Bra ställe att sova och ha sitt bagage på och väldigt centralt. Inte det fräschaste hotellet.
Pros:

Ligger väldigt centralt och bra till Gloucester Road station. Alltid nya tecken och lakan varje dag efter man har varit borta hela dagen. Bra ställe att sova och lägga sina saker på.

Cons:

Dörren till toan gick inte att låsa. Lite halvt smutsigt och inte det modernaste hotellet.

No tan ideal como parece
Pros:

Ubicación

Cons:

No está muy bien mantenido. Las ventanas no cierran bien y se cuela el frío, la calefacción no funcionó mientras estuve alojada y el estado general del mobiliario dejaba que desear.

El baño es extremadamente pequeño, apenas podía lavarme la cara o secarme al salir de la ducha.

El desayuno, en mi opinión, deja mucho que desear. No llegué a desayunar porque cuando eché un vistazo al buffet (dos días diferentes) me pareció muy pobre para las 12 libras que cuesta.

Never again! I should have taken pictures for below but didn't have the inclination to do so.
Pros:

The location and the staff. The breakfast was just ok.

Cons:

The room was ridiculously small. The bedroom door hit the bed on entry, The bathroom could not have been smaller and the toilet had been fitted in the only way it could fit but made it totally impractical for certain usage. There were French Doors not windows which was not an issue, but they did not close properly and with the single glazing the draft and the noise was terrible. The tv was pointless as it only had a few channels that worked, but these were poor in quality as it was off an internal aerial.
