Perfectly adequate for my needs. This building is safe, quiet, and centrally located, and it was perfectly suited for my no-frills needs. I am 40+ years old and didn’t feel out of place. The breakfast provided was adequate but definitely institutional food and I’d give the coffee a miss. :)

Everything was great. It was hot, we got a fan, if we needed room amenities, they were easy to get, nothing beats the location and convenience. Everyone was friendly and helpful. We will definitely visit again. Thank you.

Nice quiet accommodation, and I appreciated the close proximity of supermarkets and the tube. The breakfasts were good and the choice of indoor and outdoor seating was a plus.

It would be useful to know that there’s no soap or kettle or mugs provided. I think it’s fantastic value and would stay again but it would have been better with a heads up.

Room was what you would expect from a student room. Decent bed and shower. One downside was that the room and hallways are very warm and stuffy in summer.
Anon

Good value, safe and central accommodation. Good, if slightly quirky, breakfast. Friendly staff. A kettle in the room would be nice.
