Lovely hotel, all the staff we interacted with were very friendly, cheerful and helpful staff during our stay. Metro close by, quite of a few bars, cafes and places to eat. Only thing to note was there isn't a great deal of parking spaces at the back of the hotel but there is one close by if needed.

Warm welcome and wacky decoration at beautiful townhouse, well situated for university. Inflated prices due to open day not entirely justified - no towels or hand soap in bathroom, limited breakfast choice (only full English, only white toast)
