The hotel has its ups and downs. The rooms felt a bit cramped, not much space to move around comfortably, but they were available at short notice within the hotel. The service was friendly and kind, with lovely decorations at the front office. The location is a real plus, super close to Russel Square underground station and within walking distance to many restaurants, museums, and theatres. Dining options nearby are convenient. However, the rooms could use more space, and the dining choices are somewhat limited.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The room was clean and adequate for our needs, but it was tiny with too many stairs. The service, however, was a real highlight with helpful and kind staff. The location was convenient, surrounded by cafes, shops, and transportation options. The dining options were satisfactory, but I wished there were more choices. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.

The hotel offers clean and comfortable rooms with a peculiar stench and narrow blankets. The staff is super friendly and helpful, making the stay a great pleasure. It's conveniently located in the heart of London, perfect for short stays near Euston station. While dining options are limited, the hotel provides a clean and convenient experience at a reasonable price.

I stayed at a hotel that was clean, comfortable, and had friendly staff. The rooms were in a second premises, with traditional furniture, clean, and surprisingly quiet despite being in a maze-like building with condensation issues. The location was excellent, near eateries, bus stops, and Russell Square station, but away from the noise. The dining experience was convenient with discounts at nearby cafes, but limited options despite the discounts. However, the journey to get hot water was an inconvenience.

I found the hotel to be a mixed experience. The rooms were small but cosy and clean, which was nice, but being on the 3rd floor without AC or a fan made it quite warm. Unfortunately, sharing a wall with the shared toilet and shower meant I could hear sounds from all 4 rooms using them. If I could go back, I would choose a different side or a floor lower to avoid this issue.

The hotel is located in the heart of Bloomsbury, just a few minutes' walk from Russell Square tube station, making it convenient for transportation.
