Zedwell Piccadilly Circus
Location was great; everything else was NOT. They are like the cheapest of the cheap airlines that nickel and dime you for everything: $80 for a few hours of early checkin, $25 for holding your bag, no fresh towels or linens for a 5 night stay, no garbage removal, no coffee, no nothing!

Sea Containers London
Great location. Super comfy bed, best shower! We had an incredible view of the river. Staff was helpful and friendly. The only thing they could improve is to increase menu options in all of their restaurants. Recommend and would return.
