This was perfect for a cheaper hotel. The bed was not comfortable after a couple of nights. Otherwise, the location was great. There's a nice bar and sitting area. They serve food 24 hrs a day.

First visit to London
Location is great. 2 min walk to the Southwark underground station. Which has full lift access - a must if travelling with suitcases. Not all underground stations have this. Room was good but the lino flooring could definitely do with a good clean. Breakfast was decent for £13.50, although hot food was mostly only warm.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Room comfort
A cold and noisy double room on the 3rd floor wiith very little natural light, as the clothes rail was in front of the small window at the back of the room. A lukewarm shower in a wet room and the coldest vinyl floor imaginable. One thin pillow with matching duvet. All for simple accommodation for a one night stay, but please get the basics right. Such an uncomfortable and cold night. Never again.

Had an issue with room not available at time of booking. Additionally called to have the shower fixed as it would not drain. And we also got an accessible bathroom which is not what I requested and booked. Property made 0 assistance to help nor refund anything.

Stay went smooth. Wish the hotel had heaters but I guess that’s how London is because there’s no heaters in a lot of places. Overall the experience was really good in both the hotel and the city.
