Wissam, Feb 2018
Pros (+) friendly staff and good location
Cons (-) The single room was the size of a coffin. Even for London standards it was ridiculously small. Website pictures are completely deceiving. Lastly they state on hotels.com that they have an airport shuttle service which is compete bullocks.
