Nice hotel, bit over priced

Hotel is nice, staff is friendly and helpful. Hotel is located near Abby Road, and there are a number of restaurants and bars within a few blocks. Overall, however, it's unremarkable.
Basic internet access is 15 gpb (~$25 US at time of writing) -- price it in if you expect to be able to connect. Or turn right and walk two blocks up the street and you will find a bar that offers free Wi-Fi if you buy a drink.
Overall, the hotel was fine but a bit over priced when internet access is considered. Consider the Grange Holborn hotel -- we moved there because it was closer to the train we needed, but it was nicer, cheaper, and was closer to stuff to do (two blocks from British Museum).
Great value

This hotel is housed in an older building where the lobby, dining facilities and room bathrooms seem to have been recently remodeled. The rooms are still "older", but still very comfortable and clean. The service at this hotel is excellent as well as the breakfast buffet. What a great value for families! The neighborhood is not great, but still not bad. A small supermarket is just a view buildings down and food and other vendors are all along the street. The subway station is only 5 minutes away. The only disappointment was that the pool opened too early in the evening for our kids to enjoy it, the one night we tried to go, it was at max capacity and we weren't allowed in.
We would definetely stay here again!
Good Value, Great Staff

The staff was wonderful, the hotel was a good value for its cost. The facilities were clean and the restaurants and bars attached to the hotel had good food. I would stay here again. The only negative is that local phone calls costs 1 pound per minute and we were not informed until checkout about the charges, but other than that the hotel was great, I would recommend it to family and friends. It was a short distance to the tube and bus lines. There is a grocery store and ATM one block up and you are a short distance from central london and all the attractions.
EXCELLENT FOR THE MONEY

You really can't beat this hotel for the money. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. The hotel staff was very professional and accomodating. Our reservations were wrong and they corrected it as soon as posible. They provided washcloths as a standard. The tube station is only a short walk. Location was geat in terms of pubs and a grocery store. I would definitely stay there again. As with any neighborhood, you have to take precautions but I felt very safe.

We were promised a room w/3 beds. Upon arrival, we were told there no such rooms in the hotel. We finally got a room with 2 beds. However, they told us that we would have to move to another room (of the same type) in 2 days. When it came time for the move, they changed the time so that it conflicted with our touring. We were also told misinformation about the underground and location of attractions several times. Also, the hotel is in a horrible part of London. Close to the underground, but no food worth eating anywhere around & an unsafe neighborhood at night.
