The AC worked great. Check in was simple, great location. A bit noisy with music nearby until 23:00 and the rumble of the train until midnight, but that’s downtown London. The whole place is musty smelling. Carpet everywhere that is holding the smell too. The toilet would run after almost every flush rendering it useless for the next person. The TV is not connected to the internet, so no streaming or screen sharing ability.

Hotel is in a great location. It's clean, comfortable, and the breakfast was good. The staff were particularly friendly and helpful: It was a hot day and the air-conditioning in our room wasn't working, so we were offered a discount and complimentary breakfast. Thank you!

The room was clean and so was the rest of the hotel. However we booked a room here because it said the rooms had AC and when we checked in we were told our room didn’t have AC and they didn’t have any rooms available with AC
