No privacy in the room. No breakfast. Not worth the money.
Pros:

I liked the location.

Cons:

The room had a bed with a duvet that didn’t reach the edges. Nowhere to hang bath towels.
No table or chairs.
A mini bar was advertised but it was just an empty fridge.
The hotel has no lobby, no extra bathrooms.
We were only given one key.

The shower was in a bath that was in the bedroom and the toilet was a tiny room with a tiny sink. There was absolutely no privacy within the room. Climbing into the bath was extremely awkward as it was higher than usual and also, in an open bedroom. All mystery was lost.

Muy buen hotel para hospedarse en el centro de Londres.
Pros:

La distribución de la habitación. Estaba separado el inodoro de la ducha y el lavatorio de manos. Nos recibieron con pantuflas y nos reponían diariamente el agua.

Cons:

La recepción es muy chica.

Perfect location, beautiful and spacious suits
Pros:

Location was perfect!
The suit was huge, and beautiful. Loved the design, the space the bathroom and shower.

Cons:

On Sunday night (we stayed Sunday till Thursday) the restaurant turned into a bar with very loud music until 2.30am. Since the suit is on the first floor we heard the party too well.
The other nights were quiet.
