Zedwell Piccadilly Circus
The future of travel? You can check in and out without speaking to another human being... Pros: My room (single pod) was fine - small, as expected, with a nice bathroom area and sufficient hooks for hanging things as well as a raised flat area for bags and shoes. It seemed to be the cheapest place ...
