Pros. Nice Room
Pros. Loved the room. Was comfortable and updated. Loved the advanced technology (nice TV and good wifi).
Cons. Location. It is a bit far from the things we wanted to see, but buses and the tube made it easy to get to where we wanted to go. Though it might take a while. Also, this neighborhood is made up up many many non-English speaking people and many traditionally dressed religious women only showing the eyes, which as a woman myself was really hurtful to see.
