 Prior to coming I was a little apprehensive due to some negative reviews It is true the rooms do need a little refurb but for us it wasn t a big deal as we literally just needed somewhere to sleep There was also a little note in the room stating that refurb is taking place The room was OK Nothing special but fairly clean The shower was either very hot or very cold a bit difficult to get a hold of Wasn t much to choose from mini bar Also upon arrival were given the wrong room but that got sorted out fairly quickly 
 The hotel was very modern and the staff at the reception were very friendly The location was perfect as we were eating at the shard that night The room wasn t massive but was perfect for us Even thought we didn t use it I liked the fact there was a coffee machine available All in all good shout for what we paid especially the location Also didn t need to pay for parking as we found some free spaces round the corner
