Check-in WAS simple, and the staff were polite. The location is convenient as it is close to the O2 arena. I was grateful for a GOOD breakfast. The room was clean.

The air conditioning did not function correctly. The room felt too warm. This caused delays getting to and from the room. I had to use the stairs on one occasion.
