No water for half of my stay, no apology !
Pros:

Check-in fine. Location great. The person running breakfast was really nice.

Cons:

No water all night - was told with a flyer stuck to my door when I got back in the evening - terrible communication. I understand things happen but they said it would be back on by six and it wasn’t till gone eight . Reception staff were really unhelpful, firstly told me at seven that it would be ten minutes then called at eight - tried a few times and they ignored the calls . Went down and they could not have been less interested.

Great location, clean and friendly.
Pros:

Staff were very friendly and helpful. We had an issue with the aircon in our room which was very noisy and a solution was offered. The hotel is very close to the tower of London and the City. We'll be back. The restaurant was spacious and breakfast copious with various formulas available. We were particularly appreciative of the staffs' effort to make our stay as pleasant as possible.

Cons:

There was only one bathrobe and one small bottle of water in the room which was reserved for two people. Our room was on the second floor with no view so next time we would request a different type of room. Too many emails sent by the hotel.
