Funny thread!

A want a clean central hotel room...

Can't figure out how Oyster cards work...

What size is the hotel room?

It's a HOTEL you are not buying it and you probably aren't hosting a large party when you're there! Unless you are trying to jam more people into it than is allowed I think you can be fairly certain that the room will accommodate the # of people you have booked for. It will most likely not be a large as your house, so don't bring all your junk with you and then wonder why it won't all fit in the closet. Do you honestly need a huge place to "spread out"?? Do you come back to the hotel and throw yourself on the floor? Are you trying to use the kitchenette to host a dinner party for 12?
