Solid Stay Near Tottenham Court

prime location efficient service fresh options

The hotel offered a prime location close to major attractions. I appreciated the efficient service from the staff, who were always ready to assist. The breakfast buffet provided a wide selection, with many fresh options.

The room temperature was difficult to regulate, and the air conditioning unit seemed less effective.

poor room design breakfast service

the location was acceptable because it was central. i could walk to many places from there.

the room i got initially was not good. it was small and the bathroom needed a better design. the sink placement behind the door made it difficult to move around. breakfast had too few staff, causing delays in service.
