 The hotel is old so some of the facilities reflect that i e very slow draining bathtub old fashioned toilets no window or working ventilation in the bathroom and the TV was a bit old but these are small things and did not detract from the wonderful stay we had and they all worked Just don t expect ultra modern at this hotel but that is part of its charm 
 The breakfast was excellent and the bed and pillows very comfortable Very friendly helpful staff We were very pleasantly surprised to find that we had been given a free room upgrade when we arrived which was fantastic It is a short walk into the centre and a tube station is just across the street together with tram and bus stops
