Shower door at corner and joints filthy and caked in what looked like dirt. House keeping not in every day and when the did come only washed tea cups and replaced coffee and tea. No bed made up and glass shelf and taps in bathroom never cleaned. Bin emptied and replacement bag just threw in it. Rain shower fair but no shower caps if you didnt want your hair washed. Although called a hotel there was no bar facilities or any food facilities like a restaurant etc hence no breakfast etc available. Front of house staff friendly . Location excellent.

Liked: Amenities
Room was a bit dated. Old sash window letting in road noise. Noisy bathroom extract fan running continuously, no way of switching it off. Huge gap under door, letting in light from the hallway, had to block with towel. Matress was low quality, not a great night's sleep overall and I was working the next day. Noise from other guests returning to their rooms, the building is smell so noise travels and is disturbing. Not worth the £150

Liked: Amenities
I booked a single room and found the one I was allocated to be clean and well presented. Single rooms are quite small so be prepared for that. There was only one pillow in the room which was annoying and the bed was on wheel which was also frustrating. Overall the hotel felt a little cramped but was adequate for the cost which is on the budget side. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Location is very handy to Paddington Station, food outlets and Kensington Gardens.
