Location is great but no A/C in the room. We all felt hot all night.. we had to sleep with the windows open to try to get some breeze. Maybe great hotel during cooler season, but not for summer months.

Our room smelled very badly, like moisture or mildew. There was a soaking wet towel sitting on our toilet when we arrived. The room did not look like the image of the room I selected when booking. They were fully booked so we couldn’t move to a different room. I would not stay here again, but the location was good relative to the train.

I just wish they would have ac or better fans available to guests. We where hot .

Listen, I know what I booked... we had a 14 hour layover and needed something close to Paddington Station. It is not a bad place, just don't expect too much. Check in was easy and the staff were very nice and helpful. No air conditioning but there was a nice oscillating fan we plugged in. The room had 3 beds. It was a tight fit but fine for just a long layer place to crash. The bathroom door fell off when we touched it (came out of the screws).

This hotel is situated very close to Paddington station with train lines and underground available. It is located in an enclave of hotels situated around a London town square which is available to the public and offers a nice close green space. This hotel is obviously older in style and presentation with very steep narrow stairs to access upper floors and no lift available. So be warned if you are not agile or carrying very heavy bags. I stayed in a single room which like London hotels was very small in size approximately 8 square metres. The hotel is evidently showing its age in terms of common areas and signs of wear and tear, and other than the small reception area, there appears to be little other available public space. The room was clean with a comfortable bed and the ensuite has been renovated in recent times and was well presented with contemporary decor. The staff on the front counter do not appear to have much sense of hospitality, seemingly being indifferent to customers with no smiles, no engagement in conversation or welcome vibes. Business was conducted via them remaining seated behind the counter and nothing offered by way of engagement, information provision or offers of assistance. Perhaps hospitality is not their forte. If you are in London and planning to be out and about the majority of the time, then this hotel will do the job. If you are looking for ambience or a nice aesthetic appeal, then this is probably not the place for you.

Very convenient location

Friendly helpful staff. Clean and well kept property. No lift, no AC and poor water pressure at the top floor. It was ok for the price.

Like a throw back to the 70s. Booked a room as the trains were being cancelled so thought I would just get a room til the morning. Big mistake. Firstly the room they gave me was around 7ft by 5 (that included the shower!) nothing more than a cupboard. So when I asked for another they gave me a top floor room which was larger. The room was like all of them, hadn’t been updated for at least 40 years. Fan was broke and tv remote was too. Hotel worker did his best and walked up and down the four flights of stairs (no lifts!) to try and help. I’m the end decided to leave after 3 hour and get the train. Too depressing! Hate leaving bad reviews but they need to spend some money!

I really liked the location of the hotel. It was a few minutes walk from the train station and there were many restaurants and newsagents across the road and nearby. The room had everything I needed including plenty of towels, toiletries, hair dryer and excellent lighting. The only downside is the very small size of the room. It is a boxroom within which they installed an ensuite bathroom! There was hardly any space to walk and I struggled to move in the bathroom. It was a little claustrophobic. Another issue was that there was no lift. I had a heavy luggage and my room was in the 2 and half floor. Each floor had a lot of stairs and stairway was quite narrow.
