The hotel's location is excellent, right on the tube line to Whitechapel station and in the best area for the sites I wanted to see. The rooms are spacious with very comfortable beds, but it lacks a couch or club chair to sit on. The air conditioning works well, and there is a decent view. The service is efficient, and they offer dry cleaning. The dining experience includes delicious homemade cakes. The facilities are modern and well-maintained, offering everything needed for a comfortable stay.
