Cheap and quiet hotel. Room could do with a refresh, and tv didn’t work. Mattress could also do with being replaced. For a one night stay it was ok.

Room small but almost every fixture and fitting was damaged. The shower had NO hot water , only the tink sink water was hot. TV remote control only worked now and then and was damaged. Sheets were clean and location good and staff friendly but maintenance very poor!

If I were 20 years old again and traveling with friends, this hotel would have been fine. The rooms were extremely small and I couldn't even turn around in the shower. Young people wouldn't mind; I did.

I was worried about staying here because of previous bad reviews but for the price I paid in the location. It wasn’t bad and the service was amazing. They always wanted me to be comfortable and have the best stay possible so if you’re looking for something in this location at a low rate I think this is a decent choice

great hotel location

Location - great, room-clean; there was no hairdryer, but we got one upon request at the reception. The was also no tea kettle in the room to boil water; there is very little space in the shower but we fit in, the water is good, maybe there could be as many shampoo packets as there are nights of sleep...there was no soap or shower gel... could use more towels.

Clean room, good location.

It is not 5 stars hotel, you cannot expect that much, however, the hotel has good location, there are 2 underground stations, some restaurants and grocery stores around that place. It is very convenient. If you are looking for clean, and convenient hotel to stay, I strong recommend.

4/10 Fair

The rooms are super small and the bed is awful sinking in the middle definitely needs to be change ASAP !!! we asked to be transferred to another room coz of the bed situation the one we got was not that good either , the bathroom is so small u can barely do anything inside , toilet seat was broken and the WiFi hardly works . We even had to pay additional to get in just an hour early . Staff not as friendly . The only plus I must say was the location ! Close to everything .

The room wasnt clean. The carpet was dirty. The bed was lumpy and very uncomfortable. The sink and shower didnt drain property. There were no towels in the room but the staff were lovely and gave me some on request. No hairdryer or kettle in the room.

6/10 Good

Location was good and reception also great. Unfortunately the room was having some heating issues so I had to sleep with the window open. Luckily I always travel with earplugs otherwise it would have been difficult to sleep for long time due to the noise on the street. I stayed for one night so was still good for what I needed and the price paid.

Disappointing.

Room grubby stains on walls pillows stained lift dirty damp smell in room. Unable to open blind or window. Bed uncomfortable left with back pain. Shower dirty foul smelling unable to use. Staff indifferent. On the plus side location good lots of places to eat lots of pubs and shops. Walking distance to popular attractions if you are up for walking mile or two or Paddington st half a mile.

2/10 Poor

This hotel is NOT as advertised. The pictures are not of the same hotel. FALSE ADVERTSISING - and expedia refuses to refund me. The rooms are tiny, and the bathrooms are even smaller. The carpets are stained and burnt, Very Old stained mattresses, no cover on them what so ever, TV is tiny, window coverings don't open, window won't stay open, no toiletries, no kettle, no coffee, you can't fit a normal sized person in the bathroom, Yet this fact it NOT mentioned anywhere, its stained and gross too. The only good thing about this property is the location. Google reviews are very different from expedia reviews, a lot of bed bug complaints too. Do not stay here

2/10 Poor

The rooms aren’t just dirty, they are actually filthy. Tried to change rooms, but the second room was just as filthy, including the bed sheets. It was obvious that the only thing that had been done was emptying the bins. A large hole in the wall was, believe it or not, covered by two A3 peices of paper. Luckily we barely stayed in the room. The only thing that is positive is that the location of the hotel is close to Paddington stadion in case you come by train from Heathrow, and Lancaster gate Underground is fairly close to Oxford Circus. But this does not change the fact that this is the absolute worst hotel i have ever stayed at. Stay away, the low price is definetely not worth it!
