difficult climate control weak shower pressure
The location was great. The room itself was not as excellent. The climate control was difficult to manage, and the room was either too hot or too cold! I also noticed some wear and tear on the furniture. The bathroom was clean, though the shower pressure was weak.

Acceptable stay, but some issues noted

dirty bathroom small lifts
The bathroom was not cleaned to an acceptable standard. I found hairs on the shower walls. The bedroom was also quite small. There was very little space to move around the bed. The small lifts resulted in excessive waiting times.

excellent location close proximity quiet room
i found the location excellent. it was very close to trafalgar square. i also appreciated how close it was to the tube station. the room was quiet even though it was in a central spot.
i found a few small spots of mold on the bathroom ceiling paneling. the paneling looked like it might collapse. the taps were tarnished.
