I stayed here for one night as London was a stopover between locations. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom was fine, and the check in staff was courteous and helpful. If that’s all you’re looking for in a hotel that’s a close walk to Paddington, this will work for you. If you want some amenities or to feel like you’re staying in a nice place, I’d look elsewhere. Good hotel for the money for a bed and a shower. I left too early for breakfast.

The staff was kind, the hotel was clean, and we enjoyed the Paddington area. The room conveniently fit 5 ppl. It’s close to the train and tube stations and there are nice dining options. If you’re touring, make sure to see the famous man in the clock a few blocks away! Unfortunately the lift (elevator) was out to service when we were there but luckily we were on the first floor. I would stay here again with my family.

Disliked: Cleanliness
On appearance, everything looked pretty good until we were attacked by bedbugs in the middle of the night, my wife found a bedbug, actually crawling on her and was eaten all over her arm. I told the staff about it in the morning, didn’t seem too shocked.
