Lage gut, Ausstattung einfach aber sauber und freundliches Personal
Pros:

Frühstück war zwar nicht riesig an Auswahl aber es wurde täglich gefragt ob man ein englisches Frühstück möchte, dieses wurde dann frisch zubereitet. Zimmer recht einfach und sehr warm, da half auch der Standventilator nichts. Die Betten/ Matratze sehr weich und Kissen eher fest. Das Bad und Dusche waren sehr eng.

Cons:

Es gab leider nur Toast , keine Brötchen oder Wurstaufschnitt, Kaffee leider auch nur löslich zum selbstaufgießen.

Great location, Simple, clean, cheap, safe
Pros:

Great location, 5 mins walk to Paddington. I felt safe as a lone women. The staff were really friendly. Everything was clean. I needed a room from 6pm - 5am and it was perfect value. I would stay here again

excellent value in a convenient location with friendly staff, easy luggage access, and a good breakfast
Pros:

I would rebook. Hotel is in a fantastic location, just a 5-minute walk from Paddington Station, making it very easy to get to even with a large suitcase and the hotel has minimal steps and an elevator. There are plenty of restaurants and cafés nearby, so finding somewhere to eat is never a problem. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful throughout my stay. I also enjoyed the English breakfast, which was great value at £7. The bed was comfortable, and while the room was small, it was perfectly adequate for my two-night stay as a solo traveller. I also appreciated the bar and lounge area near reception, which was a nice place to relax.

Cons:

My room 206 was located in the middle of the building with two windows facing the breakfast area and internal walkways, meaning I had to keep the blinds closed for privacy. There was no power socket near the head of the bed. The bathroom was very small, and there was a little mould visible in one corner of the shower. While the room suited my needs, I think it would be quite cramped for two people unless you were only returning to sleep after being out all day.

Good location, Clean Rooms in a Budget.
Pros:

Good location, clean room and most importantly, a fan to counter the English summer.

Cons:

Limited breakfast spread but okay for a budget hotel.

Great convenient location, nice breakfast and staff
Pros:

Room was a good size, and it was in the basement so nice and cool (especially once we found the fan). Breakfast was simple but done very well and plenty of it. Staff were nice and friendly and the hotel was v clean. The location was great just a few minutes from Paddington and fairly quiet at night. Really useful fridge in the room (weather was v hot when we stayed).

Cons:

Unfortunately our TV didn't work, it was fairly late at night and we were leaving next day, we did not report (sorry) it did not detract from our stay. (used our phones instead!)

Great choice of hotel - stay here!
Pros:

Everything was great. I'm always booking rooms for others or staying myself in this area, and this is one of my favourite/first choice hotels to book. Staff on front desk are always professional, courteous and kind. Highly recommend.
