As described. A room in a building. Shared facilities. I’ve stayed in London hotel rooms before and they are tiny. If you are ok with shared facilities this is a great option. It is very clean, very quiet (except for street noise when windows open) and comfortable. We had no issues and we’d stay again. I’ll emphasize again it is very clean! The shared facilities weren’t a problem bc they keep them so clean. Remember to bring a toiletry bag to use when going to shower and a robe bc it can be hard to change in restroom after a steamy shower. Better to change in your room.
