Cheap and cheerful. Hotel is in a strip of row homes each a different hotel. Room we booked had 3 beds (queen and 2 singles). Lots of room. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Very close to Victoria station and Buckingham Palace.

Great location. We booked this place as it was affordable. Everything was clean and in working order. Doesn’t have A/C so we found it a bit warm. They do have fans which help a bit.

For a single traveler it had everything I needed. Some might say the rooms are small but suited me down to the ground. I can’t speak for those that travel in pairs. I would definitely use the hotel again.

The staff were great: very helpful, attentive, kind and ready and willing to help. It's very close to lots of great places and within walking distance of Victoria Station. It's a quiet and safe area. Please note that you have to use the stairs as there are no elevators. This was perfect for me as I am solo travelling. I am very satisfied with the booking. They also offer a baggage storage service and early check-in for £15.

Room was very clean however very small, communal walkways need a lot of love and TLC and could put you off- price wise little expensive for what it was but it’s a great location. Shower was amazing though.
