La posizione eccellente, la tranquillità della zona, ben servita! La hall e lo staff perfetti e i letti comodissimi!

La carenza di luce nella camera e in bagno e la presenza della moquette

Single rooms like a closet and NEVER have a nice view

Location

One of the smallest single rooms I have ever had. Said it was a classic single- not sure what was classic. If you’re on the heavier side you’ll have problems getting in and out of the shower & loo. No shelf in the bathroom had to put things on the floor

Guest review

8.0

Very comfortable, quiet room in a great location. Very friendly and responsive staff who clearly worked hard to meet the needs of their guests (hotel and restaurant). Steps away from the underground, variety of food, a market, and Boots all in the neighborhood so convenience.

I made the mistake of visiting during a major heatwave so, try as it might, the room AC could not keep up with it. Beyond the hotel's control, but it would be worth upgrading the system. I was also surprised that there wasn't a business center (thankfully, my smartphone got me through the week).
