Room was freezing cold, steam from shower set off smoke detector, breakfast room very crowded and dated, when I got up to get a drink my table was given away to another guest so had nowhere to sit. No plug sockets anywhere near the mirror.

Great location, clean room, comfy bed. Annoyingly the left luggage room was full & we was told to speak to the manager who did nothing. If they had put the overflow in to a meeting room or ground floor room it would have solved the issue and settled the frustration of many people who had to carry around their luggage around London for the day.

The single beds width extremely small. Breakfast starts at 6.30 am so not ideal if someone has early flight. One hour from Heathrow. Location is good and hotel clean. Also breakfast was good and downstairs area is lively. Staff are cooperative and polite.
