4.7Staff was extremely friendly and helpful
Free breakfast, free internet, laptops for hire only 2 pounds per hour
The room was small, but had everything I needed, and was a great price
hot water pot was dirty, but I wasn't going to use it anyway
There is a grocery store only about 2 blocks away, very convenient, and also a convenience store just downstairs with almost everything you need including cheap phone cards. Make sure to bring your own toiletries, nothing is provided except for soap. But, you can still purchase it all easily at the convenience store downstairs.
The location of this hotel is great, only about a 10 minute walk from the Victoria underground station, and the Victoria Coach station. Short walk from Buckingham Palace, big ben, westminster abbey, the london eye, and many other attractions.
This hotel is almost 1 hour walk and train ride from london heathrow airport however, so if you have an early morning flight, you will either need to call a taxi (expensive) or book a hotel by the aiport for your final night in london. Hotel will watch your luggage if you need a place to keep it for the rest of the day after you check out.
Hotel is definitely not a five star hotel, but for the price, everything was great. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone.
