The room was lovely and clean. The balcony was brilliant. The breakfast could have had more choice, but was pleasant enough. The staff were lovely and especially attentive when I had a fall, they were brilliant. Lovely & quirky hotel, conveniently located near Waterloo station. Thank you for our stay.
