Everything was modern, the continental breakfast was totally worth it. The staff were helpful, no complaints. Enjoyed the location, it was good, hop on Hop off bus stop is right across the street. Also, Saint Mary's Cathedral was just a short distance away.

Thanks a lot everyone for a very good stay on our last visit. The staff were helpful and caring and was willing to help, if required. The hotel was in a fantastic location next to Sainsbury/Argos store, and the local tube station for what we wanted it for.
