Acceptable Location, Notable Room Issues
acceptable locationchemical scentsdamaged furniture
The location proved acceptable for accessing various points of interest.
The room reeked of strong chemical scents. Bedding seemed unwashed. There were many stains on the coverlet. Damaged furniture detracted from the overall quality. The desk showed significant water damage.

The location near the tube station was certainly convenient. i found my room to be spotlessly clean. Everything i needed was readily available. a nice touch was the good choice of coffee pods for the nespresso machine and the complimentary water in the fridge.
I noticed a slight smell in the room. It seemed like too much air freshener had been used.

While i did not dine extensively at the hotel, i saw they provide breakfast options, and there is also a pub on the premises. the atmosphere in the pub seemed cute and lively. I didn't have the opportunity to try the food, however.
