Perfect if you dont care about room standards
I have stayed here quite a few times and this was not the best stay I had. Staff that I interacted with where friendly. However, requested twice for a top in the morning while cleaning service was about. They went into the room but didnt top up the tea and coffee station. Asked again for these when i saw it and still nothing. At 11.30 at night had to take my child out on a horrible night to get milk from a local shop and they wanted some tea to help them sleep. Also requested for dust to be cleaned off the wall lights as it was effecting my allergies. Again, this was not done, despite the clearers been in the room.

Learning a lot!
Couple stay. The room was spacious and comfortable however there didn’t seem to be any way to regulate room temperature.bathroom tired and could do with updating. Lovely river view. Really convenient location within easy walk of all the City’s attractions. Recommend walking the walls, tower museum, the pubs and coffee shops on Waterloo st. Decent breakfast, usual fare. Be aware the nearby Exchange restaurant and wine bar only serves drinks if you are eating there - we called in for a cocktail and were basically chucked out after one drink! Licensing rules apparently but it’s not clear when you go in. Overall loved our visit and learnt a lot. It’s a great city.

Very small beds, small room, terrible pillows. Needs some freshing up with paint and carpet. Tub was difficult to maneuver for over 70s group, very high sides having to crawl over.

All good except that the room was too warm and I could not reduce the temperature.
