Great value for a 1 - 2 night stay in London. It isn't luxury - so please don't expect it. The single rooms were small, but perfectly okay for a short stay. Room was clean and breakfast was minimalistic, but perfectly adequate for the included price of the room. Staff were super friendly. Would I stay here again? - Yes.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The staff was courteous and considerate, but the room lacked basic amenities like hot water, natural light, some room lights not working, not enough storage space, lack of sufficient sockets. Expedia site mentioned that if executive family rooms were book then we would receive high rise room but again that wasn't the case. Although, on 2nd day, the staff arranged for a different room for the inconvenience. But still we had to go through the hassle of reshuffling things. Overall rating I would give is mid.

There are interesting rules but they make sense and weren’t a bother. The place was clean and the staff were very friendly and kind. I loved the area, lots of food options and stores. Underground is a short walk away with several good lines available. I really liked my stay and will keep it in mind the next time I visit London.

Nice clean hotel, staff very pleasant. Fairly basic breakfast but enough. After checkout and a day out and about, we were kindly offered to help ourselves to a cup of tea before heading home, which was a nice touch.

Hotel was fine, Bed was a tad lumpy and the room was very small, bathroom has a "doorway" so small you have to turn to your side to get in. But i was only staying the night so it was cheap for the area. The furnishings were kinda beaten up. Woman on the front door was nice, quickly checked in and explained everything. I probs stay again if i was in the area for just a night again

Lovely staff and nice little budget hotel :)

Three friends stayed at this hotel for 3 night. I must say that I was very please with the hotel. It is very nice and clean. The staff are very lovely!! And they sure give the extra mile to ensure we were looked after and support us as for example to allow us to a late check out as we wanted to experience a bit more of London before we said good bye. They were always supporting i.e. if we needed more towels or tea bags, more toast in breakfast so all good. The only think I would say is the shower was good but the drainage of the shower was a bit of an issue as you were stepping into the water for previous showers from your friends. So that is the only think I would change. Other than that the price was good! And the continental breakfast was just right to start the day. Thank you for all the attentions for us we are considering to come back soon.!
