Room was very clean and compact. Staff were business like and courteous. Special mention to Scottish cleaning lady who was professional and friendly. Units are new and adjacent to a heritage pub with its own restaurant.Only a five minute walk to numerous eateries and shops on the Strand. Units are very quiet as windows and doors are double glazed. Personal parking spot outside of each unit. Highly recommended.

Stayed in the original building room, Simpkins. People in opposite room smoked heavily at the emergency door entrance, with the door open. Corridor filled with smoke smell which ended up filling room. Moved to a room further down corridor, next night, result the same.
