The Cube Ealing is a new student accomodation. It has decent facilities in house at the moment. The room sizes could have been better for twin rooms, at present ,one of the beds is too close to kitchen shelve. The laundary is a bit expensive. The connectively to central London is just 20min away in tube(picaddily line). The lady at the reception is very sweet and is honest in her suggestions most of the times and genuinely consideres to solve the problem if any.
