Well located if you wish to wander through Spitalfields and immediate environs. Lots of nice pubs, Spitalfields Markets and an Ottolenghi restaurant all within a few minutes walk. Not so well located if you wish to visit traditional tourist spots such as Buckingham Palace, Horseguards, Trafalgar Square etc. Reasonably priced for the area. Unit comfortable enough for two people and their luggage ... three would be a squeeze. Bed can only be accessed from one side. 53 steps and a narrow staircase to get to our room. Would be a serious challenge for large or older people and/or heavy suitcases. No hot water in bathroom basin. Good hot water in shower. Bedside lamp not working. Dirty, rusty water started to leak from the ceiling above the toilet. Ceiling stains suggested it was a long term problem. We voluntarily chose to stay because we only had one more night and it was too much of a bother to re-locate. Had to cover ourselves with a towel when we wanted to use the toilet otherwise we would have been dripped on. Reported leak; workmen to fix it were promised and we waited a while but then left for the day to do touristy things. We have no idea if they showed up or not. It continued to leak. Commercial Street is very busy till all hours of the night and early morning, including ambulance and police sirens. Window would need to be kept open in the summer months for cooling but the noise would keep you awake. All in all, next visit to London I will pay more and go up a notch or two in quality.
