The staff were all very friendly and polite. The location is very good - right opposite where I was working and close to the Underground. Only had toast and cereal for breakfast so can't comment on the cooked food. The breakfast staff were very friendly and pleasant.

The room has not been decorated for decades. The shower is tiny and the fixtures and fittings in the bathroom and bedroom are from a bygone era. The toilet didn't flush efficiently and the TV reception was too poor to watch. (In fairness I didn't report this until departure so they didn't have a chance to put it right during my 2-night stay.) You can hear every footstep taken in the room above. It was close to 20 degrees when I stayed which made the room uncomfortable. It would be unbearable in warmer conditions. (The window does open but the trade off is the road noise.) The bed was very small for a double with one side next to the wall. I was on my own but with 2 it would be a squeeze.

Chosen because of location - to do a family visit. And it suited us fine. But there was only two of us - elderly gentlemen - and so it was pricey per person compared to if we had been a whole family. But it was all on one floor which was what we needed.

There was little to dislike. But it was a bit spartan - obviously furnished to give minimum maintenance. What would have been useful would have been some written instructions about how things worked - e,g. the TV. This did not work - picture constantly breaking up - seemed to be very poor signal. The owner came (when we were out) and said he'd fixed it - but it was little better. Fortunately we didn't really need the TV so much. We brought our own entertainment - a chess set and I guess a few games would not go amiss to enhance the place. The shower over the bath was awkward for older types like us and a normal walk-in shower would have been better. There was a request to switch off the heating on leaving but no instructions about how to do this. So - it was OK but could easily be improved.

The property was large with enough room for everyone. The living room is small and would not accommodate 10 people.

The property was a bit shabby. The garden was overgrown and there were broken fence panels and rubbish. There was no garden furniture part from a broken washing machine.

Location was really great with good access to theatres, restaurants and public transport.

I didn't get what I paid for. The entry level room was described as double room (no window) at a specific price. I paid additional for the room described as double room showing a picture that included a window. I was given a room without a window and with it being small I felt a bit claustrophobic.

The dorm I stayed (11) in had a window facing into the internal smoking area, the smell of smoke filled the dorm at several times during the evening. Additionally, these smokers seemed to congregate around the dorm window, having really loud conversations after midnight, keeping me awake.
