Overnight stay for a work trip. Booked single room which was decent size and clean, comfortable bed, complimentary drinks/biscuits, good shower, air con and convenient distance to bus stops for my trip. Staff was polite and check in and our process seemless. No fridge in room but staff offered to place things in fridge with tags. Awkward to close the bathroom door due to space. Room 113. Would stay here again.

I was coming in late and just needed to sleep… And was pleasantly surprised what a gorgeous lovely place it was for so little money. I'm keeping this in my notebook for all future stays.

A ridiculously small shower in my room. I appreciate that the room was cheap, but the space seemed to have been saved in the bathroom rather than in the bedroom, where I expected it (even though the tv was massive for the bedroom).

Pleasant and attractive hotel conveniently located in a quiet street near the V&A, the Natural History Museum and the South Ken tube station. Staff courteous and operation seemed efficient. Negatives for some might be small bathrooms in some rooms (with ultra modern but not super functional fixtures) and some thin walls. Very clean and with kettle, water, biscuits, good hair dryer etc.
