The hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were dirty and run down, but the location was convenient for transportation and shopping needs. The service was lacking, with rude staff and extra charges for basic assistance. Dining was below par, pushing guests to seek alternatives. However, the hotel offers some basic facilities for guests.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The location was convenient, just a 10-minute walk from London Paddington, which was the best part. However, the rooms lacked basic amenities like a hairdryer and had to pay a deposit for it. The service was friendly but the lack of in-room facilities and promised breakfast was disappointing. Not the ideal stay, but manageable for budget travelers.
Rooms

The room I stayed in didn't have a hairdryer, and I had to pay a £20 deposit to get one from reception. Despite the window being fully open in November, which was uncomfortable for me on a Saturday night.

The location is the best feature of this property, being central to two subway stations and next to a beautiful park. However, it didn't fully make up for the uncomfortable room experience.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was convenient, near Hyde Park and with good tube access, but the street noise from a nearby hostel was disruptive at night. The rooms were disappointing, with consistent mold, cramped space, and even bird droppings, making fresh air impossible. Service was a mix, with some staff being friendly and helpful while others were rude and wanted to charge for simple requests. Dining options were limited, and the facilities were average at best.

The hotel had a few drawbacks like cramped rooms with poor connectivity and early morning disturbances, but it's a decent choice for short stays. On the upside, the location is convenient and close to major attractions.
Rooms

The room we stayed in was cramped for two adults, with issues of poor Wi-Fi and being next to a store room. The skylight allowed in too much sunlight early in the morning, which was a bit inconvenient.

The hotel offers mixed experiences with cozy but tight rooms, and staff that tries to help but lacks expertise. The location is a strong point, close to Hyde Park and tube stations, but the dining options may not meet expectations.

My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms were comfortable and had everything I needed, although there were some minor issues like cracked floor tiles in the bathroom. The service was extremely nice and accommodating, although there were a few moments where they were less than helpful. The location was great, with easy access to public transportation and key attractions. The dining experience was acceptable but could be improved. The facilities were adequate for my needs.

The hotel is located in an ideal spot for Bayswater and Kensington, close to public transport, Hyde Park, and local pubs and bars. The rooms were a bit smaller than expected with limited natural light, but clean and tidy. The service felt a bit like being at a school camp in the lobby, and some issues were being discussed by the staff. The location offers easy access to the Central line and nearby attractions. The dining experience lacked in-room tea and coffee but had delicious homemade cakes available. Overall, a good location with some room for improvement.

The hotel is conveniently located close to Kensington, Hyde Park, and Bayswater station, making it easy to explore London. The rooms felt more like a basic student dorm than an executive apartment, lacking proper temperature control, but the friendly service made up for it. The offsite breakfast was a downside, and there were mixed feelings about the dining experience.

The hotel seemed promising with a kitchenette in the room, but the reality was disappointing with unbearable warmth and rude cleaners. The room was much smaller than expected, with rotted windows and signs of damp, which doesn't match the initial impression.
