We stayed here for my girlfriend’s 30th birthday in order to have a base in London to travel from over the weekend - which really served its purpose.
When booking a fair bit in advance, I did request that we be put in a room with a view of the Thames, however, despite the staff being really friendly and helpful, were not able to accommodate us on this front.
As a heads-up, I would say that some of the pictures were somewhat misleading in that I thought that the pictures of the lounge were a part of the “entire apartment” that I was expecting us to stay in, which looked huge. However, this is not the case and the reference to “entire apartment” refers to a kitchenette in the room only.
The room was very clean overall and cosy, despite being a bit on the small side. Our only gripe about the room was the positioning of the sink and the bottom of the mirror in the bathroom, which made it incredibly difficult for me to brush my teeth and use the sink at the same time. Unfortunately, there was a really bright display screen from the microwave that we couldn’t turn off which lit up the room like a night light, and, there was a fire alarm on the ceiling that flashed every couple of minutes, both of which affected our sleep.
Also, soundproofing the rooms would be a good suggestion, as there was a fair bit of noise in the mornings from passers by in the corridor and from the neighbouring rooms.
Overall, our stay was pleasant, the room was nice and staff were friendly and approachable.
