Agree-good lounge and very close to the underground

Just stayed at St Ermins this summer and it far exceeded our expectations. Great value for price. Comfortable room. Great location.

My two go-tos are the JW Marriott Grosvenor House on Park Ln (East side of Hyde Park in Mayfair) and the St. Ermin’s, 2 blocks from Westminster Abbey, 3 blocks from Parliament. I’ve spent over 400 nights between the two. As a tourist, St. Ermin’s will likely be a bit cheaper but it’s a solid property.

My least favorite major Marriott property is the County Hall. While it has a great view of Parliament - IF you get a room facing that way - across the river, most rooms are tiny.

Now the bank has tied my new law firm's accounts to the C corp's EIN and userid. The bank's phone support people say I need to wait until tomorrow to visit the branch. Until then, the C corp's owners, bookkeepers, and systems can access the law firm's IOLTA and general accounts.

I know a few of us like having a couple high dividend stocks that we sell calls against like T. I’ve just started a play like this on LUMN. Three reasons: 1) similar dividend to T but with a better (and improving!) balance sheet 2) growing free cash flow (but revenue is flat to down) 3) the technical set up has it breaking out of a multi-year decline. It’s also getting attention after the short squeeze play. Won’t be a screamer, but 10-12% income returns with the dividend plus CC could be nice.
