Comfortable and convenient location in London

Cute boutique, hotel in residential type area. Wonderful for walking around and close to train station. Comfortable beds and a little more space than downtown London hotels. Staff was friendly andhelpful and we loved the evening glass of wine in the lobby.

Polite and helpful staff. Very quiet rooms. The beds were very comfortable. The shower....I still daydream about the shower. On-demand endless hot water and water pressure that will power-wash the dirt off of you. Glorious. Would definitely stay again.

Great area! The property itself seemed quite old. Our toilet clogged itself every day we stayed. There was some sort of electrical box just outside our room that emitted a very high pitched whirling sound that was relentless. They said they fixed it, but the sound persisted and was even louder after. I can still hear the ringing in my ears. Got zero sleep even with ear plugs. Not restful
