Gegend gut ,Hotel würde ich nicht mehr buchen
Pros:

Die Lage war gut,,wenige Gehminuten zum Bahnhof/Underground,, 10 min. zum Hydepark.
Für einen KurzTip ok

Cons:

Frühstück war bis auf den Kaffee alles andere als gut. In den Zimmer ist die Nasszelle sehr klein,keine Klobürste,enge Dusche,, morgens nur kaltes Wasser.
Das Preis/Leistungsverhältnis passt nicht

Great location. Good choice at breakfast - cereal, toast, fruit, yogurt. Helpful staff. Good value.

Basic but location is good
Pros:

Great location near the Paddington Station

Cons:

Very tiny and dated restroom in the 3-bed room. No help from staff getting a large suitcase to the walk-up room.
Staff was doing their job but would feel more welcomed with even a friendly greeting.

Dobry wybór na 1-2 noce
Pros:

Bardzo dobra lokalizacja, miła obsługa, możliwość skorzystania ze śniadania w obiekcie.
Wszystko co potrzebne było zapewnione w pokoju, chociaż pokój malutki. Byliśmy tylko 1 noc w największe upały i miłym zaskoczeniem był wiatrak w pokoju.

Cons:

Śniadanie minimalne - tosty, ser, szynka, płatki. Przydałyby się świeże warzywa i owoce.
Łazienka bardzo malutka i z brzydkim zapachem stęchlizny.

Ideal location for 1 night stay but nothing more
Pros:

Location is fab, just up the road from Paddington station. Good sized room and clean.

Cons:

It was extremely hot in London so the room was stuffy and uncomfortable to sleep in. Room is small and bathroom not ideal, the shower was weak and temperature difficult to control. Not bad for a 1 night stay and good value for money but I wouldn't recommend for anything more

Pros:

La ubicacion

Cons:

Hotel para que se te quiten las ganas de viajar, habitación horrible, parece un albergue , habitaciones pequeñas y sucias, sin ventilación , y claustrofóbicas de lo pequeño que son, escaleras estrechas y empinadas muy difícil subir con maletas, servicio de habitaciones inexistentes, no limpiaban las habitaciones, si quieres toalla tienes que pagar 1 libra y encima no te dan toalla de mano, el suelo daba asco pisarlo, el cuarto de baño muy pequeño no llega ni a 1 metro cuadrado lleno de pelos y estropeada, había que estar aguantando el grifo con una mano porque sino no salía agua, la televisión con los cables cortados, la recepcionista nada agradable
