Once we entered our hotel room at the Holiday Inn Express Hotel we were pretty amazed by the overall appearance of the room. 

PROS

Samsung TV and desk in our room

 + The room was well lit due to its large window (during the day) or due to all the lamps in the room (during night time) and pretty spacious (honestly the space between the 2nd bed and the window could have served me as a dance floor...hehe).

+ The beds were super comfy as well!

 + The choice of dark blue accents in the room added a sophisticated and royal touch to the mostly white room.

+ The bathroom was especially enjoyable with its huge shower cabin surrounded by black tiles.

CONS

- The (only) con to this hotel would have to be its location. The hotel was located near the Heathrow Airport. In order to get to London's city centre you had to take a bus (the Hotel Hoppa) to the airport's Terminal 5 and then take the underground Picadilly Line. A journey of approximately 90 minutes (and more depending on rush hour conditions). 

Taking this one downfall aside, the hotel really was a great place to stay at during our trip. Definitely recommending this hotel!
