The hotel's location is near the Earl's Court tube station. This offered easy access to various parts of the city. The hotel provided an iron and ironing board, which proved useful.
I noticed fraying on the carpet in my room. I thought this could use attention to improve the overall appearance.

I really appreciated the friendly reception staff, rencila and raka were helpful. they took the time to explain the metro system, even writing down directions for me. the location was perfect for seeing a show. St james's park was just a short walk away. the hotel safety was good and the cleanliness was really good (a big plus for me!).
The elevator was a bit small. It only fit about four people comfortably.
