Lovely staff, extremely convenient location. For the price point, it was perfectly acceptable. It was clean. With updated stuff it would be much more expensive so suited our needs perfectly as it was. Extra shout out to the staff who were so warm and welcoming.

The location is very good but the rooms are tiny - in London you should be out and about not in the room anyway. There is a small park across from the hotel and noise from the park at night can be a problem.

I've stayed in many hotels in this area and thought this was excellent value for money. Super clean, ensuite toilet and shower, towels, in room coffee/tea and kettle, 24hr reception. You can easily pay twice as much in London for somewhere not as good!
