The hotel rooms had everything needed with a DAB smart speaker radio and flat-screen TV with Freeview channels. Despite the buzz in the bar and grill downstairs, the room was very quiet and cosy. The front desk service was excellent. However, the hotel staff, though helpful overall, had some periods of being not super helpful.

The hotel is in a great location, super close to everything in the City, Old Street, and Shoreditch. It is also very convenient for most parts of London, with various attractions within walking distance. However, the busy neighborhood sometimes made it challenging for guests to enjoy a drink at the hotel, as it was overrun by millennials taking advantage of the free WiFi and limited seating for residents.

The hotel offers very basic and not particularly inviting rooms, but they are spotlessly clean, which is crucial. On the bright side, the beds are super comfy, clean, and well-decorated. The service staff is polite and smiley, but there is room for improvement in customer interaction. The location is perfect for specific visits, with easy access to tube stations and a vibrant atmosphere. The dining experience may have some average aspects, but the restaurant food is top-notch. Overall, a decent value for money choice with room for enhancement in various aspects.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were simply designed but efficient, although there was a slight foul smell coming from the shower that was not addressed by the staff. The location was fantastic, surrounded by vibrant areas and buzzing with life, with easy access to tube stations for exploring. The service was polite but felt rehearsed, lacking a personal touch.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of cozy and quirky experiences. The well-designed rooms were comfortable with nice touches like a Roberts radio and unique toiletries, but the noise from neighboring rooms could be a downside. The service was incredible from start to finish, offering fantastic artisan coffee in the lobby, though the lack of a formed receptionist might be confusing for some. The location was perfect with a cool vibe and plenty of nearby bars and shops, making it a like a home away from home. The dining experience was average, with room service being a convenient option. Overall, a comfortable and memorable stay.

The hotel is a gem in the funky Shoreditch town, offering spacious, modern rooms that are ingeniously soundproofed for a blissful stay. The service is friendly and professional, although some staff may benefit from additional customer service training. The location is perfect for exploring the vibrant surroundings, but occasional disturbances from rowdy individuals can occur.

This hotel truly exceeded my expectations with its creatively designed rooms filled with balloons and a personal birthday message, interesting shelving, and fun lighting.
