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!

We had to wait for our room to be ready, & the bathroom floor had NOT been mopped plus the booking was not the room I had paid for in ADVANCE.
