The staff was fine and friendly. The room was the worst smallest room I’ve ever stayed in. It was not a good value, pressing all the buttons to get in and out of the room was also a nightmare. It was the worst night I ever had.

Great and quirky hotel with lots of character and a great location. Price was good and rooms are excellent, hardwood floors all round. Something different definitely from the bland same-same hotel chains and definitely worth a visit.

Wonderful unique hotel

This is a wonderful and quirky hotel - something out of the ordinary Each room themed differently, and there's a lot of history to be discovered if you have time to wander around the hotel Breakfast was excellent - A buffet breakfast that is not just the usual fare Only slight downgrade was the check-in process ... Everyone needed their own ID, and all were taken and painstakingly entered into the system. And then, at 3pm the rooms weren't ready so we had to wait a little, and then be showed to our rooms one room at a time (we weren't allowed to just go find them ourselves)

Overall was ok, but AC did nothing

Overall good hotel but the AC was next to worthless. My friend in a different room said the same. It barely blew air and was not really cold. Also, housekeeping entered the room twice while I was sleeping after an early check in. I’d still stay there again though as long as it isn’t hot weather

This boutique hotel has a lot of cute trinkets, unique paintings, and thoughtful design touches that gave it a lot of character. It definitely has a warm, artistic vibe that stands out from typical chain hotels. My room was located on the 4th floor, but be aware that the elevator only goes up to the 3rd. I had to carry my luggage up another floor from stairs, which can be a bit of a hassle if you have large suitcases. I’d recommend requesting a room on a lower floor if mobility or luggage is your concern. The location is great, very convenient for sightseeing. It’s close to the Tube and C2C train station, with a bus stop just around the corner. I also felt safe walking around the area even in the evening, which is a big plus. The staff were friendly and helpful. The only thing I was not happy about was the weak Wi-Fi signal in my room. It made staying connected a bit frustrating, especially when trying to plan activities or check travel details. Overall, it’s a lovely, cozy place with lots of personality, just make sure you pack light or plan accordingly if you're not on one of the lower floors.
