I've stayed here twice now on business, and it definitely does the trick. Great access to two different tube stations and lines, walkable to much of what I needed, and some nice restaurants. The rooms have a bit of wear and tear (worn carpet, faint stains on the ceilings and walls from windows being open), and occasionally room service trays and other minor detritus are left for over 24 hours in the halls; but overall you know it's a safe and sufficient spot for rest and recharge.
