When I look back at my stay in the hotel that is the thing that stands out my wife and I were in an "executive twin" which was one of the relatively fiew with air conditioning this mostly offset the fact that even in July the hotel was heateded like a sauna. A colleague was in much smaller room a "twin" he had no AC and suffered greatly from the heat rvrm eoyj yjr window open the few inches it would go.
When I booked the room I opted for the executive twin option not haviuing any idea what the difference was but as it wasnt a huge difference in money decided it was a good bet to keep my wife in a good mood as we were in London for a special ocasion. In the process of booking the "executive rather than the normal twin I missed the small proint that said that this did not include Breakfast so ended up paying an extra £20 per day for breakfast.
If it hadnt been for the heat and the iritation at the extra breakfast cost I would have enjoyed my stay at the hotel.
Hotel staff were not interested in my complaints about the heat I am sure they had heard them many times before.
Maybe in the winter it would be a better bet??

I stayed here last week, and rather like you I found it far too hot. So much so that even with the fan on and the window open I still could not get cool. I found 5 cold showers a day helped ;o)

Well done on your first review - I'm a newbie too - but can I just say you should really try and check your spelling!! There are several glaringly wrong ones in the review which detracts from what's written. When I do longer reviews I do them in Word then copy and paste onto the review page. That way you can use spellcheck!! tc x Sal x
