Fantastic hotel! Can’t recommend it enough! Even though we couldn’t check in, we left our bags at the front desk and when we came back later they had been put in our room. Such a nice atmosphere in there too.

酒店小而美，交通非常方便，出地鐵走三分鐘。附近有好幾家超市，最近的瑪莎衹要兩分鐘路程。老錢風，周圍都是高級區域，安全，安靜。
點評説中國人開的？這不是很好嗎？但是沒有看見有會説中文的店員，而且所有工作人員都挺友善，倫敦人感覺服務不是很好，這家的工作人員算態度很好的了。
晚上餐廳也有三道式晚餐，也不貴，東西也很好吃。

The room is poorly soundproofed, the hygiene is average, many details are not done well, the room is also very small and crowded, it is not the same as the promotion in the picture, the product is not as advertised, there is no stool, there is only one cabinet door that can't be ******, the door is popped out, I took pictures on purpose, the experience is particularly bad, I will never book again, there is a green light in the room at night, it is very dazzling, I can hardly sleep, I put a piece of paper on it to barely get a look, it's really speechless, I hope Ctrip can be more realistic

Great location for easy access to the Underground and local shops, but on a quiet street. The hotel is modern and comfortable, although the bathroom in a standard double is quite small. Good air conditioning and an excellent breakfast. Would stay again.

The room is very small and the elevator is very slow. It is said that the owner is Chinese? But whether it is true or not, I always feel that the waiters are very snobbish. But the level of people is there, it is hard to say anything. Some front desks are very good, and some are just for show. Breakfast is perfunctory. UU should be cautious. I bought a room ticket on Ctrip and it was even discounted. Ctrip refunded some of the difference. To be honest, this hotel does not need to cooperate. It has no sincerity. The price itself is not high, but it is still very expensive to promote.

Check-in Counter：⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️(5/5)
The staff is very kind and polite👍
The check-in process was smooth👍
The Room：⭐️⭐️⭐️(3/5)
We were assigned to the room on lower ground, which is near the stair, therefore we kept hearing some noise on the ceiling. The room has a balcony, however there had some spider web on chairs so we didn't use it.
The Bathroom：⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️(4/5)
The bathroom looks clean and new, it's good.
The hotel description mention that they will provide the toiletries, however they are missed.
