Overall fantastic hotel for the price we paid will definitely be coming back the Ultra 4K HD TV was fantastic. Our room was nice and we got a eccentric view of London. Great ventilation and plenty of plug sockets accustomed with beautiful wall art. The refreshments were lovely and provided for free.

No WiFi!
Toilets and bathroom is not inside in the room! Central location however the room has a very old disain but it was clean, friendly staff members, no parking, shared toilets and bathroom. Location is the key factor here. Price is friendly on Christmas in London Central room for 30/day (price in 2021), no hidden fee.

If I could give this place no stars I would, when you go in the staff are very rude and always seem too busy to talk with you. When we got to our room (that had a key and lock that had to be handed in everytime you left the hotel, not a swipe) it was dirty it looked like it had never been cleaned, there was dust everywhere, marks all over the mirror, the sink had stains in it. To top it off for 2 of us we got one big towel and a hand towel. In further inspection there were things that didn't belong to me under the bed, only one electricity plug hole and no bin in the room. In saying all this the
