My wife and I stayed here in July '19. A taxi from the airport is around 12 Euro (we rounded it up to 15 - he was happy). Taxis are cheap, don't be afraid to use them, they are safe and honest.
The room was very clean and comfortable and the breakfast selection was superb but why, oh why can't hotels cook bacon?! They all (in our experience) leave it to stew in a bath of fatty water that renders it inedible. Pro tip: among the cold cuts is a very nice sliced ham that goes very well with the scrambled eggs but get the eggs when they first arrive on the table. Anyone wanting a healthy breakfast will not be disappointed. The hotel is within walking distance of the Tower (20 minutes). There is not much around the hotel - stay on the other side of the river for many more bars and restaurants. That being said, there is Ali Baba Kebab just down the road. It has a limited but good menu and the beer is COLD and a quarter of the price you'll pay at the hotel and they're open on Sunday.
We took a day trip to Rome, First Class on the train - Book carefully and it's worth it. The station is a five minute walk from the hotel.
