“Radisson Blu Hotel, London South Kensington has an excellent location for museum enthusiasts, though reports of cleanliness issues give me pause. Its proximity to the Gloucester Road Tube Station is a definite plus for getting around the city. However, I'd want assurances about room conditions before booking.”

loud air conditioning cracked sink
The hotel location near the train station was acceptable it helped with transportation.
My room was quite disappointing I had booked expecting something better. The air conditioning made loud noises all night I could not sleep well. I also found the bathroom sink had a large crack they had tried to repair poorly.

small bathroom hallway noise
The room I received was quite small given the price I paid. The bathroom was not well designed the toilet was too close to the wall. It made it uncomfortable to use. The noise from the hallway was also a problem it disrupted my sleep.

convenient location functional adapter useful system
the location proved very convenient, right next to a tube station. i found an adapter in the room which worked with different countries' plugs. the hotel also has a bag check system available after checkout.
The extreme heat in the reception and dining area was noticeable. Warm air was constantly blowing from the a/c units.
