the location is great, close to kennington underground station. staff were friendly, and the pub had a nice atmosphere. the room was very clean.
the hallways smelled bad, a very specific thing i noticed. there was no breakfast served on weekdays at all, very disappointing. i had to squeeze past boxes with meat in the hallway in the morning, and those were for the pub kitchen.
