Judy 8.0

Good location, easy to find Large room with tea making facilities

Ricky 8.0

Location and overall setup was really great. Near a lot of facilities, like supermarkets, drugstores, dining options but also near the Russel Square station with connection to the Piccadilly line.

Craig 8.0

Stayed here twice now. If you're on a budget its certainly ok. Found it to be comfortable & generally pretty adequate throughout. Had a fridge this time which was good. Reliable; you're sent all the access info etc to get in. Good location. Would happily stay here again, just watch the stairs!
