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!!

Un buena opción para visitar Londres
Pros:

Nos gustó, sobre todo, la ubicación. Está en un barrio tranquilo y con buenas comunicaciones para visitar la ciudad. El trato amable del personal también es destacable, nos sentimos muy a gusto. El desayuno, correcto, un poco corto pero todo de calidad. No está mal

Cons:

El tamaño de la habitación. Nos alojamos 4 personas y era realmente pequeña. Pero bueno, no íbamos a quedarnos a vivir allí y para unos días, es aceptable.

Overall a very pleasant stay for me and my teenage grandson.
Pros:

The reception staff was most helpful with directions and eating recommendations. The room was cool during the worst heatwave in many years in London. Breakfast was good and the location near Paddington station and tube stop was excellent.
Ask for rooms 51 - 54 as they are the only ones with A/C in the summer.

Cons:

No elevator. and breakfast is only served until 9:00 AM
