Decent Location, Some Disappointments

small bathroom loose tiles

The room size was much smaller than I anticipated. The bathroom was particularly cramped and had some loose tiles. getting hot water in the morning for shaving was difficult. Cold water was hard to get in the evenings.

small room shower temperature

My room, a so called 'double room', could barely fit a chihuahua, let alone two humans. i suspect the description was written by someone with a very generous sense of space. and lets not forget the shower. the temperature control was a joke. I alternated between lukewarm dribbles and scalding jets faster than you can say 'plumbing malfunction'.

the breakfast was okay with lots of options.

The room seemed a little tired and could use some sprucing up. I also noticed some issues with the lock. It felt unsafe. the lock breaking while someone is inside is quite unacceptable.

good location euston station easy access small room odd layout dated design

the location is good from euston station and underground stations. nearby restaurants and supermarkets are available. access to the west end shows is easy.

the room was very small and dated. the layout is odd. entering the first door, you see the bathroom door on the left and the bedroom door on the right.
