    There was no WIFI I did report to owner was promised it will be sorted. But it was an empty promis. I was informed by other staying at the property that the WIFI is a continous problem and when working it is very week. The garden was in a very bad state and you could not use it. The tolet light does not work. There is no fans in the rooms and the room is very hot ( room 4) you had to leave the windows open and Waterfall Rd is very busy so very noice.The bathroom is not cleaned every day and it been a shared bathroom this a little of a problem.

    The kitchen was lovely and every clean. Good equipment. Room was nice an big.

    One of the toilet light switches doesn't work which wasn't ideal. Didn't make a massive difference either way! Could of attached the wifi code with the details on the text message but found the box anyway.

    Really clean place! Easy to get to and good value! Host gave us the main details before we stayed which was ideal.

    No television in room was disappointing as I would of liked to watch Match Of The Day on Saturday evening before going to sleep. The lack of an En-suite bathroom didn't actually cause a concern as occupancy was low on my stay.

    Room very spacious and clean. Comfortable bed. Very nice host.

    The room lacked a TV set. It was cold during the daytime in September since the heating system only operated at night. The provided towels were overly worn and required replacement. Additionally, the property was very slow in responding to inquiries.

    The shared bathroom is large and well equipped. Relatively close to Arnos Grove Tube stationn. Big gym in a walking distance.

    Major lack of communication. We were not given any instructions for how to get to the location & had a lot of difficulty getting in touch with the owner in order to find where the property was located including the code for the lock box & the room key.

    It was a nice enough location, property was clean and the bed was lovely and big and comfortable.

    Waterfall Lane is quite busy; there is a lot of traffic noise at the front. The rooms are double glazed but mine was still noisy. Another guest pinched some of my milk from the fridge too! Only 1 shower, so if the hotel was full (7 guests maximum) there could be a queue The automated front door system was 'temperamental' - sometimes taking a couple of minutes to bypass. Other guests had the same problem.

    Very clean. Only 4 rooms, at times I was the only guest. Kitchen is fine to use and is equipped, laundry facilities too. Nice shower, good hot water. My room was a good size. Internet was very good, never buffered. Despite what is said on the site, there is free on-street parking outside the hotel, although it's only a 5-minute walk to the tube and local shops

    We coincidentally arrived when Hussain (who oversees the property) was clearing the property, he couldn't have been more helpful and I was so appreciative of his help. The key-code security for the doors is great, Room was comfortable. Property has toilet and shower upstairs that I *think* is shared by all like the kitchen is downstairs.

    Sadly travelled to London for work, particularly booking a place to stay with internet/Wi-Fi to allow me to work online in preparation for my meetings.. but no internet… despite numerous attempts of contact.. no replies from Property owners or Booking.com… ended up costing me £5,000 in work penalties.

    We had no issues with the facilities as everything was clean and tidy. However we experienced significantly disturbed sleep as there was screaming and banging on the doors from the outside throughout the whole night. Whether this was another guest or a member of staff it lasted for a good portion of the night, and me and the friend I was staying with felt quite unsafe throughout the night.

    Tidy room and extremely comfortable bed, good for the price in terms of the room itself.

    In conclusion, I would suggest potential renters to avoid Room 3, especially at the price of approximately £350 per week. While Smart Rooms Waterfall Enfield has potential with its clean and cozy environment, the reality of my stay was less than ideal. It’s a place to sleep, but not one where I felt truly comfortable or at home.

    Review of Smart Rooms Waterfall, Enfield My recent stay at Smart Rooms Waterfall in Enfield left me with mixed feelings. The property boasts a clean, quiet, and warm atmosphere, which initially drew me in. It’s a simple and basic accommodation with a modern vibe, generally well-kept, and I appreciated the pleasant environment it offered. The location is reasonably convenient, about a 20-minute walk from Arnos Grove metro station, with bus services readily available. Additionally, it's just a short 10-minute walk from the former Friern Barnet Psychiatric hospital, now refurbished as Princess Manor Court—an interesting point for those curious about local history. I rented Room 3, which is the smallest in the house. While it might be considered a closet by European standards, it felt spacious enough for British standards at approximately 3m. The shared bathroom and kitchen were adequately maintained, but I encountered some issues during my stay that significantly affected my experience. One of the main drawbacks was the cleaning schedule. The rooms were meant to be cleaned daily, but I discovered this only occurred when someone checked out. As a long-term tenant, I found myself cleaning up after other tenants, particularly foreign visitors, which I found quite unpleasant. The lack of a hoover made the situation worse, as I had to wait for the cleaning staff to address the mess. Additionally, I was disappointed to find the door to my room was brokupon check-in, which led to unnecessary disturbances every time someone else checked in. This added to the overall discomfort of my stay. The bedding and towels provided were not in the best condition—some had stains, and others had an unpleasant smell, prompting me to purchase my own. While the environment may appear clean and quiet, my personal experience felt far from tranquil, as the atmosphere was often overshadowed by the chaos of shared living.
