The room was quite spacious. I appreciated the kitchenette with its included plates and cutlery. The location was also convenient, with the Holborn tube station nearby and the West End shows within walking distance (a major plus!). I found it easy to get around.
There were no regular teabags in my room. Only Earl Grey was available. The hotel seemed a bit run down, noticeable. There also wasn't any sweetener or sugar. I would have appreciated these small additions.

great locationspacious roomcomfortable bedout-of-order lifthot roommobility issue
I found the location quite good. It was an easy walk to the British Museum. The room was spacious, which I appreciated. The bed was also firm and comfortable.
The lift was out of service during my entire stay on the third floor. I was offered assistance with my bags (a nice gesture). this would be a significant issue for anyone with mobility problems. The room also felt hot, even with the fans provided.
