I arrived fairly later on into the evening as a lone female business traveller. On arrivial the two gentlemen on reception were polite but fairly intense, I was requested to provide ID for them to scan, as a UK resident I do not have to do that and I was not confident for that information to be kept on file. One of the young men also follwed me upto my room, opened my room for me and walked inside to show me the mini-bar, which I hadnt asked for and as a solo female traveller I found quite offputting. Not what I needed at 11pm and I did have to ask him to leave. The room was tidy but overall run down and grubby, bathroom shower and sink needed a wipe doen before use and the hotel linen had marks I guess from long-term use.Hotel is on Shaftsbury avenue which is a fairly noisy road, luckily I had my own ear plugs which helped and is something I would highly recommend. Overall this is 3 star standard, its expensive for what it is and I know of other hotels in the area that are nicer standard, less intense reception staff and overall better value money for the price I paid. Probably wont be back.
