The ibis budget hounslow speaks for itself, it's an okay hotel that serves its purpose. The staff is friendly. If you want a clean cheap room to sleep in, this is the place to go. It's located near the hounslow central station, and is about 10 minutes to walk there. There's restaurants and shops around, but i arrived late and left before opening to really get a glance. There's a tesco grocery store under the hotel on street level that is a good place to get snack food before you leave.
The room itself is not too bad. The bed is simple, it's not the most comfortable and cushiony but it'll do. The pillows are on the softer side. There is a private toilet room, but the sink and shower open to the room, so privacy is not priority here. The faucets are not the most shiny and show signs of rust.
The hallway smelled like smoke. I think the hotel is smoke free, but i swear everyone that i walked by smoked or smelled of it. This is the clientele, not the hotel's fault.
Also, you'll hear planes passing over early morning, so invest in earplugs if that's a concern. The area seems okay, i walked from the station to the hotel at midnight and didn't feel unsafe, but i walk quickly and keep looking around.
Overall, if budget is your concern, this is your choice. There are other hotels on the same block, but higher in price. read more
