The room was fully-equipped, there were an iron/ironing board, a work desk, and a flat-screen TV with satellite channels. The breakfast was healthy for the standard option, and the staff was competent. Our accommodation was set in a central location so close to the transport, the Natural History Museum and underground. Overall the service was very good.
Well, the views were pretty average here.
