Great location and cracking value. Lovely room with everything you needed. The only thing which was not 5 stars was the physical location of the breakfast hall and the quality of the food and service on offer. However this is really a minor issue for the price paid. The fact that the breakfast is served in the college 1 minute's walk away is stated on the website.

Ok Enough, better if you're on a lower floor.
No elevators, narrow stairs, old carpets in he halls. Just a heads up if you stay in floors 3 or 4. Room was nice and it's next to a park on a quiet street. Very near the train station for ease.

We had a really great stay. The area is really good, relatively close to a few underground stations, and the staff were really nice and helpful. My only issues were that I think the walls are a bit thin as we could hear other guests, and the shower head needed a really good clean. Can’t wait to stay again soon hopefully
