Very cramped room - even for London. The bed was very uncomfortable and our backs hurt for hours the next day. We also changed the nights of the stay from M-Tu to a Wed-Th weeks ahead of time, which they eventually allowed — but charged an unreasonably large rate in our opinion.

We needed a hotel to stay just one night before flying out of Heathrow. This place is clean, simple, convenient, and comfortable. Beds were super comfortable and the heated floor in the bathroom was nice. The room is small and as basic as you can get, but a great value for the small amount of time we’d be there. Location is so convenient with its proximity to paddington station. Would recommend to people looking for just a bed and a shower and planning to spend most time out exploring London.

Bon séjour

Sejour de 3 nuits. Chambre (n°4) au calme. Lit un peu trop mou pour nous. Le chauffage ne fonctionnait pas mais l'hôtesse d'accueil a proposé un chauffage d'appoint en attendant le technicien le lendemain matin. La douche était brûlante mais l'hôtesse est à nouveau intervenue efficacement. Propreté très bien. Accueil très sympa. Petit-déjeuner correct. En résumé, bon hôtel bien placé avec services tout à fait satisfaisant.
