adequate stay

adequate studio clean room handy kitchenette cramped kitchen poor design limited space
the studio room was adequate. it was also clean. the room included a kitchenette plus tables with chairs and a sofa.
i booked an apartment. the layout of the kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom was cramped plus poorly designed. there was not enough space to move around comfortably, and we kept bumping into things.

great location comfortable bed easy access bad lighting poor hygiene disengaged staff
the location was amazing. it was near many great places like the tower bridge. tube lines were just a few steps away. the bed was super comfortable.
the room had really bad lighting and switches. hygiene was not great. i found dried poop on the underside of my toilet bowl. staff could be more engaging.

Mixed feelings about the stay

small room inadequate lighting
The location was convenient with easy access to transportation.
The room felt quite small and lacked basic amenities. There was no daily cleaning service unless staying more than seven days. I also found the room lighting to be inadequate and the switches confusing to use (it was a bit frustrating).
