Quiet area but the tumbling of trains can be felt from the Paddington station. Room was adequate and as advertised. Washroom was a bit cramped but definitely functional to use.

Breakfast was nice continental style with just about anything you could want. I like that it was included as it saves time and money, and that included breakfast is disappearing in this area that was once all b and b’s. Building is old with no lift, but is well maintained and clean. The location is great if you are going to or coming from Heathrow, as the express train goes to Paddington station which is just a block away.

Look for my review previously posted. We were to be staying there Sept 21 - 23 and then the 23 to the 28th. We lasted one night and they advertised it is a superior twin room. What a joke.

Handy for Paddington. In an old house and I was on 4th floor so there were a lot of stairs, no lift. Not good for mobility issues. Room was fine for one night. Bathroom compact, shower good. Fridge in room buzzed all night. Did not hear outside noise. Staff were helpful and quick. Could leave luggage.
