 The shower was poorly designed and water overflowed into the bathroom When we complained staff suggested rolling up a towel and putting it against the shower door It worked but clearly this is a longstanding problem A promised visit by the maintenance man failed to eventuate One of the reasons we booked the Adria was that the website lists airport shuttle We assumed this meant a shuttle is provided to Heathrow It isn t it means staff will ring you a taxi 
 The hotel is centrally located It s about five minutes walk from two tube stations and close to major attractions like the Natural History Museum the Victoria and Albert Museum and Hyde Park The staff were very welcoming and pleasant The hotel decor is beautiful the bed was comfortable and the air con was excellent
