Great location for Bud gardens!
Hotel was fine. Sandman has just taken it over and is improving. Only complaint about room is that the carpet needs to be replaced. Tons of stains and doesn’t look great. Unfortunately the hotel is located in downtown London where there is a lot of homelessness and many people were openly doing hard drugs.

The property is right beside a very large homeless encampment. There were probably 20-30 homeless people roaming around the hotel property. We saw individuals shooting up drugs, fighting, screaming, even yelling at us as we walked past them to get our Uber. One of the elevators was not working which only left one elevator working to use, and the stairs are not able to be accessed from the lobby. The parking was easy, but not secure. We watched multiple homeless people walk into the garage and in and around the cars. When I brought it to the attention of the front desk they brushed me off and said they do walks down there every couple hours… but then didn’t go and do anything at all. Overall I would recommend you stay FAR AWAY from this hotel!!
