Cannon Street

Staff are doing a great job during COVID problems

Toilets are unclean. This is not the third world (yet) so would have assumed that with regards to cleanliness and public hygiene this would be impeccable. Otherwise station staff friendly

I’m going to review the features within this train station and then give my overall review. Starting with: Services: The members of staff within the station are pretty helpful. I find them easy to talk to and especially helpful when I’m looking for information about incoming trains or underground information. The departure boards within this station are also well spread out within each platform in addition to the central departure board that attracts the masses. Size: This station is pretty big and even bigger when compared to the other nearby train stations such as Bank and St Pauls. Its size also allows it to have services within it such as tea and coffee shops within the station in addition to toll-free toilets and an easy access way to the underground. But I like how wide spread the crowds are during peak hours as this reduces the dreaded bottle necking that takes place when trains arrive or depart. Hygiene: Not only does this station look good from the outside and in, but it’s also pretty clean for the most part. You rarely see any rubbish within the station, however, it would be nice if the gents toilets were also held up to the same standard. Summary: This station is pretty awesome. Sure it gets really crowded during the peak times, but the same can be said for all London train stations – it’s just that with this one, it’s usually a lot easier to traverse through the crowds compared to other stations, plus the crowds aren’t all funnelled in a bottle neck either.
