The room was quite small. There was no space to open your suitcase besides on top the bed. The beds were okay. It looked a bit run down. The bathrooms were tiny and the water was either boiling or freezing. The staff was helpful

Situated very near Paddington station . Friendly staff and nice breakfast selection . Room was clean and had daily housekeeping although the room was very hot and we were unable to open any windows there was a fan we could use. Central location for everywhere we wanted to go to either by tube or on foot .

Excellent location. Generally helpful staff. The breakfast was excellent ; plentiful with a good variety of nutritious food. The staff in the e breakfast room were especially attentive. Everything was very clean. Our room was on the 4 th floor with no lift and narrow stairs. We are both in our 70’s and no help was offered for our luggage. Because the water in the room was labeled “ non-potable”, it would have been nice to have a bottle of drinking water provided.

The GOOD: The staff were courteous and friendly. The location is great as it's walking distance to Paddington Station so getting around is easy on the Tube, especially going on the Elizabeth Line to the airport. There are many shops and restaurants around. On our 2nd stay at the hotel, I made a request to stay on the upper level of the building which the friendly staff granted. The BAD: On our first booking, we were placed in a room in the basement. The ceiling light was not working. It was hard to get the right water temperature with the shower as it was either too hot or too cold. The kettle is made of metal so take caution as it may burn your arm. The small table was wobbly. The worst thing about being in the basement room is that every 3 to 5 mins the underground train comes in and it's located under the room which is not only loud but rattles your bed too. You will not be able to sleep if your room is in the basement. The UGLY: The room does not look like anything in the picture. The picture showed 3 or 4 beds, but in actuality it was one bed with bunk beds. It still sleeps 4 though. The basement room is also located next to the hotel's dinning area. There were also boxes placed around the corridor of the basement. In my opinion, the basement room should not be rented out at all. It needs to be a store or a staff room. I would stay here again because of The GOOD reasons given.

We really enjoyed the Shakespeare. Paddington Station is half a block away. In Paddington Station there is a grocery store, pharmacy/drug store, several restaurants, a Burger King and many other shops. It's well lit and upscale. And so, so close to the Shakespeare.
