The check-in process was smooth and professional. The breakfast offered a great selection. The hotel is located conveniently near the Shepherd's Bush tube station.
The hotel hallways showed some wear with tired paint and carpeting. The room felt a bit dated. The air conditioning in my room did not function.

The hotel features a helpful concierge. They could not have done anymore for me. My breakfast included great choices. Staff went over and beyond at all times. They offered halal options.
The bathtub wooden panel was swollen by water. The bathroom seemed very small. I noticed a missing water restock and missing glasses too.

The shower was a problem. It flooded the entire bathroom every time I used it! I tried angling the shower head, but nothing stopped the water from escaping. The room's cleanliness also wasn't great. I saw dust everywhere, and I found the bathroom especially unclean. I complained at reception, but nothing changed.
