The hotel was not up to my expectations. The rooms felt dated and not clean, especially with the suspicion that the bed sheets were unchanged. The lack of a bath made it challenging for me as I have a baby. The premium rates did not match the mediocre breakfast offered.

The hotel was light and airy with good breakfast but lacking in child-friendly sofa safety. The rooms had tea and coffee making facilities for early risers but could be more inviting. The service was excellent, with helpful staff available throughout the day. The location was convenient with good access to transport options. The dining experience offered a decent selection but could improve in replenishing items during off-peak hours.

The hotel has a lovely fresh smell and offers crisp, clean bedding and towels in the rooms, despite some stains on the carpet and the aged fold-out bed. The attentive and helpful service staff make up for any shortcomings, ensuring a quieter and more pleasant stay. The location is convenient for the Tower of London and transportation, although slightly noisy. The dining options are good overall, with a slightly limited hot buffet. However, the lack of onsite dining other than vending machines or takeaways could be an inconvenience.
