Pros:

L'hôtel est bien situé dans un quartier calme et est proche du métro qui vous emmènera aux lieux emblématique de Londres. J'ai apprécié d'avoir les toilettes ainsi que la salle dans la chambre. Petit plus il y a un ascenseur ce qui n'est pas négligeable surtout après une longue journée de visite. Personnels de l'établissement agréable.

Une localisation parfaite ne suffit malheureusement pas à compenser les nuisances sonores extrêmes.
Pros:

Localisation Excellente : L'hôtel bénéficie d'une situation idéale dans un quartier calme et très agréable de Londres, avec le métro à proximité. C'est le point fort indéniable.
Propreté : La chambre était parfaitement propre, rien à redire sur l'hygiène de l'établissement.

Cons:

Insonorisation catastrophique : bruits de rue, d’avions et des chambres voisines (conversations, ronflements, portes). Mauvaise isolation thermique et trop de lumière venant du couloir. Chambre minuscule avec rangement inutile. Gel douche en quantité insuffisante et non réapprovisionné. Petit-déjeuner industriel et décevant (viennoiseries rancies/sous sachet). Rapport qualité-prix très mauvais pour plus de 100€ la nuit.

Stanza essenziale e pulita, posizione ottima staff gentilissimo
Pros:

Ottima posizione a pochi minuti dalla metropolitana, zona molto tranquilla e silenziosa. La stanza essenziale ma letti molto comodi. Bagno minuscolo senza finestra.
Staff molto gentile e disponibile, cambiano asciugamani (solo uno a persona) tutti i giorni. Colazione abbondante
