The room was clean and nest and the staff always friendly and helpful.
The room was quite small but obviously, that cannot be changed.
Very easy access to all means of transport across London and beyond. Street, however, was very quiet which was great.
I would highly recommend this hotel with the reminder to be aware of room size.

The location is the key factor with the Alhambra. The rooms are strikingly small with no cooling, so you have to put a fan (supplied by hotel) on all night with the windows open (and no screens). Bathrooms are inappropriately small for anyone who is large. Just enough room to turn around, and the sink is in you lap when seated on the toilet. My mattress had a distinct crater in the center that made sleeping uncomfortable. Overall, it had a definate "budget" feeling to it.

Very tiny room.(only stayed one night and left at 3.30am so didn’t matter) Clean and tidy. It was on the3rd floor with small staircase and across road from main hotel. We were told but didn’t realise no lift.
Staff friendly.
