Very Good

Property is in a good area. A lot to do in walking distance. Close to tube and central London. Building condition on the outside looks good but when you walk in smells sour as water damage throughout the property. Rooms are very small. I knew booking the property the rooms were not large but even smaller in person. Cleaning crew is lovely and efficient but front staff are not very helpful.
