Asked for 3 single beds on booking details via Expedia, but unfortunately wasn’t available up on arrival. Info not showing on hotel system? Had to settle for a double & single, receptionist did try to accommodate. The room & bathroom was clean with hot fast flowing water. Not the biggest of bathrooms. Just a few little picky things: The kettle was too large to fit in the sink / under the tap for water. The room could have had a couple of pictures of the local area / London etc. Maybe a splash of colour on one wall instead of just white with grey carpet. I would recommend & use again for good value for money.

Adequate

Adequate for a one night stay away on a business trip. Room had iron, hairdryer, TV and tea/ coffee making facilities. However room was very small. No breakfast available. Reception not permanently staffed and doorbell must be rung to gain access on arrival. I was also woken up in the early hours by a loud and lengthy conversation - presumably someone checking in late. Might stay again at a push but not if an alternative was available.

Lovely host. Clean sheets and fresh towels each day but the room is tired and could do with a deep clean. Bathroom also needs some attention. No food options on site, although there is a tescos in walking distance. Parking is limited. That said, not a bad price given location, will probably be back.
