Chandlers Bar and Rooms

Was spotlessly clean and comfortable.

Luise went over and beyond to welcome us off a hideouse journey on East Midlands Railway as part of Euston was shut. She and her husband have a very stylish set of rooms above a chilled cocktail bar catering to the 40-60 yr old demographic, so all charming and polite. The room was fun and mini fridge, toaster, kettle just brilliant. So that is our thought: just brilliant!

Larger bath towels!

Great location, easy to find, lovely big room with quirky details and lots of space, sofa, comfy bed

The only issue we found was a terrible smell in the entrance hall and up the stairs. It was genuinely terrible and we noticed it coming into the room a too. No idea what it was but it was really unpleasant.

Good location, good size room, modern bathroom, great size terrace. Comfy bed and good quality bedding and towels. Interesting light fittings.

Overall first impresson of Room 3 was very good but then more things kept showing up. Only one teabag for two people but in the end it didn't matter as the milk had gone off and was quite smelly so couldn't have a brew in the morning. No point reporting it as we were going home. The one complimentary small cake was hard as rock, almost impossible to cut to share between us so chucked it away. Water had been left in the kettle which should never happen, it should be left empty. The bathroom tap needs a good clean along the channel where the water flows out. Also the container for shampoo in the shower just kept falling off so pretty useless. The sealant on the shower base was black in some places but there was a bottle of bleach in the bathroom cupboard which if used would have cleaned it. In the middle drawer of the desk I found an opened half empty bag of crisps, an empty chocolate wrapper and a bag of cookies dated 28/08, quite a few days before our stay. Most of the drawers need hoovering out. All of these are just basic cleaning requirements. The french doors were very difficult to lock. A lot more attention to detail is required in the room as it spolied what should have been a pleasant visit. Ok, so now we are on to the entrance area and stairs, again these need a thorough clean, the plants are very dusty and there is quite a musty smell, not a great first impression. I did leave all the above details on the review form in the room..
