The hotel is ideally located close to Liverpool Street Station, making it convenient for travel. The rooms are simple with a comfortable double bed, but lack air conditioning. The service was a mix of abrupt written communication for payment but friendly staff otherwise. The location is excellent, surrounded by nice pubs and restaurants, although bag storage is not secure. The dining options include small kitchens for budget-conscious travelers. Overall, a reasonable choice with some drawbacks.

I was pleasantly surprised by the small but clean room that had everything I needed for my 5-day stay. The easy check-in procedure was a refreshing change, but the layout with the bed, sofa bed, dining table, and kitchenette all in one room was unexpected. The hotel offers good value for money with basic yet functional accommodations.

My stay at the hotel was a pleasant experience overall. The rooms needed some tender loving care but were spacious and modern, with a certain part of the room slightly off. However, the room was very clean and well-equipped with a kettle, tea and coffee, hairdryer, iron, ironing board, and an abundance of shower and hair lotions.

The hotel is very central, just a few minutes from London Bridge and the Tower of London. The rooms, although small and shabby with broken tiles and mold in the bathroom, served as a suitable base for our busy weekend exploring London and the O2 arena. The service was friendly and helpful, but lacking air conditioning and double glazing. The location is prime for a short stay in London, but the reception service needs improvement. The dining experience was okay, with small kitchens available for budget-conscious travelers. Overall, the facilities offered were adequate for the value and location.

The hotel rooms were very clean and well presented, although it was so loud all night long due to facing a busy street. The hotel felt more like a B&B than a hotel. The service was very helpful, and Frank was especially great in assisting us after a long day of exploring. However, despite being friendly, the staff didn't seem very capable of resolving customer complaints effectively. The location was close to everything we needed but had some issues with reception availability at checkout. The dining experience was okay with small kitchens available. Overall, a mixed experience with some positives and negatives.

The hotel is basically a halfway house rather than a proper hotel, with poor service and irregular cleaning. The rooms are spacious and offer everything needed for a short stay, but lacked heating during my visit. The location is convenient, close to public transport and various dining options. The staff seemed disinterested, and the air conditioning was extremely noisy, making it hard to relax. On the positive side, the hotel is near underground stations and within walking distance of many attractions.

Although the room had some issues like dirty walls and broken tiles, despite overlooking the main road, it was clean and had all the necessary amenities. The service from the owner, receptionist, and booking team was exceptionally kind and helpful. The location is perfect for exploring London despite being in a dodgy part of the road. The dining experience was acceptable, especially with small kitchens available for budget breakfasts. Overall, a great value for a group stay and fantastic location.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed bag. While the rooms were bigger than expected and nicely furnished, the pictures were quite misleading, and there was only one small mirror in the toilet. The smart layout made it feel spacious, but some areas looked a bit tired. Overall, a great size and price for the location.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were very well-equipped and clean, but the smell was quite off-putting, especially since they were only serviced every 3rd day during our stay. However, the hotel staff, especially Mr Adam and Smiley Sue, were incredibly friendly and made our stay pleasant. The location was convenient with easy access to transportation and vibrant surroundings, though the dining options were just okay.
