I needed a hotel room for a single night stay in central London. I was traveling alone and wanted a hotel at mid price range ie clean and tidy with a window. The room was GBP 150.00 for the night without breakfast. Overall I was pleased with the room and it was clean and tidy. The decor was also good and modern. I would recommend this hotel based on my experience.
