EXCELLENT stay!

lovely rooms great restaurant short walk
The rooms provided a lovely experience and the restaurant was GREAT. The location is perfect. It's situated only a short walk from the subway. I really appreciated the helpful and polite staff. They let me check in early as my room was available. The location is great, with just a couple of minutes walking towards the nearest underground station.
The pillows were a bit flat. They were not very comfortable, and this affected my sleep. It is my major issue.

The service was good overall and staff members were responsive to requests. Communication with staff was smooth, because they were always eager to assist with directions. I found the team's proactive approach to guest needs especially helpful.

impressed stay

helpful staff phone app clean pool
i found the staff helpful and sweet. i appreciated the ability to use the phone app to order room service and book the swimming pool. the pool was clean and i noticed it was less busy during one session. i think adding a swimsuit dryer to the changing rooms would be beneficial.
the room temperature seemed low at 21 degrees, and the air conditioning required a setting of 30 to produce heat.

super central location, great choice

well-designed room comfortable bed underground station bus stop
the room was well designed. the beds were comfortable. the location is a short walk from the underground. the number 63 bus stopped just outside the hotel, it went to kingscross station, this was great. it was difficult to use the underground with a child in a buggy and cases.
the pillows were a bit flat for me, they were not very comfortable. my major issue was with the bathroom plumbing. a stench came from the bathroom, it was worse during the night.
