Die Lage war super. Ruhig gelegen. Zwei Strassen weiter war eine belebte Gegend mit Cafés, Restaurants und Läden. Metro und Bus waren gut zu erreichen. Das Zimmer war sehr sauber und hatte eine gute Grösse. Wir hatten superior und waren im EG.

Pros:

I love the fact that it had air conditioning

Cons:

The bed was really small for two people. The bathroom was very small hard to use the sink. There was no place to relax either in the room or outside in the lobby since it was too small.

Szuper volt!
Pros:

Minden rendben volt! Nem igazán tudok bármit kiemelni ami kilógna az összképből. Szuper minden.

Cons:

Számomra kevés hotel van ami 100%ig tetszik mert az ágyak matraca nem kellően kemény - és a hátamnak ez nem volt megfelelő - de ez egy egyéni helyzet. Sok más ember kényelmesen alszik.

Migliorabile
Pros:

Il bagno moderno e pulito

Cons:

Camera tripla troppo piccola! Non ci si poteva muovere
Mancavano delle asciugamani nel bagno e lo staff mi ha detto che sarei dovuto andare io alla reception per prenderle

Posizione ottima e camere molto pulite
Pros:

Struttura piccola ma camere nuove e molto pulite. Posizione molto comoda per visitare Londra, si trova a pochi passi da due stazioni della metro (Circle e central Line) e dalla fermata del bus. Il quartiere è residenziale, carino e tranquillo.

Cons:

Camera molto piccola, assenza di un appoggio per la valigia, colazione troppo costosa per ciò che propone.

Prima, maar zijn geld niet waard.
Pros:

De (gezins)kamer was ruim en erg schoon. De dame bij het ontbijt was erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam. De locatie was fijn, want het hotel ligt in een rustiger deel van Londen, maar wel met een metrostation op loopafstand.

Cons:

De algehele indruk was dat we te veel hebben betaald voor dit hotel. Het was een net hotel, maar niks bijzonders en niet gelegen in hartje Londen. De bedden waren erg kort (ik ben 1.86 en mijn voeten staken uit). De kamer rook te sterk naar luchtverfrisser of iets dergelijks, de badkamer naar afvoer. Het fruit bij het ontbijt was te onrijp om te eten. Het baliepersoneel was matig vriendelijk enz. Het zijn de kleine dingen die het hem doen.
