Excellent Stay, Great Location!

clean roomfriendly staffgreat locationtube station
I found the room very clean, with excellent amenities. The staff were both friendly and efficient, which I certainly appreciated. A variety of restaurants are very close. I especially liked that it's near Victoria station and a tube station. I will definitely choose it again.
The room I booked was a bit limited on space. I had to place my suitcase on the only small table. This didn't leave much room to sit down, but it was manageable.

A Reasonable Stay

great locationconvenient room sizehelpful front desk stafflimited spacesmall tableinconvenient room
The hotel has a great location. It was easy to find. My room size was convenient. Patty at the front desk was helpful.
Space was limited in my room. I had to put my suitcase on the only small table. The bag went on the chair. This left no space to sit down or use the table to write.

Simple and Convenient Stay

The hotel is an easy walk from the tube station. The room felt warm. A nice, powerful shower made mornings much easier. Staff members were generally friendly (I appreciated that).
The absence of a lift made carrying luggage up the stairs slightly inconvenient.
