Fantastic stay near Wandsworth!

I found the location convenient.. It's a short walk to the train station, providing quick access to central areas. The room was spacious and clean. The breakfast selection suited me well, with a good variety of options available each morning.

The hotel air conditioning seemed a little weak. The room temperature was slightly higher than I would have preferred. Even with adjustments, it remained a bit stuffy.

Solid Hotel with Convenient Amenities

toilet spacelight switchair conditioning

The room design allows the toilet space to be separated two ways, offering extra privacy. The light switch at the entry controls multiple light sources, providing added convenience. I found the room was very clean upon arrival, meeting my expectations for hygiene and comfort.

The air conditioning unit did not work during my entire stay. This made sleeping after long days very unpleasant. I hope the hotel addresses this issue .
