quiet locationtube stationconvenient pubcute coffee shop

The inn is in a quiet location. it's near a tube station. a pub operates downstairs. It's convenient for a nightcap. a cute coffee shop sits on the corner. it's perfect for a morning coffee.

The shower needed more attention regarding cleanliness. I thought this could improve with little effort.

The staff was very helpful. They were very good too ensure my stay was satisfactory.

My room felt quite tired. The shower looked nice but was broken, so that was useless. air conditioners on the roof created a terrible noise throughout the night. I definitely regretted my choice.

Acceptable Stay, Some Issues

broken shower headloud noise

The shower head was broken, so I had to use the handheld shower head, inconvenient. The noise from adjacent flats made it difficult to sleep. I told the staff about the noise and someone was supposed to come to hear it but no one came, it was disappointing.
