We had a 5 night stay. By the time we realized (& hotel offered to move our room) it was more hassle than was worth it. The housekeeping door immediately adjacent to our room, SLAMMING at ALL hours of day AND Night. The thermostat control may have been from 1922. No real ability to regulate the temperature in the room. Either cold and warm during the night, or the reverse. Location to kill for.

Pros (+) Excellent location just off the Strand. Friendly and helpful staff, and great breakfast included in my stay.
Cons (-) Rooms are a little small. Also not much of an open lounge area for waiting around or hanging out, but tight space is to be expected for the location.

Pros (+) We traveled in from Heathrow and the hotel was close to the underground stop. Easy walking distance to all major landmarks. Staff was friendly and helpful and the breakfast in the morning was awesome.
Cons (-) the 110 outlet in our room had a plug broken into it making it unusable.
