I booked this ensuite double room, which is at the end of a corridor with five other rooms, and it was really comfy. The bathroom is like in the old days, with decorative tiles and a bath tub. There were kitchen items in the room, a water heater, some cutlery, plates, cups, and even a choice of teas and coffee - not to forget the cookies. So that was quite a treat. The plae was nice and clean, and I loved to slip under the crisp duvet cover.
Hyde park is a short walk away. You have to cross a major thoroughfare first, but then you thread through a beautiful residential area, and there you are. So I was able to enjoy a leisurely morning jog and get back "home" to have a nice shower and breakfast in my little home away from home.
Tina was incredibly helpful and accommodating. When I arrived, I had problems with the internet, and since I had a conference call very early in the morning, she got out of her way to help me. She bought an internet chip and left me her personal mobile phone in my room so I could use it as a router - and got me out of this tight spot. And this was at 9:30 pm! Tina was also very accommodating as far as check-in and check-out were concerned. She offered to be there in person, if I wished her to, for the check-in, and let me stay a little longer on the day I checked out so I wouldn't need to hang around at the airport for hours.
It is Tina who makes the place what it is. Thanks again!!!
