Excellent stay near Southwark Station

friendly staff clean room comfortable bed
The staff was genuinely friendly. The room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. I found the room was fully equipped and had plenty of space for my belongings.
The room was slightly smaller than expected, yet still adequate for a comfortable stay.

reliable stay NEAR THE UNDERGROUND

quick check-in comfortable bed extra pillow good shower
check-in was quite quick and simple. the room featured a good size, I FOUND. the bed was comfortable, and an extra pillow was available. the shower offered a good water flow and temperature. I left my bags after checkout for later sightseeing.
the bathrooms seem like flimsy portable toilet style cupboards WITHOUT noise insulation. the sink showed a permanent stain in the basin. the sink drain had a bad smell. the reception area felt DINGY upon arrival.

poor communication unrefreshed bathroom
The breakfast buffet had a really extensive selection, useful.
The check-in process was not smooth. The staff didn't communicate clearly, and I waited around unsure of what was happening. the bathroom could have been cleaner. It seemed like it had not been properly refreshed.
