Pros:

La posizione comoda per gli spostamenti, la struttura è tipica londinese, adorabile e la pulizia nulla da ridire.

Cons:

Lo stanzino per la colazione talmente tanto piccolo che era impossibile trovare posto, impossibile mangiare qualcosa ed anche l’assorbimento era troppo limitato, probabilmente perché non c’è posto per tenere le cose. Peccato

I couldn't wait to get out of this place.
Pros:

Location good. Staff friendly and helpful.

Cons:

Access to the room is poor (narrow stairs, no lift, fire doors). Room is tiny, it's more like a hole, I had a medium-size piece of luggage and I couldn't open it on the floor as there was not enough space. I had to put it on the bed. Bed is across wall-to-wall, if you are tall, you will hit the wall with your foot. It's hard if not impossible to get warm water in the shower. You can't look out the window as it's frosted. The carpet is old and grimy. I did not expect the Hilton for 137 quid a night but this is definitely below my expectations. Avoid!
