Comfortable hotel in a good location. Beds in particular were very comfortable and the bathroom was bigger and better than expected. Staff very helpful, particularly since the room had not been 'made-up' when I arrived and the Manager had to step in to give it a deep clean and bedding change as housekeeping had failed to do so.

Very helpful staff. Clean environment. Very accessible. The challenge is there is no lift so it is a bit of a challenge to get to the upper floors.

I had a double room with unsuited bathroom. The bed was comfortable, the hot water reliable, and the atmosphere was quiet and relaxed. I won't mention the joy of dragging my luggage up 6 flights of stairs 😆, but lack of a lift is to be expected at moderate-priced London hotels. Location was great, right next door to Borough tube station, and a short walk to Borough Market, the Globe Theater, and Tate Modern. Would stay again.

The room was good, couldn’t hear anyone else. Superking deluxe room is just two singles pushed together which was frustrating as they kept sliding apart and there was someone’s takeaway left in a shelf in the cupboard from the person staying before.
Otherwise it was good

It was okay. Nothing special, the hallways were grubby and rooms were smaller than they looked on the website. Apart from that it good for a one night stay.

Value for money option. No lights shining in from outside or blinking in the room (other than necessary). Surprisingly quiet. I was apprehensive about the mobile phone operated door lock but it worked without a hitch. The room was basic but bed and sink in the room clean.

Nice clean room, with everything you could need, and right next to the Underground entrance. Wouldn't like to carry a heavy suitcase up the stairs though.
