Pros:

The location was ideal for accessing Kingsbridge hospital.

Cons:

The facilities are very dated. There was a smell from the drains in the bathroom and silverfish on the floor during the night. Upon checking out the staff member at reception didn’t even lift her head to a knowledge me, she simply put her hand out and took the key.
