This hotel felt very dated overall. The room was poorly maintained, with uneven floors and worn carpet that was heavily stained and even sticky in spots. The mattress was uncomfortable and felt old, and while the bedding wasn’t dirty, it was clearly worn. Maybe except for the top blanket. The room was extremely small, even by London standards, and the bathroom was even smaller. I could also smell cigarette smoke coming through the vents from a nearby room, which was very unpleasant. Travelers should note that the hotel has no lift, so reaching upper floors requires climbing many stairs and would only suit very mobile guests. Younger solo travelers on a tight budget might tolerate it, but families and older travelers should look elsewhere.
Overall, I felt the room pictures on Expedia are incredibly misleading and this does not deserve a 4 star rating.
From a location perspective, it’s not near anything. However, Victoria station is about a 10 minute walk in which you can grab the tube almost anywhere from there. Transport options are ample.
