The hotel is small and well run - it is also rather spartan, but was perfect for us: great location, easy access to the tube, a pub within a block was great for breakfast and it and another were good spots for an afternoon/evening pub meal. Staff was quite helpful locating things in the area, as well. It is not a luxury spot, but is great for a place to sleep while exploring London - we'd go back.
