Excellent location and room facilities
The location is bravo - the tube station exit and supermarket are both within 2 min walk. The room is extremely comfortable overall and we like it very much. The toiletries are excellent and the coffee capsule is nice. The only thing to improve is it would be good to have a kettle.
