fantastic stay!!

central location tube access helpful kitchenette working microwave
i had a wedding anniversary trip. the location was superb, literally a short walk to the theatre and covent garden!!! bus and tube access to the city was simple. the kitchenette included a fridge and microwave, so that was helpful.
The sofas in the foyer looked a bit worn. They had feathers coming out of them.

underwhelming stay overall

old carpet poor maintenance
the location was convenient for seeing local attractions.
I was really let down by the state of the room i got. It felt quite run-down. the carpet seemed old and unclean, and there were clear signs of poor maintenance around the bathroom. it really affected the overall experience i had at this hotel.
