Zedwell Piccadilly Circus
A bed for the night with a good shower. Convenient location. Otherwise no redeeming features. The closest thing to a youth hostel masquerading as a hotel. But what we expected.

The Drey - Kensington, Earl's Court
The room was too small; there was little room to move around or store your luggage. The room was very clean with really nice bath towels. It was walking distance to restaurants for food.

The gym was dark and could be cleaner. Some broken equipment
