The breakfast box had few options. It does need variety. This includes options for those with dietary restrictions. I could pay extra for a full buffet breakfast at a nearby hotel.

clean roomsmall roomlack of privacy
The room was clean and of good size.
I encountered a significant issue with the room. I was initially booked into a smaller room than I had reserved. The bedroom had a partition, not a separate space, thus it lacked privacy. This was unsuitable since I was traveling with multiple adults.

The location proved convenient. The tower bridge was just a short walk away. the room featured an elevator, it eased moving luggage. aroona and roxana offered a warm welcome. They stored our bags before check-in.
The breakfast came pre-packed in a basic box. It didn't really cater to different dietary needs.
