Great location, nice room, really kind and helpful staff. My only suggestion would be mini fridges in the rooms, without those you kind of have to get takeout for every meal. Aside from that, perfect

We were upgraded. The room had a superking bed and was very comfortable. I did not find the pillows very comfy - they were very hard. Great water pressure and air con.
Extremely helpful staff. Would definitely stay again. Lovely cocktail bar nearby called Twice Shy.

The staff were very helpful. I deliberately avoided booking a windowless room but I need up in a basement room which was marginally better. Unfortunately, the hotel had an issue with hot water in the morning, which resulted in me having to delay leaving the hotel until it was sorted.

Great staff and perfect amenities for a stay close to Central London. Access to the Piccadilly and District lines from just a street over was immensely helpful to get to wherever is needed. Highly recommend, and would stay again!

Air con was good and a big relief! Room was TINY but well served by a v comfy bed, good quality bathroom and toiletries. No kettle or fridge or tv, or space to put anything, it’s literally just a place to sleep, but the price reflected that and it was a very very handy location.
Staff were great. I slept well, it was quiet.
Good quality but also the absolute bare minimum.
