Very friendly and very helpful staff. A little bit noisy as I had a road facing room on the ground floor and the residents above me were heavy footed on the wooden flooring! Not enough to put me off staying again though.

Not recommended
Buisness stay.. Stayed here because my regular hotel was already booked up. On arrival, I found out that the owner had already attempted to take money from my account to pay for the room, even though I had booked pay on arrival. He then proceeded to attempt to take money again, even though I had told him that I wanted to use a different card. I asked about parking my car and he told me it was £10 which I paid to then find out that it would’ve cost me 20p to pack my car out on the street outside the hotel. The owner failed to tell me this because he made more money from making his customers park within his grounds. The room that was allocated to me was small and it was not clean very dusty. The property is very dated and tired will not be stopping here again and I would not recommend it It is also a 10 minute walk to any shops to be able to get food.

Perfect post-theatre stay
Loved it here, super handy for an overnight after the theatre. Quick and easy walk to/from the station, rooms were nice if a little bit cramped. Really friendly staff, would definitely stay here again.

Endearing and humble
A charming, old-school place, just right for an overnight stay when you need it. One disappointment: at time of writing, this hotel does not offer breakfast, although I believe this is still on the listing. Overall, a pleasant, comfortable and quiet experience, in a convenient south London location.

Not the best place I’ve ever stayed
Good location, decent price and the room was nice. But the bed was uncomfortable - I could feel the springs in my side - and we only had one small thin pillow each. It was pretty hot in there, despite the fan being on (which was very loud), and it was only about 22 degrees that day. All in all not a great night’s sleep!
