The room was cosy, clean. Yes small but it was fine. The lack of space to hang clothes was a pain but we lived out our suitcases. The staff were very nice, friendly and helpful. Looked after our luggage and didn’t over charge us as we had more than 3 "bags". They allowed us to hang around My only issue was breakfast. As we booked through hotel.com we needed to pay £13 each. So that was £26. It really isn’t worth it. Pastries, cereals, fruit, hot pastries (wasn't any left when we came in) teas, coffee ect. Overall would stay again just wouldn't pay for breakfast.

Stayed with my daughter for a couple of days trip to London. The hotel is a really good standard, new, clean and staff super friendly. The room was super clean and the bed was comfortable. I also found it to be relatively quite eventful though it's on the Cromwell road. Breakfast was continental only but that was okay. We would definitely stay again.

Incidentals that you get for free in normal hotels - like baggage storage, borrowing an umbrella and checking in when the room is ready - are charged at this hotel. I would rather pay a small amount more and get a hotel that offers essential services without surprise charges

Great staff. Great location. Friendly staff

Great rooms and service by the team. Staff are accommodating and friendly. Breakfast needs to be changed to something worth while eating. Nothing particularly continental about it. Also the breakfast area staff needs to be more (well i couldn’t find anyone. ) Room was great. Clean. Spacious and comfortable.

Perfect peaceful area to stay in away from too much tourism. Clean, comfortable, affordable, friendly staff. Loved the shower. My one bit to suggest is to add additional lamp to the rooms without a window. Even with all the provided lights on it was still a bit dark. Overall such a good place to stay and will stay at again. Thank you!

Great location. The rooms are uncomfortably small - micro small. Staff are generally quite uninterested and distant unfortunately. Breakfast was good value but over subscribed and crowded. Overall quality is good if you’re staying overnight and need a place to crash. But for longer stays the lack of space and zero in room facilities such as storage, clothes hanging, drawers, a fridge, kettle etc etc is both very inconvenient as well as surprising.
