great location, spacious room
friendly staffquiet roomcomfortable bedfaulty sink
The staff efficiently checked me in. They even sent a message confirming my request for a quiet room. i used the lift located at the back of the pub, avoiding any stairs. the room included fluffy, clean towels and strong nespresso coffee. the air conditioning worked well. the bed was comfortable. the room was clean.
The absence of a fridge in room 4 was a drawback. the bathroom sink drained poorly. Water sprayed out when i tried to drain it. this made using the sink inconvenient.

the location is very convenient with the tube station just a short walk away. my room was quiet despite the building also being a live music venue. housekeeping ensured my room was cleaned quickly after my long journey. the hotel boasts a very cool and stylish aesthetic.
the reception area was sometimes unattended making it difficult to ask questions.
