Other than the lack of aircon/ cooling it was a great place to stay.
Pros:

Nice location and good sized room. Glad there was a fan provided and we had a back room with a decent sized window we could leave open.

Cons:

The building was very warm and stuffy. We managed to cool our room down a little but only by leaving the fan going 24/7. The laundry facilities werent what we expected and we ended up needing to hang our clothing around our room to dry as the machine took 3 times the time it stated and didnt properly dry our clothes.

Désagréable
Cons:

En sortant de l'ascenseur pour accéder à ma chambre c'est une fournaise irrespirable et entrant dans la chambre trop chaud la première fois que je transpire dans un hôtel il y avait un ventilateur qui fait plus de bruits qu'il vousenvoie de l'air vraiment désagréable pour le prix que j'ai payé j'aurai trouvé mieux ailleurs avec une bonne climatisation.

I would not recommend it for summer sadly
Pros:

It was nice decorated, and it’s very independent you manage every thing from your phone no need to check in or check out.

Cons:

There is no ac and it is not possible to open the windows more than 10cm. The heat was imposible. They give me a fan and another one when I requested but without fresh air from the street it’s imposible to stay in without sweating. I didn’t enjoy the hours I spend in the room when I was not sleeping. The hotel was at least 10 degrees more than the outside literally like an oven. Maybe in winter it’s nice but my experience in summer it wasn’t.

Great neighborhood.
Pros:

Newly renovated room where all worked.
Inner yard facing rooms are silent.

Cons:

No aircondition (no heat pump). Very hot during the heat wave.
Nearby breakfast place was poor and not many breakfast places nearby.
Access requires mobile phone. So if your cell phone battery is dead you can not access.
Street facing rooms are noisy.

Wir werden nicht nochmals kommen
Pros:

Zentrale Lage in Bus- und Tube-Nähe, Ausstattung Zimmer, obwohl klein (Untergeschoss)

Cons:

Obwohl die Außentemperatur in der Nacht nur 15 Grad hatte, war das Zimmer derart aufgeheizt, dass wir kaum schlafen konnten. Ein Ventilator hat hier leider nicht Abhilfe geschafft.
Waschbecken war komplett verstopft
