Pros: Very professional hotel - a very business feel. Staff great, all good.
Cons: I don't know why English hotels do stays without breakfast ! Look at how the Irish hotels do it. Adding breakfast at 30 pounds is a real turn off ! No buffet breakfast in the world could cost that to supply? Maybe look at this to be a little different.
6.5 Good
Pros: Location was convenient and staff were really nice.

Pros: The hotel was clean and comfortable and overall a nice environment. Close to the tube station!

Also when we asked them later for a delivery, they searched and said they had none, we had to come back and ask again...they found it and said 'Oh, we thought you meant a package delivery, not ticket delivery'. Real air conditioning instead of a swamp cooler would have been nice.
