Apart from the location, there is nothing else to like about it.
The room is too small, there is no elevator, the price is high, and the breakfast is poor. It is just a small villa converted into a family hotel.
Not recommended!

I booked a room and was arranged to stay in the basement on the first day and in the attic on the second and third days. My neck was bitten by mosquitoes and swollen to the size of an egg. I thought I was seriously ill and went to the emergency room. Then I was moved to a normal room on the third floor.

The location of the hotel is acceptable, but the quality is not right. The price is far beyond the value. The room is small, the bathroom is small, there is no elevator, and there is no hot food for breakfast. It has at most three-star facilities, but it does charge 5-star prices. Sorry T r ¡ p is pushed to the customers of the platform without screening, which is a great loss of integrity.

The room was clean and had a modern feel.
However, it was difficult because there is no elevator.
I was grateful to the friendly staff for lifting the carrier.
The location was unfortunate because it was a 10-minute walk to several subways, but
The bed was also very soft and clean, so I slept soundly.

Very clean and comfortable, the furniture is new, and the decoration style is very like. The door is a bit small but the lobby decoration style is very British! The disadvantage is that because it is an old-fashioned British building, there are stairs and no elevators. It is a little difficult for our room to climb up on the top floor 😂
