It was a very hot night in London and there is no air condition, unfortunately there are restraints on the windows so it is impossible to get any real air in the room when it is hot
Location fabulouse 5 minutes walk from tube station and the best thing was the underground car park with ligts straight into the hotel. left luggage also near the parking. Great breakfast.
It was over 33 degrees outside and the top floors were so hot, at one point our room was reading at 40 and there weren’t enough fans for every room. The first fan we had didn’t work and we requested another. Housekeeping took it the next day.
Very well located next to a grocery store, shops, and restaurants. A souvenir stand near by offers items at half the cost of Piccadilly. Russell Station is 2min walk away.
Half the hotel is renovated half us not. Reno side was nice. No AC!!! Made 33above unbearable. Otherwise an affordable well positioned location.

No air conditioning and rooms were sweltering on a 35 degree day. Apart from that rooms were ok. corridors were dated and not renovated
The bedrooms lacked air conditioning and the windows did not open much more than a crack which made it unbearable as the outside temps were mid 20's. We were only staying one night otherwise we would have demanded a fan. Other than that the rooms were basic and functional.
The staff were really nice, easy check-in/check-out, the hotel is in a very nice area where I don’t have to worry about anything. There was no air conditioning whatsoever, but I guess that’s a UK thing that I’m not used to.
