"Stuck in 1970s tatty and tired"
Rooms are tatty and tired. Not very clean. Bathroom worn, tatty and not up to date. Room stifling hot, cannot open windows no fresh air. Train tracks outside window, very noisy. Stuffy uncomfortable. Comfy bed though.

"Good service beware the service charge at bar"
We were offered an upgrade on arrival which was too good to turn down. Had a nice room and we`re happy until we were charged a "Service Charge" at the bar of 10% when all that was done was: I ordered 2 drinks, the barman pulled 2 pints, I paid and was surprised to see a 10% sevice charge added on the receipt. This is and was not acceptable.

The service was second to none. At all stages we were made to feel like special guests. The hotel is easy to find, close to a tube station (an added unexpected bonus was that the weekend we were staying, all trains were suspended! Initially we panicked, but the buses 23 & 9 both go into central London, and ran every few minutes. Bus 49 took us to South Kensington, the lines were running fine from there) Also because of this, it was incredibly quiet in our room, which overlooked the tube lines! We very much liked the room. Having read previous reviews which were not very encouraging, we were happy to find it was clean, a decent size, and had a powerful shower. What`s not to like about that? The breakfast was fabulous. All choices of both full cooked meals, cereals/yoghurts/pastries & continental options available to self-serve. Any complaints about this, and I would seriously question what is in their kitchens at home! A thoroughly delightful stay, thank you.

"Housekeeping"
All good except for ran out of toilet roll, ran out of milk - eventually came to room when we were asleep got woken up by knock and someone opened our door. Towels needed replacing. Also at breakfast given wonky table and wonky seat. Drinks spilled as a result. Overall though our stay was good these are just small things that wouldn`t stop us from staying again.
