Hotel Details

Location

The apartment is a short walk from St. Paul's Cathedral and Cannon Street station, placing it in central London.
The entrance is squeezed in an obscure corner between two pubs and a Subway sandwich shop. The square outside is a known gathering spot, and the immediate area can feel unsafe at night. The location is convenient for sightseeing and public transport, but the walk from the station passes through a crowded pub frontage. Delivery trucks servicing nearby cafes start early in the morning, adding to the noise.

Dining

The apartment has a basic kitchenette, but the microwave often does not work, and there are no sockets to plug in the kettle.
The location offers a wide variety of chain dining options within a 0.5 km walk, including Chilango, Darwin Brasserie, The Don Restaurant, and LEON. However, the cooking smell from the Subway shop below is constant, and the kitchen equipment is unreliable. Guests wanting to self-cater will find the kitchen frustrating to use.

Amenities

Wi-Fi is listed but often does not work. There is no reception; all communication is by phone or email only.
Email support is unreliable and rarely answered on weekends. Check-in requires sending scans of your passport and credit card before arrival, a process many find intrusive. The deposit refund can take a week. There is no lift, and the four flights of stairs are narrow and steep. Luggage storage is not offered. The phone line is often not answered, and when it is, staff are described as rude and unhelpful. No daily housekeeping or fresh towels are provided.

Critical Operational Notes

  • Check-in is a multi-step process requiring scanned copies of ID and credit card sent online before arrival.
  • A security deposit of up to £250 is required upfront, and the refund process can be slow.
  • Access codes are often sent only a few hours before check-in or not at all; you will likely need to call to obtain them.
  • Apartments are above a Subway sandwich shop and next to a busy pub, leading to cooking smells and street noise.
  • The stairwell carpets are described as dirty and off-putting; there is no lift.
  • No soap or basic toiletries are provided.
