The location is a fairly easy 7 minute walk to Holborn subway station which connects you to most places you might want to visit in London. About the same walk provides access to shopping and restaurants.
While not the cleanest of neighborhoods we found it to be quiet and the beds are reasonably comfortable. We liked having the washer and dryer available and all appliances were in good working order. We also liked having two sets of keys. The bathroom floor needs some repairs and the toilet seat needs to be adjusted. Plenty of hot water for showers. It was a nice stay for three days.
