Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Understaffed. Hate using iPad to check yourself in. Put in disabled room with tiny low sink and no bed side table or lamp. No tea making facility in room (who wants to get dressed to make tea in a communal corridor then go back to bed?). Breakfast really poor. No plates, no yoghurt, no waiters, zero service. £25 for bread, jam and pastry? Employ some more people and actually provide a service. Won’t be going here again.

I was surprised how great this hotel is for an overnight stay. The location unbearable , 5 minutes easy walk to Waterloo station. Many restaurants and grocery stores right on the street. The staff were super polite, professional, friendly and helpful; the room is very clean with comfortable bed and pillows. The shower with good water pressures . The only suggestion is to install smart tv. Will definitely be back.

Great location, lovely staff. Hotel itself is a bit quirky and won’t to be everyone’s taste, rooms are a bit unconventional bathroom wise, and tea & coffee making facilities are outside in a communal area - but the bed was lovely & comfy. The bar is cosy for drinks, and doubles as the breakfast area - this is only continental, albeit a very nice one. We personally won’t stay here again.
