Quad room was far too small for 4. Room was in the attic which was stifling hot even with windows wide open. Rats were running around outside the property and we had zero interaction with the staff other than checking in. This is the 5th hotel I’ve stayed in in London and the only one I would not recommend.

The hotel had a great location. Beds were a little springy but fine for one night. It has an elevator but no A/C which would be normally fine, but it was hot one day.

This place was in a great location, just a little small for our family. The people at breakfast in the morning were always smiling and helpful. I just noticed the bed had a foul odor; they may need to replace it soon. But other than that, it was a good choice for us.

I wouldn’t recommend this property for a family as the rooms are very very tiny and there is no space to put suitcases. There is also no fridge in the room which makes it difficult when you are travelling with medications that require it. Overall the staff were nice except for one woman who was very rude when I asked for help with retrieving medications I had stored in the staff fridge. Overall for the money I would go elsewhere if travelling with a family

El hotel está bien ubicado en la zona de Paddinton, a pocas cuadras de estación de metro y buses. También pasan cerca los buses turísticos. La limpieza es su mayor atributo. Las habitaciones están bien pero es muy complicado llegar a ellas, bajando escaleras y teniendo que pasar por varias puertas y en nuestro caso teniendo que atravesar el desayunador. En el caso nuestro la habitación 54 se encontraba debajo de la recepción y se escuchaban ruidos en el techo todo el tiempo ( tratar de evitarla). Hay desayuno muy completo pagando un adicional. La habitación posee caja de seguridad. Por el precio abonado hubiera esperado un frigobar. En síntesis, el hotel está bien, pero con algunos detalles seria óptimo.

VERY SMALL ROOM - NO AIR CONDITIONING

The room was way too small and could barely fit a double bed in it. It felt very claustrophobic. The thing that made it worse was that there was no air conditioning and it was in the middle of a heatwave. The man at reception did provide us with two fans to be fair. But overall, this room was not value for money at all.
