Location is brilliant. Hotel itself is lovely for the most part, bed is comfy. My only complaints is that the tea and coffee wasn’t replenished fully the second day even after requesting 3 times, the shower was lukewarm on the first night and some of the staff were really unfriendly and unhelpful. But overall it was a nice place to stay and reasonably priced for London.

Nice staff. Near M&S,Tesco, and Sainsbury grocery stores. Feels out of the way but it is near many tube stations. Some restaurants open near there until 11pm. 10 minute walk to Borough Market. Great deal and AC rooms. Better than staying near Charring Cross or Piccadilly. I would go back.
