Many years ago, I used a very cheap accomodation: a real estate company rented flat in houses in a very smart area - those flats were on their way to be refurbished and sold. In the meanwhile the real-estate company rented the flats: it was very cheap and clean even if of course there was - let's say rather basic furniture in the building... ;-) Is there anything similar now?

I've stayed at over 20 hotels in Central London.
In my opinion, the Barkston Gardens hotel right near Earl's Court station is the best value for money. It's on a quiet street across from a nice square (Barkston Gardens) in a converted mansion house. It's a step up from "budget" hotel.
You can find many cheaper places around that area and also along Sussex Gdns near Paddington, but I most prefer Barkston Gdns.
You can book it for 52.00 taxes included, at

Tips for travel: Buy a an oyster card as many other have also mentioned. Try to buy a weekly travel card, as it gives you unlimited travel on both train and bus. Try to take your oyster card everywhere you go as paying in cash can be very expensive compared to the oyster card rates. Going for walks on a sunny summer day along the embankment and westminster bridge is beautiful, you can visit the tate modern/Britain art museum (free entry)and then watch the sun set, go on a boat cruise (few pounds), have dinner in Sohos has many wonderful Chinese restaurants or other great places to eat on a budget: Nandos, Mcdonalds, Wagamama. London has lots to offer so your going to have a nice time, with endless shops, museums, cinemas, clubs, restaurants, bars and landscapes which you could admire all day.What ever you do do not stand on the pavement with your street maps where people are about to cross the road because this blocks peoples way and during the rush hour it can get very busy. Have fun

Yes but you have to get out by lifting the lid.
