Die Unterkunft war sehr sauber, die Zimmer sind jedoch sehr klein für 4 Erwachsene inkl. Gepäck. Leider wurde der Feueralarm nicht wie geplant um 11.30 getestet sondern bereits um 8.30, was uns unsanft aus dem Schlaf riss.

Hotel chaleureux dans d'anciennes habitations typiquement londoniennes. Très bon petit déjeuner, belle décoration, notamment les valises du comptoir d'accueil et le mobilier du bar. Un hôtel très bien placé à côté de la gare St-Pancras, dans une petit rue calme. Nous y avons passé 5 jours très agréables.
