The hotel was not bad. It was the first time that I had ever stayed in a hotel that didn't have a bathroom in the room. If you have ever stayed in a dorm, then its the same concept. So it was ok. The room itself wasn't that appealing, but serves its purpose. Bed was hard and uncomfortable, but I really didn't care since I was only there to sleep and shower. It was actually quite hot in the room so I "rented" a fan from the front desk. There was black duct tape on the floor holding the carpet down! This was actually funny because you know what they say, "duct it or chuck it!" Apparently it wasn't bad enough to get rid of yet!
It was pretty quiet since I may have been the only one down that particular hallway....which meant that I had the bathroom to myself! The only time it was loud was Friday and Saturday when the in-hotel pub had live bands play. Even that didn't bother me since it was all part of the experience of being in London/Picadilly Circus.
Unique Qualities: The lobby is nice and clean. Tour companys always come pick you up in this hotel since it is in a great location. Plus there are 3 places to eat in the hotel. First there is a pub, then a fish and chips resteraunt, and don't forget the cafe. Of course, there is always a gift shop for you to spend you money in as well.
