Very good location, easy access to transportation and walkable for much of central London. The room, service, and breakfast are a real deal for the price. Rooms are modern, with good beds and bathrooms. Maid service was fine. Nothing fancy, but a perfectly good 3-star hotel for people staying for a few days to a few weeks.

I asked for a quiet room but was given one right next to the elevator, and it was extremely noisy — I could hear the TV and conversations from neighboring rooms. The front desk staff didn’t seem particularly friendly or helpful when I mentioned it. The room itself was fine, and the cleaning staff did an excellent job throughout my stay. I can’t help but wonder if being on a prepaid reservation led to getting one of the less desirable rooms.

The hotel was a very good location, and really close to the tube and also bus services, bed was quiet big a really comfortable, bath room was a little small but manageable, the hairdryer nozzle kept falling off every 2 seconds but they replaced it quiet quickly with a new hairdryer
