Very clean rooms and quiet surroundings. I only had an issue with the pillows which was dealt with, besides this, the accommodation was very good

The main lamp was not functioning. There was a used towel on the door hanger when I arrived. The air conditioning system was making a constant noise in the entrance hall, which does not seem to be a healthy option especially for those who stey longer in the flat

A clean, well priced room. The staff were however very unhelpful. While staying I had questions about availability to stay on so I called reception. They told me they were too busy to answer over the phone and I would have to come down and talk in person. When I did that, they told me to go look online. After checking out, I was not allowed to leave my bags in the lobby for an hour, a huge inconvenience

The accommodation itself was quite good. The room was very spacious and the kitchen and bathroom were alright too. The only downside was the lack of respect shown by the other people staying in the flat that kept slamming the doors and left the kitchen in a deplorable state

The accommmodation was fine but the noise was horrendous. I did not sleep at all due to the constant banging of doors. So I would not stay again nor would I recommend it

I love staying in Alexander Fleming House. Its location is amazing! Shoreditch is my favourite area in London, because of numerous music clubs and pubs, which have a very specific atmosphere for all live music lovers. It will take you minutes to get there from the residence. Famous Brick Lane is 10-15 minutes away. And it is only 15 minutes to get to Central London. The rooms are clean, kitchen is lovely and the most important thing is wireless, included in a room's price. I would advise Alexander Fleming House to everyone who is looking for budget prices, comfort and fun nights in Shoreditch

At £30 per night to stay within walking distance of the City, one shouldn't expect much. Having said that, Alexander Fleming House offers clean, basic, modern, and secure rooms with a shared shower and kitchen. This isn't a hotel, so don't expect hotel amenities (in particular a TV in the room - so bring your iPod). But if you need a cheap place to stay right near the financial heart of London, Alexander Fleming House is far and away the best deal

Great room near to Old Street Station, helpful staff. Look forward to staying with you in the future

A good place - clean and well maintained. In a quiet corner near many interesting activities

Generally very good - I would consider staying again. Cheap, conveniently located and generally quite clean. The only negatives - mould on the (ground level) bathroom roof was a little bit of a concern due no doubt to there being no exhaust fan, and it is quite noisy as all the doors bang when people move about. Nothing ear plugs can't fix though

Excellent - very well priced, with a fairly central location. The rooms were clean and simply furnished, the kitchen had decent facilities, and the bathroom was spotless. The staff were pleasant and the cleaners discrete to the point of near-invisibility. All in all a very pleasant stay

Room was clean, not sterile but fine. The location is great, about 3-5 min walk from the underground. Nice bars at Hoxton Square (which is not Hoxton market). A bit diffcult to find, look for Boot Street or Coronet Street to get to Hoxton market. Kitchen is fine, but some real cups would be nice to make coffee. Seven rooms share 2 bathrooms, that was fine. Free wireless at 512 kb/s, was also ok, but a bit slow in the evenings when everybody skyped home

Great location - fair price and does the job for what you need in terms of room. However, shower was a disaster and Internet was available through inputting a code into a keycom website however it stated username already in use so was unable to get internet access for brief stay

Convenient and clean London hotel. I liked the bath mat and the staff were very nice

Good for what you pay. Clean rooms. However toilet didn't work

Everything was fine. However, the bed linen did not look and feel fresh. I wonder whether it has been replaced after the previous customer. Overall, the LSE halls maintain much higher standard of customer care.

My stay at Alexander Fleming house was good. I appreciated the room, endowed with new pieces of furniture, and the cleannes of it and the bathroom. There was a strange smell (perhaps due to the furniture itself). The personnel at the reception was gentle. The price was very good. Unfortunately it's not probable for me to come back to London soon, but if it happens I will contact you again. Thank you

Remember this is a basic room and you get what you pay for. Very clean, very helpful staff and a place to stay for the night that is as good as any other basic rooms. Only point of complaint, there were no towels in the room, just one in the shared bathroom so I went to the local market and got myself one. The area is very good - pubs, clubs, restaurants etc. If you miss the turning for Hoxton Market like I did, there is a sign post for Hoxton Market, that is in fact Hoxton Street Market

Good accommodation, shared bathroom and kitchen, everything well set and clean. Noisy place from 6am to 7am.
