The building is in a pleasant street and is close to supermarkets, a Tube station, bus stops, and other facilities, such as restaurants and a post office. Staff were friendly and helpful at checkin and checkout. My basic single room had all I needed for a few days in London, and was clean and bright. I noticed larger rooms for two or more people, that had more floor space but still the same basic decor. The cupboard kitchen was equipped with small fridge, sink, microwave, and two burners, plus all the basic cooking utensils needed. The bathroom was capsule style, but was clean and adequate. I didn't expect a large luxurious room, but was very happy with the Aston's room. Only drawback was that the room was at the top of the house, under the roof, and in a London heatwave, was quite warm, even at night. However, it did mean my hand washing - hung on the shower rail - dried quickly. I would recommend this hotel for its location and good value for money in an expensive city.
