I do not recommend staying here.

I’m not usually this negative but I booked this over 6 months in advance and it was a major disappointment. We had prepaid the room and ended up leaving a day early because of the conditions. The kids working there were ok when someone was there. It was not eco friendly—hallway like a sauna wasting energy. Bathroom—lots of mold that could have been clean. Tv didn’t work. Safe didn’t work and the girl at desk just shrugged. I could go on about the little things. Not clearly represented on website that there was no one there after 9 on our checkin day, good thing we got there at 8:30, nothing available in lobby. Basically this was a total price gouge probably because of F1—we paid less per night in London for a much better hotel so left early rather than endure another uncomfortable night. Not a good experience.
