Very conveniently located for transport links and local cafes & restaurants. Simple to get into central London by tube or bus. It suits me because I travel to & from Paddington and it's just a short walk to the hotel.

Breakfast was good. Rooms were average, with clean beds and clean showers. We stayed here just for one night to be close to the Heathrow express to head back to the airport. No elevator. I didn't see that in the description as it was worded differently. The staff was very nice and tried to help us as one of our people was handicap and could not walk up that many flights. Let us keep the bulky items down in the lobby and gave us a room on the 1st floor.

Great location. Cramped rooms and outdated bathroom. No elevators or working fans in rooms (not even in bathroom). Anticipated small room size and walk up due to price, but the lack of ventilation was tough.

Close to Paddington station, nice clean rooms and general area. Beds a bit dated and bathrooms are really tight still very clean. Plenty of choices healthy and favorites at breakfast. Water in the bathroom not being potable freaked my daughter out but there is a water filing station on the first floor. We were on 3rd floor, last set of stairs had an attic like feel. All in all enjoyed our short stay and breakfast.

The woman at check in didn’t look up from what she was doing despite that I was standing three feet away. I had to finally ask her if I was in the right place for check in. The room was very clean. The twin beds are smaller than a regular twin bed - think more the size of a cot. The bathroom was super clean but super tiny. There was good water pressure in the shower and plenty of hot water. The tv had only … maybe 4 channels - one being the shopping channel. The remote didn’t work. The breakfast was mediocre. Luke warm Scrambled eggs, boiled eggs, cold cereals, waffles, beans, toast, some fruit, plain yogurt and watered down juice, tea and coffee. Internet was soooo slow. You could pay a premium for faster internet. The noise and vibration from the train!!! Awful! Very bad! Location is good but overall I would recommend spending a bit more and staying in a better spot. The hotels in the area are in abundance.
