Great place, grear location, clean rooms

Nice location next to underground. Room was nice and bed was comfy

Went during a bit of a heatwave, it had ac but didnt work too well. They give u little amenities including soap so if you open one to wash ur hands the next morning its replaced by a new one. Works great for shampoos etc but would prefer a permanent soap.

Great size room which was well furnished. Comfortable beds. Easily accessible from the nearby tube station. Will stay here again next time I'm in the city.

Struttura pulita e stanze grandi, con delle possibili migliorie

8.0

Struttura pulita e camera spaziosa anche di più degli standard di Londra. Ad un passo dalla metro e da locali, bar e ristoranti. Ci siamo trovati nel complesso bene e la consigliamo.

Siamo stati al piano terra, quando siamo entrati c’era però l’aria condizionata a 21 e ci si ghiacciava. Abbiamo provato a sistemarla dal termostato della stanza, ma non funzionava. Quindi l’abbiamo comunicato alla reception e ce l’hanno spento. Siamo stati bene senza aria condizionata. Ma se fosse stato necessario regolarla non ho idea. Il Wi-Fi non si collegava in modo continuo, linea poco stabile. Aggiungerei uno scopino in bagno per il wc.
