Pleasant efficient staff. Lovely modern clean room. One or two fixtures & fittings could be better. Good breakfast & excellent location. Would use again, only difficulty for me is when you have luggage dealing with four flights of stairs.

We had a fantastic stay here! The room was great, the staff was incredibly welcoming, and the location was perfect. Though it wasn't in our package, we opted for their breakfast some mornings, which was excellent and well worth the extra cost. The only thing to note is that there is no elevator. We knew this beforehand so it wasn't an issue for us, but it's worth mentioning for others. We would definitely stay here again!

The room was clean enough, however I found it hard to sleep with creaking stars and loose floorboards in the room above me. The WiFi is terrible so if you require connectivity to carry out work I would not consider here. Probably the worst I’ve come across in London so far. There is no bin provided in the room so you have to put waste into a carrier which in my case was not removed when the room was tidied, so there was a stale smell of food waste when I returned to the room that evening. On the plus side the staff are very friendly and helpful.

It was very clean, peaceful and the front desk reception team was receptive and accommodating. We also were able to store our luggage so that we could venture out and explore the touristy points of interest by train.

The hotel itself was refurbished from actual homes with several floors with squeeky floors, steep stairs and narrow walkways. The room allocated was decent although with a modern though small bathroom but for a person of my size it's sufficient, can't imagine if someone who is on the plus size of which might find the bathroom a tight squeeze. The hot water is definitely a wait, as it took nearly 5mins plus to get decent hot water in the shower. The breakfast was the only plus side as the baked goods and English breakfast spread was fresh and hot. Though space within the dinning area is tight, and the smell of food goes directly up to the rooms, not to mention the soundproofing is horrible, where you can hear the conversations, TV sounds, and young passionate couple next door. if you want to iron your shirts, bring your own portable one as you might need to iron a communal one right in front of other rooms.
