Pros:

Veldig god beliggenhet, kort vei til Paddington station. God standard på rom, rene rom. Kaffemaskin på rommet. Grei frokost.

Cons:

Heis virket ikke, måtte bære kofferter opp i 3.etasje i en smal bratt trapp. Dobbeltrommene hadde liten dobbeltseng, litt trangt til 2 voksne og det var kun dobbeldyne på rommene. Lite lydisolering ut mot gate. Veldig varmt på rom. Trangt frokostlokale

An ok place to sleep one night.
Pros:

Location was very good for our needs and the price for a family of four was good.

Cons:

Elevator did not work during our stay and dragging the luggage up the narrow, winding stairs was something we did not expect. During the daylight hours the rooms became pretty hot. No mini bar / fridge in room.

Pros:

The hotel was very cute and the staff friendly. The bathroom in our room was very nice and the two shower heads were a plus

Cons:

The hotel was quite far from the nearest underground station and walking with our bags wasn't great. The breakfast didn't start early enough for us to have before we had to leave

Passable, in a pinch
Pros:

Proximity to Paddington is great for getting around.

Cons:

The room was very small - not surprising for London, but still. Very basic and in need of some repair. Pillows were packed out and hard.

Styr unna
Pros:

Beliggenhet, rolig område

Cons:

Alt for lite rom, og en liten seng.
Det gikk ikke ann å åpne kofferten på gulvet, da det ikke var gulvplass. 2 cm glipe under døren, som gjorde det veldig lytt. Og man kunne se rett inn på rommet, under døren.
Frokosten kostet 12,5£, og de hadde hvitost, skinke og salami. Sengene var også liten (ca 140cm).

Good
Pros:

The staff were very friendly and helpful.
Hotel was very clean. Towels changed daily and room cleaned daily.
Location was very good just round the corner of the hotel

Cons:

That the lift didn't work..and on arrival we had to take our luggages...but on the other hand on departure we asked for assistance and we got help without any problem.
The shower head is of no good use.it is attaced to the ceiling which makes it impossible to reach all the body...especially if you do not want to wet your hair.
