Such a great little Hotel! Perfect for families.
Pros:

The location was within minutes of the London underground. Beautiful breakfast with lots of options. The family room that sleeps 4 was terrific. We arrived after an overnight flight and they let us in early to change! Would highly recommend this property for your stay in London!

Mooie plek, kan beter
Pros:

Locatie is top

Cons:

Bed is echt te smal om comfortabel van je nachtrust te genieten.
Ontbijt niet doen, is echt het geld niet waard. Buffet is karig, ala cart is oké maar niet geweldig.
