Great little boutique hotel in central London, with character and very good value for money. The bed was very comfortable and the complimentary full English breakfast nice and filling (they had different options available as well). The place had a friendly vibe. I would very happily return there. The only slightly negative point is the sound proofing wasn't very good, but that's normal in older buildings.
