Stayed 2 nights

The property was well located with convenience stores and several places to eat nearby. Our rooms were cleaned daily and fresh towels supplied. The staff were all very helpful and friendly. We had a comfortable stay. While it looked as though rooms were recently decorated the carpets were very tired and in need of refreshing or deep clean. Our shower was over a bath which meant my husband could not use it. However we would stay again if in London for one or two nights as it represents good value overall.

Local shops incl Sainsbury’s. Walked to Emirates Stadium (28 minutes). Quiet, basic but fair value. Bought a lovely breakfast on my walk back to Angel tube station (20 minute walk)
