The hotel offers a mix of comfort with a wonderfully huge bed but lacks privacy due to the nearby trains. The location is convenient, being close to Balham station, perfect for exploring London, and situated above a pub for added convenience. The dining options are varied, including Chinese cuisine, and the service, though with some mixed experiences with the manager, overall pleasant. The facilities provide a decent experience, meeting basic needs effectively.

What a gem! The hotel is ideally located, just over a pub which makes everything super convenient. The rooms are fantastic, boasting a wonderfully comfortable double bed and a spacious bathroom with a standalone bath. The service was a bit hit and miss, but the housekeeping team was efficient. Dining was included and the fresh cream cakes were a lovely touch. Overall a great stay with some minor drawbacks.

The hotel is located in a nice area over a pub, making it very convenient. The rooms are spacious, with a big comfortable bed, and a Nespresso coffee machine, but I found the pillows were not as comfy as I'd like. The service was a bit annoying during check-in but improved later. The location is convenient right near the underground. The dining experience included Indonesian dishes, which was a nice touch. Overall, it's a good value for money stay.

The hotel is super convenient, being right over a pub and close to Balham station for easy travel into London. The rooms are spacious with a large bathroom, but the blaring music can be a bit annoying. The service was great, except for a small hiccup with the manager. The location is very convenient next to a big supermarket, but being over a busy pub might not be ideal for everyone. The dining was included and the facilities were satisfactory.

I absolutely loved this hotel! The room was incredibly spacious with a Nespresso coffee machine and a wonderfully comfortable huge bed. The service was top-notch, except for a little hiccup with the manager. The location was perfect, especially being so close to Balham station for easy travels into London. The dining experience with home-made ice-cream was a delightful touch. Highly recommend staying here!

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and had a freestanding bath, which was a nice touch, but the AC was blasting loud music, which was quite annoying. The service from the manager was a bit of a letdown initially, but things improved later. The location was super convenient, right by the train station, but being located over a pub could be noisy. The dining was satisfactory, with sliced tropical fruits for breakfast. The facilities were decent overall.
