Everything was as stated in the brochure and met all our expectations. Contrary to some other reviews we found the staff friendly,efficient and professional.We also found - again contrary to another review - that we did not need to provide our own toilet paper. For anybody who is coming to London for sight seeing,this is a perfect base in terms of proximity/access to London's more notable sites.With Borough Tube Station right beside you,getting anywhere via the underground could not be handier. We will be back!!!! With only a central lift position, you may have to walk a fair distance to your room. Also check out @ 10.30.am is really too early

Staff were rude and were willing to let a 27 year old woman leave with nowehere else to go, despite the room already being paid for, because she didnt have the right type of card to pay an extra £200.

The location was quite and close to the underground, the rooms are large and comfortable. The only problems we have was that we wanted to use the microwave oven but there wasn't any instruction book so that we couldn't use it. Even if in the booklet of the hotel they assert that the instruction were under the kichen sink!!! Another problem is that not many restaurant are placed close to the hotel.

The room was much better than I anticipated. It had a full kitchen with washing machine, oven, microwave and dishwasher. Near to the tube and easy to self cater with Tesco next door. Would definitely recommend and stay again. Clean and comfortable, relatively new and everything was in working order. Inconvenient line of the underground. It is a lot of changes to the center

The room was much better than I anticipated. It had a full kitchen with washing machine, oven, microwave and dishwasher. The lounge / dining area was NOT small and the kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom were large. The place was spotlessly clean and staff were friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend and stay again.

Fairly large apartment, convenient for Borough tube (1) Was told my room was available on the phone but they didn't mention the £20 'early check-in charge' until I got to reception. Completely unprofessional. (2) Apartments are advertised for their sky high views across the city. Our room was on the 2nd floor and all we could see out the window was the back of a nearby building (3) No Aircon!!! (4) Nobody cleans your room or supplies fresh sheets/towels. In short, spend your money on a proper hotel!

The fact it was so close to Borough and London Bridge Tube Stations meant getting around was really easy. The Tesco below the apartments also made it really convienient to stock up on essentials. The check in time was very rigid for 3pm. I had been waiting in the lobby since 1:30pm with no flexibility on check in. The waiting area got busier and busier and by 3pm was full and check in took forever. I didnt see the problem starting to check people in from around 14:30/14:45 if apartments are ready to save this 15:00 rush.

Good place to stay, apartments very clean and loads of space. Had all the things you need, the dvd player remote did not work and could do with a better tv. I do highly recommend this place if you had kids, underground only a few minutes away, tesco next door and bus opposite the subway. Easy to get around london, though sometimes to had to make a few changes to get to your destination.

We loved the location first of all, then we were all totally overawed by the self catering accommodation, it had absolutely everything we could possibly want. We would choose it over a hotel for another trip to London. Fantastic. Thank you.

Location good as I needed to be close to local hospital where my husband was having major surgery. Apartment was like a home from home where I could relax, make whatever food I wanted to suit me, (Tesco express just outside building was so convenient) and to have the washing machine was a real bonus as I had to stay longer than anticipated. The apartment was very clean and fittings and furniture of a good quality, bathroom modern with good shower and bath. It felt good to have my own space at that time rather than a hotel room. I would definitely stay again. The weather was very hot during part of my stay, 29c and as there was no air conditioning and windows only opened a set amount the apartment did get quite hot at times.
