Pleasant stay in a great area
Pros:

The room was simple but good enough.
It is just round the corner from the Tate Modern so the area is incredibly good though we saw how someone tried to snatch a man's mobile phone. Scary.
The breakfast was amazing. A truly English breakfast with no restrictions as to the amount one can serve oneself. The quality and the variety were really satisfactory.

Cons:

I can't think of anything negative.

Excellent point de repos et de déjeuner
Pros:

Établissement très propre et très pratique ! Simple mais agréable avec de l’espace. Salle de bain très bien et plein de rangements. Le petit dej est un must très apprécié et très qualitatif !

Cons:

Un léger d’équipement, mais normal puisqu’il ne s’agit pas d’un hôtel.

Ottima struttura per risparmiare
Pros:

Prezzo. Colazione. Gentilezza dello staff.
Era quello che volevo. Ero consapevole di non acquistare un albergo a 5 stelle ma una camera in un alloggio per studenti e come tale si è presentata.
La camera era spaziosa e la colazione abbondante, anche se in qualità "mensa".
Ottima la posizione per visitare Londra e ottimo il servizio di cura dei bagagli, che ho utilizzato sia prima sia dopo la prenotazione, e mi ha consentito di visitare Londra sia il primo giorno in attesa della camera sia dopo il checkout.
Ottima la drinking water fruibile in reception.
Doccia con potenza dell'acqua super, che per me è un plus.

Cons:

Struttura datata, camere vecchie, bagno senza finestra. Materassi vecchi.
Seppur di livello "dormitorio per studenti", alcune cose minime a mio avviso sono necessarie.
Il materasso era molto datato, e anche se ci ho dormito bene perchè ero stanchissimo ogni sera, andrebbe aggiornato.
Il bagno non ha finestre e non funzionava l'aspirazione, quindi ad ogni doccia era pieno di vapore, e andava lasciato chiuso come da istruzioni della reception, per evitare che si attivasse l'allarme.
Acqua in camera non potabile, ma abbiamo facilmente ovviato con il refill in reception
Mouquette ormai deteriorata e sporca.

Pros:

Skvělá lokalita, zastávka autobusu z letiště za rohem, všechno blízko. Dobré a chutné snídaně, vynikající mražené jogurty. Služba úschovy zavazadel. Milý personál

Cons:

Koupelna, nebyl tam sprchový kout, ale sprcha oddělená od koupelny jen závěsem, takže ať se člověk snaží jakkoliv, tak je v celé koupelně potopa.
