The hotel is a conversion of two townhouses and every room is different. This was my experience staying in room 30. The room was approximately twice the size of the small single bed it contained. A door opened onto a small, boxed-in exterior patio. Also attached was a shower and toilet cubicle (not all the rooms are ensuite). The one small window was painted over and had not been opened for years. This meant the only way of getting ventilation was to leave the patio door open which some guests might not feel safe. The radiator came on automatically in the morning and made the room excessively hot - it could not be turned off. The reading light over the bed and the shaver point did not work which I reported the next morning. By evening the defective bulb in the light had been replaced but the shaver point was still inoperable. The very helpful desk clerk offered their only three pin adapter but this had loose connections and did not work. He managed to get a working adapter from a sister hotel so I could shave. At this point the door lock to the room which was operated by a key card ceased to work, but they offered me a manual key so I could continue to get into the room. The carpet was badly frayed in one area. There were tea-making facilities and the continental breakfast was acceptable for this class of hotel. I paid approximately ÂŁ130/night for this room. There are many cheap hotels in this area of London and it is unlikely I will return to this one.
Great location. Very clean and comfortable hotel. Very comfortable large bed. Large modern flat screen TV. Good quality tea bags. Excellent reception staff always willing to help.
