Location location location!
Pros:

So convenient, quick walk from Paddington station so easy to access. We had a front room around the corner from the main check in. It was summer and we appreciated the aircon which worked well. Small bathroom but didn’t need it to be bigger. Travelled with a group of 4.

Cons:

Everything was great.

Lovely old building in a great location at a fantastic price!
Pros:

In a great location to get to from the station. Has aircon. Lovely building.

Cons:

There were 3 of us staying, only one glass in the room when we arrived and not enough milk or coffee for us all. I know I could ask for more, but surely it should be set out for the number of people.

Solid choice
Pros:

Comfy beds, clean and quiet. Great neighborhood, felt safe. Close to restaurants, the tube station, and central London. Very informative and hard-working staff.

Cons:

No elevator, which was totally expected though. Other than that, just the hand soap. I personally found it nauseating.

Reasonable place to stay
Pros:

The area was about the best part

Cons:

The room had loads of faults from lights not working properly. Dangerous step into toilet/shower.
The property we stayed at wasn't a second location around the corner. They wanted a £50 deposit for the room but had to wait 3 days to get it back. The property was what it looks like in images.
