It was fine. The room was comfortable enough. Was incredibly slow check-in, and room service didn't arrive prior to 5 pm so we skipped I, which is fine just not expected. The good thing was the cafe next door, good coffee and food and nice staff.

Staff were welcoming and helpful. It was a convenient spot for where I wanted to go. The room was clean and maintained throughout the visit.

A very large hotel, just off Russell Square and only a few minutes walk from Russell Square tube station. The hotel was busy and seemed popular with international visitors. The room was comfortable and had all the amenities you need. The washbasin in the bathroom was a bit small and the tap quite high (good for filling water bottles), but if you're not careful you will splash water everywhere. Staff didn't mention breakfast at check-in. I don't think I booked it, but a reminder about breakfast could have been useful, although there are plenty of shops nearby. Some of the decor in communal areas and corridors is quite dated, but rooms themselves are in better condition.
