impressed stay

helpful staffphone appclean 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 roomcomfortable bedunderground stationbus 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.
