Looks can be deceiving.

Upon on arrival we got asked for payment. Payment was made 6 weeks beforehand. Another staff member came and asked for proof of payment which we gave. Then we got an email again asking for proof of purchase. So not a good start. Rooms are small and pokey with no privacy in the bathroom as no door (door only to toilet and shower) customer service was only good on checkout as receptionist was lovely but all the rest just didnt seem to care for example bags were stored in room with no bag tags meaning anyone could have taken our bags.

Rooms are small but clean. It was 40 degrees when we stayed there and the air conditioner was struggling from the minute we got there. One staff member was very unfriendly but the other 2 people we dealt with were lovely people.

We absolutely loved this hotel. It’s so quirky and modern. You can’t beat this place for value for money and such a convenient location. The room was small but no issue at all as it was so clean and modern. Would definitely recommend it for anyone looking for a budget option right in the heart of Southbank.

Small room but clean and good for a quick stay. Location was great - just cross from Crown/Southbank. Check out staff were unwelcoming in my opinion, were too busy to even greet you or ask how the stay was upon check out.
