I don't know if they have only one housekeeper but my room was not ready for my check-in and I had to wait until almost 4:30 (check-in was supposed to be 3). At first, I figured they were busy but that clearly was not the case after hanging around waiting. This was on a Monday by the way. Also, they really need to update their phones in the room, the cords don't even reach a manageable distance, literally about 12-16 inches. My trash bin in the bathroom also did not open. The lid was broken and you can seriously just replace one for $5-10. I understand vintage but everything in my room was not very well-maintained.

The property was nice and staff was friendly. Room was small with no place to put away clothes or shoes. Hair dryer was bolted to the drawer inside the desk in the room which is an odd place to have a dryer. There was barely any water pressure coming out of the shower.

Great stay

The staff were very welcoming and helpful and we got a complimentary upgrade. They also gave us a discount on the dinning room for anything. The room was spacious, clean and very comfortable Location was perfect for the natural history museum or V&A.

Disliked: Cleanliness
We stayed here for the last 2 nights of a 2 week trip to England and Scotland. Our room was incredibly small. So small in fact that only one of us could walk on the floor at a time The other person had to be on the bed. We are not big people. The shower was so small you could not physically bend down to pick things up in the shower from the floor. Every time we lifted our arms to wash our hair we would elbow the soap dish. There was no type of air flow in the room. The window opened but the outside breeze did not blow into the room.

Top choice

I stay here when I travel to London for work. It's much better than the other chains. It's full of character and tends to be quieter. Staff are friendly. Rooms are clean and comfortable, if a little on the small side. It's my go-to hotel and I've not been let down yet.
