Got a free upgrade for signing up as a member at the desk. The room came with a small kitchen, very comfortable bed, and super clean bathroom. Everything is quite perfect and I would rebook in the future. Convenient to the tube station as well.

Nice but needs attention to cleaning

Room not ready when checking in after 3pm. Room as described but not cleaned properly, hairs all over the shower and a large dust ball by the sofa.

Liked the upgrade, was upgraded to a small suite room with a kitchen. There is also a small but well stocked gym and free tea and coffee down in the basement. The bed was comfortable and the room was very clean. It is a short walk from Farringdon station. The staff were very friendly and helped me when I realised I forgot my charger and let me leave it to charge at the reception desk. The only drawback of this hotel is that the air conditioning was slightly noisy (sounded like a quiet hairdryer) so had some trouble getting to sleep. Overall would definitely recommend to others.
