"A perfect hotel. An amazing location—right next to Warren Street Station, with a Lidl across the street and coffee shops including Starbucks and McDonald's nearby. Most importantly, the staff is courteous. Complimentary drinks, fruit, and cookies are available in the lobby all day long.

"Pods (or ‘nests’) very comfortable. Excellent sound proofing. Was woken up by someone moving around in the nest below me but presumably they were a very tall person who couldn’t fit in properly. Enough room for a large backpack or small suitcase. Pack light. Bathrooms very quiet and clean. Very chilled atmosphere. Would definitely stay again. Ideal for a short London stay if you just need somewhere quiet and clean to crash. Excellent location. No free tea or coffee but vending machines and a Tesco across the road. A nice experience."

"Finding a 4-bed room was great! It was noisy from the road, but we brought a white-noise sound machine that drowned it out. They provided earplugs, but we didn’t need them due to sound machine we travel with. We asked for fans and got 2 of them. Shower had a modern half-glass look that wasn’t our thing because it made the floors wet. Ate in their pub, it was nice. Location was near a Tesco and a Pret A Manger so we could walk to get food and groceries. Overall, would totally recommend this hotel based upon our experience!"
