A charming little hotel that offers great value for a stay in the area. The staff is wonderful, and the hotel is clean. My only issue was that my single room had a shower but no toilet, as the restroom was shared in the hallway, which I found inconvenient. Everything else was satisfactory.

Good Accommodation
Stayed for 2 nights whilst incorporating sight seeing with a visit to US Embassy. Check in was quick and receptionist was very freindly and showed us the way to our room. Room was clean and beds were comfortable. Stayed during a warm spell of weather so room was very warm but a fan had been provided in the room. Our room was towards the back of the accommodation on the side. Even so if window was open even slightly road traffic and aircraft noise could be heard. No food served here but a good comfortable stay and rates were good. Bus stops virtually right outside in both directions. Would stay here again.

Late check in
Arrived after a day of travelling, quick check in, route to room exlained. The room was very clean, looked as if it had decorated recently. The shower room was small but immaculate. Top floor room so two Velux windows allowed good ventilation. Im not often in London but I would use it again.

Shower temperature was very cold in the morning. The stairs were in disrepair. 2 flights up, no lift. The stench on entering the room was like a stink bomb had been placed and i vomited in the old stinking bathroom.

I did the job as i only needed one night stay was close to the station and the US Embasy, the bed and bedding was clean. There was a fan, tv and kettle, Slept all night was quiet,over all it was ok. But the bed had no head board so the pillows were leaning on a heater, and the remote control was dirty ( but easily cleaned it myself, no problem) and there was smell of cigarette smoke in the shower. Would say it is over priced but then again it is London

I was taken in by the amount of positive reviews for this place. I wish I also looked a little deeper into the negative 1s. My stay was terrible. One of/if not they worst stays I have paid for. I paid for a premium room, room was fine had everything I needed for short stay. Room was located on ground floor right by the stairs and entry door. It was also in a different building from the reception. So you can imagine how bad this was. Noisy is an understatement. You can hear noise from all directions which meant sleep was a lottery based on how other guests behaved. You could hear everything from the rooms next to you, tv blaring, laughing, shouting, nothing that promoted relaxation. Entry door was open and closing on regular basis. Guests were thumping up and down stairs without any consideration for others. Floorboards in rooms above creaked when walked on, echoing in my room. Safe to say I got little to no sleep and left for an important meeting absolutely shattered. I will never stay there again. The only positive for me was McDonalds a stones throw away. I just hope others will benefit from my review and not go through same experience. A complete waste of money.

Small rooms
Ok so it was in the right location for the activity we were taking part in. I can’t say anything about the outer rooms however our room was at the top of the hotel very hot and stuffy with only a roof window to open. Room above a fast food outlet open till 2:00am. Window had to be open to cool the room a fan was supplied but that was more noisy than the fast food out let. Also as the window had to be open due to the time year we stayed, we were woken early by the light.

I suggest you bring earplugs or noise cancelling earphones in case you are given a room facing the street. Noise is extremely disturbing, barely able to sleep. Better isolation would be the next best investment for them. Also, rather small room (double room) and barely any flat surfaces. You are always wondering where to drop your stuff. Except that, very clean, good room service and about 15min bus ride to big ben and areas. Mixed feelings about this one.

Our room was in the basement, amd it was extremely noisy specially in the early morning. Street noise is one thing but all the hotel personnel gathered outside our room and talked very loudly to each other. The window opened to the bottom of a staircase in the back, so the blinds had to be shut the whole time. The staff were very friendly and the location was good. But the room was not.
