we liked the self-check-in very much and the place has a great quiet location near to transport links. The rooms (we extended our stay and stayed in two different rooms) and all shared spaces were very clean. There are few rooms that are rented out as Airbnb and then a lovely Italian couple living upstairs who were very friendly with us, offering us nice herbal tea and tips around London. Would recommend for a short or even a longer stay. Lina was always easy to get hold of when needed to. Thank you!
