All rooms include a private bathroom with a shower, a flat-screen TV, electric kettle, and tea/coffee-making facilities. Room types include single, double, twin, triple, and quadruple. Some rooms have been renovated with newer bathrooms and improved furnishings, while others are older with dated décor, worn carpets, and thin pillows. Street-facing rooms can be very noisy due to traffic and ambulance sirens, with windows that do not fully block sound or light. Rooms at the back of the building tend to be quieter. Some rooms are compact, especially single and some lower-floor twins, and may lack a table, chair, or bedside storage. Bed types include double and twin options; some quadruple rooms have a double and a single bed. All rooms have windows. The hotel provides an adapter for type C plugs at reception.

The breakfast costs £10 per person, payable on arrival or daily. The buffet includes freshly toasted bread, pastries, coffee, tea, juice, and a selection of cereals and meats.
