A simple room, super small shower, but for a cheap place to stay, it was worth the price. Also, the location is nice and close to shops, food and the train.

Having to pay £100 (holding fee) is not needed. Only hotel I’ve stayed at that does this. Not a fan of this method. Staff very friendly & would recommend. Great location as well. Fairly comfortable although you can hear what’s going on in the adjacent rooms.

Very small room, however is an ideal location for a very short stay. Staff woke us up at 12am telling off other guests next door. Not well handled. Overall for the price, there are better options available.

Good price compared with other hotels in central London and very close to all the transport links around Paddington station. Lovely reception staff. Room was great, comfy bed and crisp linen. Bathroom very small - everything you need and a good shower but it wouldn't suit a larger person. Door would benefit from more soundproofing - I could hear guests in the rooms opposite talking, but maybe I was unlucky and they were being particularly loud.

Room was unbearably hot. Aircon blew warm air. Asked for another room. This was accommodated. I was moved from the 4th floor (No lift) to the ground floor. This room was just as hot with the AC blowing hot even when you select cold. I found a new hotel and was refused my money back

On the plus, the room was immaculately clean, everything looked very new, and the bed was very comfy. I found the man on reception unwelcoming, and I am never impressed when a hotel reception says your room number out loud when you are a woman travelling solo. Need a company policy and training on this. It’s an old property, so no lifts (I was on the 4th floor but thankfully only an overnight bag). It is single glazed windows so a bit noisy, and not great sound proofing between rooms.

I have already tried to send comments to the hotel directly but have had no reply to my email so am having to review publicly which I wouldn’t normally do, I booked a ‘delux double room’ and requested a quiet room, I was given a room that was incredibly basic, had a noisy electric heater on the wall that rattled the light fitting, it shook every time a tube went past, the smell in the tiny bathroom was so bad I could barely use it, check in involved handing a key and telling me a room number - no directions to the room, wifi info or any info on the hotel - it was all very basic, wouldn’t recommend

Die Lage des Hotels war perfekt, ein paar Schritte von Paddington Station. das Zimmer war klein, aber sehr sauber und das Bett sehr bequem. auch das Badezimmer war zwar sehr klein, aber sauber. Die schlechten Bewertungen kann ich absolut nicht nachvollziehen. Das war eine super Unterkunft zu einem guten Preis.
