bedside tablepenhaligon toiletriestube stationminibar pricessmall gyminterior courtyard
My room had two bedside tables. The bathroom included Penhaligon's toiletries. I found the location was a short walk to the tube station.
The minibar prices were quite high. The gym was rather small. I noticed that my room faced an interior courtyard, so there was limited natural light.
