Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Free breakfast was horrible. The scrambled egg, sausage, bacon, hush brown
Great room, comfortable bed and lovely shower. The staff were friendly, welcoming and very helpful. Breakfast was great, good selection for everyone to enjoy.
Great location in a nice part of town. Plenty of shops to buy food, supplies etc... Excellent coffee shop across the street. Birds Hill. Micro-roasting what is possible the best coffee in all of London. 10 minute walk to Borough Market and the London Bridge tube line. Tate Modern is a few minutes away which makes it easy to go early before the crowds and its free! Staff is friendly, communal fridge is offered that staff control, room is efficient but comfy and climate control is good. They could use some art on the walls of the rooms. Breakfast is sufficient but the coffee across the street it so much better. Lobby is cute.
Very good breakfast.
Room does not have a safe.
No place to organize clothings except a few cloth hangers.
No place to put your changed clothing in the bathroom.
Faucet is awkward.
The fire alarm went off at all hours of the night. The staff said it was due to hot showers in the bath and the door was left open so it triggered the alarm. Very disappointed.
