A nice centrally located hotel. Staff was very helpful, more so than any other hotel we have stayed. Dining at the hotel is pretty much nonexistent, but the food was good when we tried it. Bathroom was small and toilet area even smaller Location was excellent. We would stay here again.

Location is the best for tourist! You are right next to china town, two squares and a 10 minute walk to covent market! Choice of two subway entrances. I would recommend the suite bc the regular queen size rooms are small. Suite bed is great, rain shower and robes. Pull out was comfortable. There is a restaurant on property. They need free drip coffee in the lobby. If you arrive early from a flight please book the night before you arrive so you can go straight to your room. You will have to wait till 4:00 if not. I had to book resortforaday.com to get some sleep until my room was ready. Very safe and quiet. Went with myself and two teens.

Most of the staff was great. One gentleman asked us to not bring in outside food. We picked up some croissants and decided to eat in the lobby area while we planned our. No one else seemed to mind.

This is a great budget friendly hotel in a wonderful location just around the corner from Trafalgar Square. The buffet breakfast was very good, the staff were all excellent, and the rooms were comfy. Though, our bathroom needed a fresh remodel. The hotel is older, but very clean. I would recommend this hotel.
