Top Lage
Pros:

Beste Lage! Zu Fuß ins Zentrum oder zu den vielen Theatern oder Musicalbühnen. U-Bahn-Station in der Nähe. Sehr viele nette Cafés, Lokale oder Shops im Umkreis. Britisches Museum nur wenige Minuten entfernt.
Die Lage war bei unserem Aufenthalt ein großes Plus, da an zwei Tagen die U-Bahnen streikten.
Unser Dreibettzimmer war ausreichend für drei Erwachsene. Durch den Blick in den Innenhof war das Zimmer sehr ruhig, man konnte bei offenem Fenster schlafen.
Vor und nach dem Auschecken kann man das Gepäck deponieren.

Cons:

Zu wenige Ablagen im Zimmer und im Bad. Sehr enges Doppelbett.
Frühstück: kaum Frisches, der Raum ist sehr beengt. Insgesamt ist das Frühstück aber in Ordnung.

Cons:

Mouse traps everywhere. I didn't want to eat breakfast there due to the rodent problem. Very expensive for a miniature room. Very poor value for money. Holiday Inn Express much better.

Je ne recommande pas.
Pros:

Localisation proche du métro et arrêt de bus. Assez facile d’accès.

Cons:

Chambre en sous-sol, bruyant, côté rue, Impossible de dormir fenêtre ouverte. Pièce avec forte odeur désagréable d’humidité. Vieillot. Propreté moyenne. Petit déjeuner simple, peu de choix. Le prix ne vaut pas la prestation.

é um hotel seguro, budget friendly, tem as comodades necessárias. aconselho só a pedir antecipadamente ou quarto em baix
Pros:

os funcionários eram muito prestáveis. era calmo também. fichas com usb que permite ultrapassar a falta de
conversor.

Cons:

o espaço mesmo exíguo: os quartos single não tem sítio para colocar a roupa. se for para viagem de trabalho será melhor um quarto maior. o aquecimento também não dava para controlar. podem reduzir nos têxteis só porque acumula um pouco de pó.
