This is NOT a hotel
Pros:

Location

Cons:

This isnt a hotel, nor should it pretend to be. It's a student halls of residence. If I'd lived here when I was a student I'd have been over the moon, but i'm no longer a student.
Also.absolutey freezing cold.

Jó helyen volt, így választanám legközelebb is.
Pros:

Étkezést nem lehetett kérni. Több reggelizőhely és bolt volt a közelben. A környék teljesen jó, könnyen megközelíthető. Segítőkész személyzet. Csendes.

Cons:

Kicsivel nagyobb ágynak jobban örültünk volna, viszont kényelmes volt.

Fine for a budget overnight stay and well-placed
Pros:

The Junior Suite had a small sitting room in addition to the bedroom and bathroom. Everything was clean and towels and toiletries laid out on the bed. The location is great, just off the Southbank, behind Tate Modern. Value is reasonable considering it's central London and they had availability at short notice. The Air bnb rooms are all on the top floor, with no mixing with student rooms as far as I could see.

Cons:

There seemed to be an air conditioning plant outside the window which would have kept me awake had I not had earplugs. There was a ventian blind instead of curtains in the bedroom so, again, my sleep would have suffered had I not had a sleep mask.

Overcharged with no repayment.
Pros:

Location

Cons:

I paid for a suite, but was only allocated a basic room. Staff unable to rectify even though advised immediately apparent. Worse, they are impossible to contact to get refund of over payment.
