Its location in terms of proximity to the Victoria station, proximity to the Bus 24 route, thus enabling one to reach important places within the city The hotel rates were reasonable in terms of costs. The hotel staff at the reception was basically helpful in terms of answering my questions When I contacted the hotel (online) before my departure to London to ask some critical questions, I did not get any response. The room was not satisfactorily cleaned up, for example, the very first encounter with the toilet was not palatable. The toilet flashing facility not so efficient. The location of the room on the side of the main street made it a relatively noisy environment

Good location and price. The tap would never run cold, only warm or hot; the tv reception was very poor, but the bed was comfortable, the room clean and though it was small it had the things one needs. Because of the water problem I would try other hotels in the area first.

Great location in Victoria. Local shops are very convenient. The road is rather noisy and the rooms aren't very well double glazed. If you get a room at the back of the hotel you'll be ok, but otherwise it's not good if you're a light sleeper.

Good staff, pretty clean, good location and good value for money basic breakfast I have stayed at this hotel recently and left a review. Last time I booked a double room which was ok. This time I booked (for only a few pounds less) a single. If you value having room to breathe do not book a single - pay a little more and get a double. This was the smallest room I have ever stayed in......so small the trouser press dominated the room! Anyone over 5' 6" tall would have stuggled with the size of the bed. The very high ceiling combined with the tiny floor space made it feel like being in a tube!

There was a generous continental buffet breakfast. The reception staff were friendly and helpful. The showere required attention. The water kept going cold. Once I had worked out that the control kept slipping rather than there being no hot water, I was nearly done! Fix this, and it would be excellent value for money.

The location (10 minutes far from Victoria Station by foot) and the fair cleanliness - It was a bit noisy. You can hear the noise of the road outside and every noise coming from the rooms - Not perfectly cleaned - Not particularly friendly staff - Too expensive if considering the service which is given

Location Being locked out in the freezing cold at 3am because the receptionist was having a sleep - despite the hotel advertising a 24 hour reception! Also, when we went to collect out bag from the luggage room another receptionist who we'd never seen before just gave us the key to a room full of bags - we could've been anyone and walked away with any bag! Not impressed for £120 a night.

The size of the room, while quite small, was perfect for me as a solo traveler. All I really needed was somewhere to rest for the night before continuing my adventures in London, and it was the perfect hotel for that. The price was a little too high...I would expect for the price that I was paying to have breakfast included, and was a little disappointed to find out that it wasn't.

I stayed in comfortable double room on 3rd floor, bathroom was cleaned, they provide free WiFi. Location is great as hotel is 15 min walk from Victoria Station. Breakfast is rather poor and consists of cereal, pineapple, toast, one type of cheese and cold meat.

It was only a two minute walk from Pimlico station so very easy access to the rest of the city! It was also well located for restaurants, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The single room is a little small, but absolutely fine for a one night stay as part of a business trip. If you are planning on staying more than a couple of nights you might want more room.

The hotel is in a good location. My single room was small but comfortable. The bed was fine and the shower worked very well. The room was priced very competitively for the location and quality. Breakfast was good.

The hotel was quite in a good position, just round the corner from Pimlico tube station and less then 10 minutes to Victoria Station. The room was small but had everything I needed. They clean thoroughly and change the towels every day. The bed vas very confortable and the place was really quiet. I much adpreciated the Tea/coffe facilities in the room as breakfast is not included in the price. Most of all wifi was free also in the rooms.

Close to public transport. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. It was at the back of the hotel so there was no road noise. The staff were pleasant and helpful. The hotel is located to a variety of good cafe's and restaurants. The room did not have air conditioning. I was told by staff to open the window! This meant there was the potential for noise and bugs. The temperature of the shower went from cold to tepid - not a pleasant experience.

I really cannot think of anything that I really liked. The continental beakfast was passable. The room was one of the smallest that I have ever seen. There was no cold water in the bathhroom, but the staff did hand out jugs of cold water. The air conditioning system did not function at all, but a portable cooler helped a little, and fortunately the weather was cool. There was not public lounge, so once one was in the hotel, all one could do was lie on the bed.
