The hotel was nice. What made it memorable was the staff. Specifically, Tanvi, Janice, Lanita and Dhanvi. The entire front desk staff went out of their way to make sure we were cared for and welcomed- every day. We stayed in this hotel for a week, and everyone we encountered was helpful, kind, knowledgable and pleasant. 5 Star Staff!! Thank you for your gracious hospitality!!

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was clean and comfortable although had a slightly musty smell and was very cold until we worked out the heating. Amenities in the room were reasonable for their age. Staff were friendly and snacks being available in reception (drinks, crisps & fruit) was much appreciated.

Rooms were very small, if traveling with big bags they’re very uncomfortable but very clean. The staff were great and very accommodating. Hotel is very close to the metro/Underground and shopping area and restaurants.

Breakfast tea options could be improved presentation wise in a nice wooden box. Also would be good to clean tables quicker to provide more options where to seat during breakfast.

Poor heating in the room,, could not walk around the bed. Bedsheets were crisp and decent quality. Room carpet tired and needs replacing. Bathroom body wash dispenser did not work effectively. Reception staff polite and efficient. Overall this is a 2.5 star hotel
