The rooms, while initially cramped and basic, are now more spacious and have been improved. The service was friendly, although there were some noisy disturbances in the morning. The dining experience was enjoyable overall, despite issues with specific dishes.

The hotel's location was perfect for my needs, close to major sites and very near King's Cross station. The service was friendly overall, but there were some issues with rude receptionists. The dining experience offered nourishing English dishes, and the location was convenient for accessing attractions. The rooms had several issues like cracked walls and poor Wi-Fi, but they were clean. Price was reasonable for the value provided.

The hotel is centrally located in the Bloomsbury district, perfect for exploring downtown London with ease and feeling safe even late at night. The rooms were clean, but not the quietest, suitable for a quick rest between late-night activities. The service was helpful and accommodating, especially Mr Sam. The dining experience, particularly for breakfast, was good value for money.

My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The room, although a bit shabby with some painting issues, was spacious with big windows. The service provided on the 26th was efficient and the staff was kind, helpful, and fast. The location, just 2 minutes walking distance from Tottenham Court Road, was the only positive attribute I can think of, especially for attending the London Film Festival. However, the dining experience, with overdone bacon and eggs, was rather poor. Facilities were standard, lacking any standout features.

The hotel's location is fantastic, just a stone's throw away from Warren Street Tube and within walking distance of Euston. The hotel is also centrally located, which saves a lot of travel time, perfect for exploring areas like UCL, Soho, and Fitzrovia. The rooms are very small, some smaller than 3sqm, and some have noise issues near water tanks. The morning dining experience is adequate, with a nice selection of hot and cold options. However, there were some issues with smoke odors in the corridor. Overall, the service was friendly, even though there were initial mix-ups with room assignments.
