Habitación muy pequeña para 3 adultos.
Pros:

La ubicación perfecta, el personal amable, el desayuno bien.

Cons:

El tamaño de la habitación para tres camas era insuficiente; estaba situada en un bajo casi interior. EL baño pequeño, no habia sitio para poner las cosas de aseo de las 3 personas,: sitio para guardar las maletas escaso; sitio para moverse escaso, pidiendonos permiso unos a otros para pasar. La mampara de la ducha no se podía abrir bien desde dentro.

Ich komme gerne wieder, das Hotel ist durchaus zu empfehlen.
Pros:

Gute Lage nahe Paddington Railwaystation und Underground, schöne Umgebung - viele Bäume in Sussex Gardens.
Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und bemüht, haben sofort auf meine Wünsche reagiert.

Cons:

Keine Klimaanlage (Hitzewelle!) und das Fenster war nur einen Spalt zu öffnen.
Die Sauberkeit könnte sich noch verbessern (z.B völlig verstaubte TV Fernbedienung, Zahnpastaspuren an der Badezimmerwand ...)

Un albergo con posizione ottima, in un quartiere tranquillo.
Pros:

La posizione eccezionale, lo staff molto cordiale e disponibile. Pulizia delle camere buona!

Cons:

Purtroppo abbiamo soggiornato durante l'ondata di calore eccezionale. Le finestre che si aprono poco e senza aria condizionata ha reso davvero difficile riposare.

Aparte de la ubicación que en realidad es muy buena, mala elección del hotel por su relación precio calidad
Pros:

Solo la ubicación

Cons:

Lo estrecho de las piezas, el baño una miniatura, el desayuno pobre y con jugo y fruta en conserva; ni hablar del aseo, un día ni siquiera hicieron la habitación!!
