Room was very small, no space to place suitcase except on the table. Bedding and walls next to bed were stained, and hairs were still stuck under the bed cover which was offputting. Shower pressure ok. Was woken up by neighbour talking - rooms not soundproof.

Like a comfy old slipper

While this hotel does need an overall refresh, we like its like-a-comfortable-old-slipper character. The staff here is always so nice, welcoming, and helpful. Our go-to place in London!

Tiny tiny tiny

Very old hotel in need of updates. Noisy you can hear everything through the door. Bathroom so tiny you can’t bend over to use the sink! And I’m a short person. Shower very tiny. Beds very firm. Felt like sleeping on a wood board. Breakfast is basic and the service very slow and inefficient. Rooms could be cleaner. Cobwebs and dust in corners. Short walk to paddington is the only redeeming factor

The hotel is in a great location if you use Paddington from Heathrow. The breakfast is great. Internet is dependable which can be an issue in some of the older buildings. Overall a great stay.

Hôtel vétuste ayant besoin de rafraîchissement. Vieux tapis sales, planchers inégaux dans la chambre. Manque de rangement ou de crochets dans celle-ci. Ascenseur très lent. Déjeuner américain interessant. Les point forts sont le personnel tres gentil et l’emplacement de l’hôtel bien situé.

This hotel is VERY outdated and old --and exceedingly small. The carpeting, although seemingly clean, needed replaced. The traffic noise was awful (no sound proofing) and the closet smelled of mold. Additionally, the bathroom door would not stay open. The sheets had some kind of scented detergent smell, which is awful for those with allergies and asthma, like me. All that aside, the staff was friendly and caring. The breakfast was very good and that staff was also very good. The location is excellent.
