Treat it as a 3* hotel next to a train station and you won't be disappointed.
Pros:

Location was great. That's about it.

Cons:

Shocking that this can be considered 5* as a hotel. Smelly, old dated decor. Gym was grim. Room had super loud AC. Service quality poor.

It was in a great location but the breakfast was poor, which would put me off coming back
Pros:

The location

Cons:

That the toilet and shower facilities were separate. The breakfast was very poor - no cereal, no toast (well none offered). I asked for scrambled eggs and they came with some Dort of garlic dressing on top. Not a thing I would expect at breakfast. So all I ended having was some fruit (selection again poor) and tea

Hotel with lots of character
Pros:

One of my favourite properties in London. Great food and drink options with the property, attracts a really fun, cool crowd. Rooms all have a lot of character (but still on the right side of tasteful!)

Cons:

Staff can often be quite unhelpful / inexperienced. I've stayed at the property a few times now and I get the feeling I know the property better than some of the staff themselves (e.g. staff were unable to answer basic queries about a room's features).

Comfortable, great staff but expensive
Pros:

Big room, clean, comfortable, not having a window had no negative impact. Great location

Cons:

Pricey. And added 5% service charge, which no one told me about until I asked what the extra charge was for. This is not a good practice.

Pros:

La propreté des chambres est toujours au top, l'emplacement est ideal, le restaurant est très bon.

Cons:

Nous avons séjourné plusieurs fois dans l'hotel et nous constatons que le prix des chambres augmentent régulièrement alors que les prestations sont en baissent. Malgré notre demande, les chambres etaient sur des étages différents et il n'est pas possible de rejoindre une chambres sur un autre étage. De plus, nous avons rencontré beaucoup de problèmes avec les sanitaires. Le point le plus problématique reste le personnel de l'hotel qui manque vraiment de savoir faire et de savoir être. L' attente lors du déjeuner, lors d'un apéritif et d'un souper (restaurant de rez-de-chaussée) etait catastrophique; le personnel ne nous calculait pas et nous passions notre temps a essayer d'attirer leur attention pour etre servi.
