Very clean and comfortable, with a good location and quiet surroundings. Plan on earplugs and eye mask, because the walls are THIN (but I got lucky with my neighbours) and the lights outside the building are intense (but they lower them around 11pm and have good curtains). I will come back, it's really good value for money!

Liked: Cleanliness
The hotel was okay. It was a nice area and close to restaurants and the tube. As a solo traveller I didn’t like that the staff kept announcing everyone’s room number. Also, besides the manager and the amazing breakfast staff, the hotel staff seemed generally irritated at my presence — It seemed like it was such an inconvenience to talk to me every time.

Breakfast service was great and room was very pleasant and clean, with plenty of amenities. However, be mindful of noise as I could hear nearly every sentence said by those staying above and beside my room.

Small rooms, but was expecting that. Breakfast was good and nice to have. The closet door which was the bathroom door could be updated. A little loud at points due to the many doors in the hallways. Good value, and a great location. Near 2 tube stops, some restaurants and convenience stores nearby.

Place was okay. Found a roach in my bed that they got rid of. Staff was nice but all foreign and speaking loud at night. I could hear them through the window. Area is good but I wouldn’t stay here again. Cheap budget hotel.

Had difficulty getting to bathroom as there was a small gap between bed and wall I had to squeeze through. The room was L shaped. Cramp. Clean room, good location. But would not recommend. Was disappointed.
Single room. Bathroom is right hand side of window, accessed by this small gap between bed and wall.
