How bad could it be? Really bad, filthy and old. Bathroom couldn't be used as it was so broken. Look, it's cheap but a couple hours cleaning and painting in each room and it would be OK.

Worst hotel EVER. Avoid like the plague
Literally the worst accommodation we have ever stayed in. The whole hotel is run down and smells fusty. On arrival, thought there was a homeless person waiting at the entrance, no, that was the owner. Checked in...entered the room and this is where it got worse. 1. Tv doesnt work properly because of aerial. 2. Left our clothes in the cases as the drawers were disgusting including a disposable vape left by a previous visitor. 3. Shower concertina door was held together by brown masking. 4. Tea and coffee facilities had no milk or even a spoon 5. No toilet roll. 6. Stains everywhere, carpets, walls etc. 7. Breakfast, we entered the dining room and left straight away. Breakfast consisted of some bread, a dual toaster, some cereal and a jar of cheap coffee. I honestly believe criminals staying in prison have better conditions

Cozy. We had 2 twin beds, and not much else would fit in the room. The bed I used was a bit saggy, but I slept fine notwithstanding. 55 stairs to top floor. Glad we only brought small suitcases! Breakfast is very basic. Cereals, juice, coffee, toast. Better than nothing. Would I stay here again? For one day, yes. For longer, no, because I like to have a fridge and microwave which this room did not have. It was close to the train, and that was important to us.

The room was in terrible condition from every corner to the ceiling. It was very dirty. My son and I didn’t even take a shower until two days later when we got to another hotel. This hotel should not be on any booking site. Just simply horrible. By far the worst hotel I’ve been in.

Worst Experience Ever!!!
The room was awful had no heating,smelly and the lights were not working properly. The bathroom was so small you could not move in it with the toilet right next to it. It felt as the bathroom was going to cave in. The food was terrible and the kettle they had was broke so had to always keep buying my teas and coffees. I wouldn't stay here ever again, and i wouldn't recommend this hotel to others

It's a great location, around the corner from bus stop, Charles Dickens museum and lots of restaurants. It's very old but the bed was comfortable. The bathroom is TINY and the breakfast is simple. We only slept there so it didn't matter. We walked and rode a bus all over London. I got the impression it's a family that bought this place and it needs work but they are making it go :)
