Good value good location
I think this will be my preferred place to stay when in London for work. It's not brilliant but it is reliably better than all the other places I've stayed in this price range.

Good value for London
Very good value for a hotel so central in London - so don't expect luxury! But good-sized twin room, big and clean bathroom, good fan and TV etc...Plus tea & coffee. Breakfast fairly basic - but again, you get what you pay for. Perfectly fine hotel for an overnight London stay, so convenient for Hyde Park concert and also Paddington, great location - hence night time noise!

We stayed two nights. The location is perfect.
This is an older hotel but it met out needs and budget perfectly. The breakfast was adequate and gave us a good start to our day.
We were concerned about some of the negative reviews but it was good.
Beds were comfortable and shower had hot water. Everything was clean. We will stay again on our next visit to London.

Great area, only 5 minutes to the Paddington train station. But no warm water or any comfort in this hotel. Would only recommend to stay one night.

Enjoyable stay.
Comfortable stay, only thing that lets it down is the lack of parking. Had a really nice continental breakfast the next morning.

The location was great. Short walking distance from the Paddington Station, and access from bus stops nearby. Being accompanied by pigeons outside of the window was some times irritating, but otherwise the stay was a pleasant.

The hotel was no frills, a fan was provided in the room which was needed given the warm weather currently. Room was clean and tidy.
Self adhesive hook on back of bathroom door kept falling off… those things never stay attached.
Didn’t go down for breakfast and there was an aroma of cigarette smoke around the building, not sure if someone has/had been smoking in room previously.

Fine.
Overall it was fine. I find with London you get what you pay for and I only stayed the night. Sure, the buildings a bit dated and it probably needs a bit of TLC and modernisation but it’s a budget friendly option. For £60 it done the job. My shower was hot, the bed was average, wifi would not connect, the room fan (excellent idea on reflection) worked but was full of dust and I can’t comment on the food as I didn’t bother (personal choice). I’ve stayed in worse for more money.

You get what you pay for
The hotel was very convenient for Paddington station which was what we needed. Got a very cheap deal and whilst the room, sheets and bathroom were clean and the neighbourhood quiet, the hotel is very tired. The room was extremely hot making it difficult to sleep (despite it not being hot weather, only using a sheet and having the fan on), plus we were in the basement and the carpet on the stairs down there was truly filthy. I probably would pay a bit more next time for a better hotel, but if money is tight and you don't mind the heat, the room itself was clean and bed ok.
