My review is that this hotel is a good value. There is nothing fancy with the rooms. The bathrooms are small and the room size was fine for 2 people who just slept and showered in the room. We liked the Russel Square location as it was close to the Tube(2 different lines). My other complaint is that in the rooms you can hear everything! So people talking in the hallway and any noise that they make so if you’re a light sleeper, you will hear everything.

We arrived much earlier than usual planned. Hours before check in time. After a short time in the lobby the staff were able to get these weary Americans into our room early.
