Reception entrance is very modern and stylish. My room was ok but very hot and humid in the evening. I had a fan but it wasn’t working properly so they replaced it with an old school van and it was a lot better. The lift was very slow and took too long to come. Breakfast options were ok, could be better. Was abit of a pain to get an uber to my locations, but I suppose that was because it was during the carnival period.

I don't often leave negative reviews but unfortunately this was one of the poorest hotel experiences I've had in some time. First, our room on the second floor was exceedingly and uncomfortably hot. Despite the fact that the temperature outside in the city was actually pleasantly cool for most of our stay, the room itself, with no AC, windows that only opened about 2 inches and only a very basic fan provided, was very hot. There was also no fridge in the room, so not even the possibility of storing some bottles of water at a cold temperature. In fairness, the hotel does not advertise that it has AC, and we should have probably checked before booking, but it also should not have been necessary in relation to the weather outside. Notably, the ground floor and reception areas appear to have AC, but not the rooms. The water also had a strange quality whereby soap would never completely rince out, which was really unpleasant. The wifi also kept disconnecting, such that you had to reconnect every day in order not to accidentally use all your data. When it did work it was decent though. Location was convenient and quiet. Breakfast was decent but nothing special. Staff were not particularly warm and approable, but did offer helpful assistance when asked. All in all, okay stay, but uncomfortable for the price paid. We were relieved to be going home when we left!

This hotel has no A/C so the room can be brutal in the summer. The room itself was 35c+ making it very hard to sleep. There was only one small fan to help. I would go outside to cool down. This hotel is in good location so may be worthwhile outside of summer time, but would not advise booking in summer. The breakfast is basic but fine and the staff was very kind.

The hotel is in a great area. The staff is excellent. The rooms are very small without air conditioning. We were there during a heatwave and had to check out after 2 nights. It was very uncomfortable in the room. The bed wasn't comfortable, very hard. The bathroom is small with only a small shelf above the sink. There's no fridge. The price of the room is too much for what you get. We paid less for a much bigger room with a/c, fridge and more amenities in a good location. They should invest in some portable a/c units and a fridge.

Hotel staff friendly and helpful. Room size was good. They offer breakfast, which is nice. Convenient location, easy walk to food, shops, Underground station, and other nearby places. The only thing I didn’t like, was the room didn’t have A/C. It was very hot and stuffy. They do have standing fans in the room, and with the windows open, it cools off enough at night.

Great location for easy access to tube etc. Really clean and comfortable. Breakfast is fine if you like continental, good choice and nice fresh pastries etc. Very peculiar that you cannot get any normal terrestrial channels on tv. And the room is incredibly hot in summer and no air con. Acknowledge that there was a heat wave when we were there but because you can’t open the window wide, the heat was insane. Otherwise, lovely place to stay with very efficient and polite staff.
