The access was a bit of a pain, having to check-in at another hotel around the corner, before walking to where I was staying. No breakfast facilities in the building I stayed in. A very tight squeeze in the small bathroom.

Convenient location to Victoria Station. Clean, tidy, quiet area. Has what you need for a brief overnight stay. Was in “basement room” - far more spacious than I was expecting. Quiet area. Short walk to station. No issues. Check in is via their sister hotel around the corner.

This is one of the worst places I’ve ever stayed in my life. This is not a hotel, this is a very tiny room and a very unkept old house. At the time of arrival I asked for room service, that room service never came. The address on the website is not the same as the one for the reception which is a few blocks away. The bedding was not clean, and there are no elevator so you have to carry your luggage all the way up multiple flights of stairs. This is not a place I would ever stay in and I had to literally check out early because they did not change the bedding or provide extra towels after a long day.

Our room was in the basement. Very warm and humid, could have done with a dehumidifier. Also, asked for clean towels and garbage removal so they gave us clean towels but no one ever showed up to remove the dirty towels or change the garbage. We were there for four nights and no one checked on anything. The room was clean upon our arrival though so that was good. My sister had a room next door and they had much better air circulation and a larger window.
