My 12 hour stay!
I was attending a function at the lord's cricket ground in the evening, and needed somewhere convenient to stay that was not too expensive. the hotel is opposite lord's. i also had to leave at 5am the following morning in order to catch a train back to manchester, so this was not a long stay. for the length of time i was in the hotel i suppose it was hardly "budget"! however, everything was as i would have expected, and not having breakfast included was ideal, as this would have added further expense to my short stay. checking in was quick and easy and the staff were friendly and helpful. the room was an executive room, which exceeded expectations. it was very comfortable, clean, and all conveniences were there - tea/coffee bottled water. there were numerous tv channels, although if i was being really picky, sky sports would have been nice!! having said that, i arrived at 4.30 in the afternoon, and left at 5am, so it was only the news that i tuned into. i didn't take advantage of wifi, but was surprised this was only available in reception and bar areas. the following morning, the concierge organised a taxi for me which ensured i got to euston station in time for my train.
