The flight on British Airways was fine, although cramped with perfectly rubbish food but a couple of free Glenlivets and only $820 RT Boston to London so an overall pass. Underground dropped off a short walk from the hotel which is in nice neighborhood. There is a lift, which is always a plus. Whilst small, the room is very clean. Has a gizmo to boil water for the in-room tea, a microwave and a mini-fridge. Pressure is good in the shower and the double bed appears comfy, although after the past 24 hours I could probably sleep on the floor. There is even a loft for two more people to sleep although they would have to be children with the low ceiling but for a young couple it would suffice for a night or two. And I got a pretty nice rate for in London.
You can see it on the left. My room looks out on the flowering tree in the photo.
