Overall decent hotel in decent location. You get what you pay for. Rooms are very dated. Could do with a refresh as everything is worn out, extra lock on bedroom doors didn’t work and there were no sockets next to the bed.

Hotel lobby/restaurant was lovely and staff was very attentive. Actual room was very smaĺl, and worn BUT quiet and water pressure in shower was perfect and it was very clean. Two elevators did not work (and one morning all actually were having issues and we had to take service elevator) the entire stay which made mornings during check out time impossible to get on if staying on a lower floor. Lovely area and very easy to get to tube or buses. Would stay again depending on price point.
