Ok for 1 night, close to Victoria
We were top floor of a walk-up in an old building, plenty of wear and tear but the room was clean. Very small room. Great location. It would suit someone with light luggage and a no-frills expectation.

The heating system didn’t work - either scalding hot or freezing. The sheets were left crumbled when the beds were made. The breakfast was very basic. Friendly staff, good location

Had a lovely stay, staff were all pleasant and polite. Continental breakfast being included was a bonus and room was adequate for our short stay. We would stay here again.

Great location but not one we’d book again
The reception staff were very friendly, but the hotel is extremely basic for the cost. Our room smelt very peculiar and when we went to breakfast in the morning, no one came to meet us so we just left. I am sure if we had found the staff they would have served us with a smile, but it didn’t feel that comfortable. Great if you want a cheap stay in a great location, but not one we would stay at again.

Lovely clean room with everything you need although no lift and lots of stairs to climb to get to it and very small tv.
Lovely little breakfast room with cereal, toast, yogurts, juice, tea and coffee.
In a good position to access lots of places to visit on foot and the tube is nearby.
would defiantly stay here again.
