No laundry facility, though Expedia website said that they had. No air condition! Noise in lower floor on the west side of the hotel. The manager in the reception was very helpful.

Excellently located, just a stones throw away from Russell Square tube station and a great pub, Friend at Hand, also close by. First impressions of the room were soured, on discovering a very badly stained mattress topper under the sheets, albeit rectified very promptly after a conversation with the supervisor on reception. The room was otherwise clean and satisfied our needs. Breakfasts were excellent, enjoyed by us all, couldn't find fault in fact. A short stroll through the delightful Russell Square garden to the British Museum, then on to Covent Garden and before we knew it, wallop, into Trafalgar Square. Brilliant location and would definitely stay here again.

Nice hotel… No A/C … my problem is that I called down to front desk and asked to call a cab. It was not a “cab” seemed like an Uber … he couldn’t take a credit card only cash… we were leaving the UK (we spent our pounds) so he took us to a shady filthy ATM … where I got cash.. felt very unsafe and I expected more… my thought was that the driver was a friend of front desk staff … This should not happen… and I won’t return
