clear communication city center train station

The location suited me well, I found a train station nearby. I easily accessed the city center from there. The communication was very clear. This supported my planning.

The automatic emails mentioned a midday checkout, I saw the actual checkout time was earlier.

Simple and Convenient Stay

convenient location safe district friendly staff hot kettle

The location was very convenient to public transport. The district felt safe, and i found it easy to get around. The staff was very friendly and helpful during check-in. I also appreciated that the room had a hot water kettle with coffee and tea bags.

The entrance area had a slightly musty smell, which gave a less than ideal first impression.

Rooms

8/10

My room was clean and cozy. I found the beds comfortable (a good night's sleep is essential!) and the room was adequately warm. There was a tv but i didn't use it.

Facilities

The hotel is located conveniently between two metro access points and a bus stop. This made exploring the city very simple. It is a short walk to the British Museum too, a bonus.
