Acceptable Location , DISAPPOINTING Service

convenient locationrestrictive vouchersdisrespectful treatment
The location was acceptable , near the Farringdon Elizabeth tube station.
The hotel staff told me I was disrespectful for enjoying a snack from a local café outside the hotel. They insisted I buy a drink from their bar if I wanted to sit there. I also tried using vouchers for a coffee in the bar , BUT they only accepted them for alcoholic drinks.

Quiet stay near Charterhouse Square

I appreciated the hotel's location near Charterhouse Square. The staff was kind and accommodating, and my room was clean. The hotel is just outside the busy city center. The room itself was modern and maintained well.
The check-in felt somewhat impersonal, lacking a warm welcome.
