Hotel staff friendly and helpful. Room size was good. They offer breakfast, which is nice. Convenient location, easy walk to food, shops, Underground station, and other nearby places. The only thing I didn’t like, was the room didn’t have A/C. It was very hot and stuffy. They do have standing fans in the room, and with the windows open, it cools off enough at night.

Great location! So easy to get around, staff were friendly, some reviews mention how small the small double room is and I was prepared, but for one person, it was totally all I needed! The bed was comfy, I slept well. Great value if you're not looking to spend excessive money, but want to stay central to activities in London. I will absolutely stay here again!
