I highly recommend this hotel, especially for fellow Americans who are used to bigger rooms and bigger beds. This hotel seemed fairly new, clean and everything was perfect. The prices could not be beat and they are within walking distance of 3 major train stations and the tube.

Very good location, tranquil streets, safe and close to the Tube, grocery store, restaurants and cafés. A nice contrast to the hustle and bustle of central London.
