    The facilities are minimal. Very disappointed that the room doesn't even have a fridge. The water pressure is a nighmare. We stayed on the fourth floor and the staff told us there's nothing that they can do about it.

    Location is really good. Breakfast is decent. Staff are quite helpful as well.

    The water pressure was shocking just a trickle in both the shower and the sink in both rooms as well as the fire alarm going off.

    My room had problem with leaking shower and the AC was very loud, I had to change the room because it was impossible to sleep there because of that and thw receptionist offered me different rooms and I could choose the one which fits my needs. I also got free breakfast vouchers as an apology from the manager. The hotel needs some maintanance ASAP :) .

    Very helpful and kind staff, perfect location for exploring London. Cleaning services were very good

    The mattress i slept on had collapsed & had a big hole on the right hand side. The shower was pointless- 2 streams of boiling water- no pressure

    Very convenient, clean, nice reception staff

    Decor is tired and could do with sprucing up.

    Staff were friendly and helpful. The room was small but adequate and the beds comfortable. The location was near shops and restaurants and close to the tube. Good value considering where it is.
