The check-in service was very noteworthy. All staff. the rooms are very clean and well equipped. the hotel is quiet, something unusual for such a central location. It is only a couple of minutes from the british museum.

The room i had was a disappointment. it was very small and not representative of the advertising material online. drying myself and getting dressed in the bathroom was difficult. It was that tiny!
