Great location for work

Another great stay. But I would say that you need to include 4 pillows per room. 2 is not enough and they are thin.

Please don’t be duped into paying an upgrade for a window room. I upgraded when originally booking and we had no view at all. Not worth the extra money. Photos on website look NOTHING like the room I paid for. If you prefer a harder bed then these beds won’t help you. Very soft mattress. Rooms not very clean. Wouldn’t stay here again. Staff very nice though.

The property is easy to locate. Less than 10 minutes walk from the train station. Close to restaurants, grocery stores and coffee shops. Staffs are accommodating and easy to deal with. Will definitely recommend this place. If I’m in the area will stay at this place again.

This hotel was great for the price. Clean with comfortable beds. There is a big Tesco close by and an underground station within 10 mins walk. I have been to London before and stayed more centrally and did not find this inconvenient. Did not find the hotel noisy at night, and it felt secure.
