Other than the curtains being broken resulting in no privacy and me needing to tie the broken curtain to the bed post, the hotel was easy to find, staff was polite, wifi was strong and consistent, room was spacious (rare for LDN) and clean, and the portable AC was mint. Overall great stay and I'd go again.

Weekend in Kensington

We really enjoyed the hotel. I agree with some reviewers comments about worn carpets and light bulbs out in the hotel. However, our room was large and comfortable, the location near the Gloucester St tube station was great, and the neighborhood was quiet. The hotel was clean and had the amenities we needed.
