Mem’s room no. 5 is on a top floor. When you think you’ve arrived, there are two more flights of stairs to cover. 78 steps in total. We would have appreciated it if we had had this information in advance as it can make or break your stay, especially depending on whom you travel with.
The room itself is spacious enough for two; there is enough space to store clothes and luggage, and the shower is wonderful. Also, what a TV.
Having said this, it gets really, really hot both during the day and at night. We couldn’t draw the blinds as they were broken, and so extreme heat and little ventilation resulted in a scorcher.
Mem was lovely throughout, communication was smooth and self check-in was straight forward. The flat is a 12’ walk to Victoria and is easily accessible by public transport (handy bus no. 24 opposite the place, the tube a few minutes away). Pimlico is quiet, feels safe, and is a lovely area to explore. If Mem can address the issues above, this can become a wonderful room for many a visitor.
