It's quite an old property, but safe and clean enough. It's a good option for a few nights stay. The station is a few minutes away and a bus stop right in front.

This may not be a 5 star but it is a clean, honest, affordable place - a good option in a place like London. It hides a gem in the back room.

There are interesting rules but they make sense and weren’t a bother. The place was clean and the staff were very friendly and kind. I loved the area, lots of food options and stores. Underground is a short walk away with several good lines available. I really liked my stay and will keep it in mind the next time I visit London.

A perfect English breakfast! The room was very confortable and clean but there were too many stairs. The personnel was very polite. A little problem with the temperature of the water for shower

Great value for a 1 - 2 night stay in London. It isn't luxury - so please don't expect it. The single rooms were small, but perfectly okay for a short stay. Room was clean and breakfast was minimalistic, but perfectly adequate for the included price of the room. Staff were super friendly. Would I stay here again? - Yes.

Hotel was fine, Bed was a tad lumpy and the room was very small, bathroom has a "doorway" so small you have to turn to your side to get in. But i was only staying the night so it was cheap for the area. The furnishings were kinda beaten up. Woman on the front door was nice, quickly checked in and explained everything. I probs stay again if i was in the area for just a night again
