mediocre stay, some issues

convenient locationsmelly pillowsreplacement pillows
the location was convenient.
the pillows smelled like old, stale cheese socks, really off-putting. when i asked for replacements, they said they would swap them, but the new pillows smelled the same. this issue really impacted my stay, and i'm not sure i would return because of it. it's a shame as otherwise the room was adequate.

excellent stay near kelvinbridge

close locationreasonable sizecomfortable bedquiet area
the subway station is very close (just a couple of minutes away). the room was a reasonable size for a single traveler like me. i found the bed comfortable enough for a good night's sleep. the area felt quiet, so i wasn't disturbed by outside noise.
the stairs were a bit steep, so i had to take extra care when carrying my luggage.
