Pros:

I liked the fact the double room was big enough: me and my bridesmaids got reasy there!

Cons:

The bed was a bit too narrow so it felt like I was going to fall

Pros:

Nous avons particulièrement apprécié la climatisation.
Le confort en général.

Cons:

Les soirées du vendredi et samedi soir au pub en dessous des chambres sont bruyante avec la musique jusqu'à 2 heures du matin.
Même si les bouchons d'oreilles sont proposés, ce qui aide.

Attention is needed
Pros:

Close proximity to the tube station. Room was a good size for two people.

Cons:

The whole room needed updating, peeling wallpaper, stained carpets, the bathroom bin was broken and rusting, the air conditioning did not work and there were stains on the bed sheets.

When we used the shower the drain didn't work, hence the toilet got flooded. Also the carpet was dirty.
