Room was a bit small for what we are used to but I think that is standard for London. Room was clean, bed was comfortable, breakfast had enough options, some staff were very friendly and helpful, it was a quieter area but still easy to get around with the underground, enough restaurants and pubs around. Overall a very nice place to stay.
