I had a comfortable stay at Russell's place. I've stayed in four locations in central London in the past month for a work-related course and for me this room offered the best balance of perfect location, very good value, privacy and security, and comfort that I've found so far - I particularly appreciated the fridge and tea/coffee set. A previous review mentioned difficult stairs and a small room, but the stairs were fully manageable with normal hand luggage and there was plenty of storage space for this so I didn't find it an issue. The one problem for me was street noise - it was a bit louder than other locations even with earplugs, partially due to construction works in the area, but that wouldn't prevent me from staying here again.
