One word unbelievable!
Pros:

I’m a builder I need a bed for the night and privacy for the price paid this hotel is a bargain….. it is the most unique premises I’ve ever stayed in. I’m giving it a massive good review because the staff the guy on reception is brilliant… he pointed out to me that he was aware of the premises failing but such a beautiful old unique building has to be taken for what it is …… the facilities worked for me and I haven’t stopped laughing since I’ve stayed there I walked out the next morning smiling that’s all I can say …. It’s unbelievable uniqueness has actually made me a return customer

Cons:

The madness of the place… absolutely unbelievable uniqueness and the reception is a gem

Peaceful and effective short stay!
Pros:

It was indeed a peaceful stay. Good price for two nights. The location was convenient, as I walked to the destination. Restaurants, supermarkets and all the other amenities are around the hotel. Staff (Amal and Varun) are helpful and understanding. Great location in central London.

Cons:

I have a suggestion for its improvement. The washrooms are clean, but they need to be a bit more modernized and require some minor adjustments.
