The hotel is about 7 min walk from 2 subways stops and fast food stores. It’s a half block to Kensington park. The new refurbished rooms very clean. The room is very small and scaffolding at the front of hotel as refurbishing continues but noise was not a factor. Staff was slow at responding to requests made on what’s app communication tool so better off walking down and talking to in person to get immediate resolve. Breakfast available for 15 pounds in morning ( did not try) but you have to go elsewhere for other meals. No vending machines on site. But very new and clean in refurbished rooms. Hairdryer, fridge, kettle, soap, shampoo, body lotion, tea, coffee, ac and personal fan and safety deposit box.
