I had and extremely enjoyable stay at 69TheGrove. Check in was easy. I stayed in a room in the building across the street where breakfast was served between 8 and 9 daily (full, cooked breakfast during the week and Saturday). My room was clean, fresh, and in decent repair (door handle in bathroom loose but functional). There were fresh roses and a small refrigerator with set-up for tea/coffee/hot chocolate in the room. I had requested a fan with my booking and it was in the room. The small fridge had water and soft drinks in it for purchase. Bed was comfortable. The bathroom is cozy and fatter people may find it cramped. I found the room the perfect size for me as a solo traveler but one of my fellow guests thought the rooms were too small. Cleanliness never an issue. Location is close to tube stations at Vauxhall or Oval and numerous bus stops. Small area on the roof for smokers as facility is nonsmoking. I found the rooftop to be a plant-filled, calm space to eat my take-away meals (I do not smoke). Breakfasts very fillling and there was always fresh mixed fruit, yogurt, cereals, and orange juice on the table. Hot breakfast included options for full English breakfast, omlettes, or porridge. Tea and coffee were offered almost instantly once one sat down for the meal. Staff is delightful and highly competent. A lovely, first-class operation!
