The hotel's location was convenient for accessing local shops and eateries. The room was clean, it had plenty of furniture. The cooked vegetarian breakfast was delicious. I found it generous each morning.
It was DIFFICULT to find reception. I was asked to pay a £20 deposit. It was refunded later. The room was not serviced .

convenient location clean room
i appreciated the close proximity to the waterloo music bar. it made attending the music weekend quite easy. the room was clean. a downstairs restaurant with a buffet setup proved very convenient.
the room felt quite basic. the shower was not properly enclosed and leaked near the doorway, this made the floor wet. there was rarely anyone at reception.
