“What strikes me is its Georgian character, setting it apart from typical budget accommodations. The location in Bloomsbury, with its proximity to the British Museum and local universities, is a real advantage. Larger rooms and a mix of private and shared bathrooms, plus a 24-hour reception, make it a practical choice.”

The location was quite convenient. It was a short walk to the Goodge Street tube station. Breakfast offered a good selection of items.
The room I stayed in was quite small. I also found the bathroom to be quite tiny. There was a noticeable drain smell, made sleep difficult.

the breakfast was a lovely start to each day. staff let us store our bags after checkout, this allowed more time to explore. staff were also cute and helpful! the tv with netflix access was convenient.
The maids entered our room without notice to refill items. they folded our belongings and tidied our clothes into suitcases. It felt intrusive.
