Maria made me feel very much at home. She offered me something to eat and drink and made me a great breakfast every morning. She was very helpful on giving me tips of places to see and how best to get around the city. My room was very nice and clean and the bed was very comfortable. The adjoining bath was also very clean and nice. My stay at the Monks is a very memorable one and I would definitely stay there again. It is a little ways to central London but it is worth the while. Definitely a great place for the money.
