the location was acceptable and close to the tube station.
the club atrium room felt small. i expected more space considering what i paid. also, the staff seemed disinterested and the service was definitely slow. it's like they just didn't care much about the guests.

the rooms decor were lovely. the location near the underground station worked well.
the room i got was really dark, it was not easy to see things even when i turned on all the lights. i felt the rooms and bathroom should have had better lighting. this made doing makeup a bit of a struggle.

The location was excellent. It was close to the tube station. the room had a kitchenette and a comfortable mattress. the quality of the bed linen stood out. the automatic login for returning guests using the toh app was convenient.
