Ibis London Blackfriars

Upon checking in, I found that the room didn't provide disposable toiletries like toothbrushes and toothpaste, so I had to bring my own. The hotel environment is average, the decor is a bit old, and the room is small. The basic facilities are sufficient but not particularly comfortable. Its main advantage is its good location, being very close to Southwark tube station. It's convenient for visiting the London Eye and strolling along the River Thames, making it suitable for travelers who only need a place to sleep and plan to spend most of their time sightseeing.

The hotel's location is good, but they gave me an accessible room, which felt like staying in a hospital. I asked to change rooms, but the front desk staff seemed indifferent and insisted there was no difference except for the bathroom! If such arrangements are made, guests should be informed in advance, instead of just saying: 'This is the only room we have left.'

The mattress was comfortable, the room was very spacious, the windows could be opened, and it was quiet. It also had air conditioning.
