lovely surprise in the city

clean room friendly staff room upgrade good surprise
I was so pleased with the room. It was clean and well-equipped. the staff was super friendly and helpful throughout my stay. i even received a room upgrade, a good surprise. i would consider staying here again on my next visit.
the walls seemed quite thin, and i could hear some noise from neighboring rooms, though it didn't bother me too much.

The location was great! it was close to the tube station and , made getting around easy. the staff was nice. They gave good tips about the city. the room itself had a fridge, I found that VERY useful.
the area didn't feel too safe at night. the room was accessible from the street, I wasn't too happy about that. the Uber driver even seemed concerned, unsettling! it felt overpriced for what it was

the staff was helpful. cigdem was especially lovely and really helpful. i found the location easy to reach from the underground station. the room was as i expected, and the fan made a big difference, even though it was a hot day.
upon arrival, i discovered i wasn't in the main building. i had to walk about five minutes to another building. the area near the other building did not feel safe. it was like a seedy area.

Adequate short stay

accessible location train station luggage storage difficult check-in converted cellar small window
The location is accessible. It has a train station only 10 minutes away. This makes going around easy. They let me leave my suitcase after checking out. I needed this as I visited an expo.
The check in was just ok. The hotel room was like a converted cellar. Small windows face the pavement outside.
