I was in Richmond/Kew area to do research at the National Archives for a little over 3 weeks. This room was absolutely perfect! The private bathroom was very spacious and nice, as was the bedroom. Having a mini kitchenette (mini fridge, hotplates/toaster oven, microwave and tea kettle) was amazing. It was so helpful to be able to make quick meals and it was nice not having to worry about sharing the space with others. There is even a washing machine in the room so I could do my own clothes. And Lawrence has thought of everything. The internet was fast, the tv package was good and there is even a printer in the hall if you have to print a document last minute. The best part of all was that the room is less than 5 minutes from Kew station, 10 minutes from the Archives and less than 10 minutes from Kew Gardens, and the bus to Hampton Court stops just a few houses up the street. I will definitely stay here again anytime I am in the area and highly recommend it.
