    “Family trip”

    It was very convenient to move from the airport to the accommodation because it is so close to Paddington Station. The facilities and bedding seemed old, but they were clean and well-laundered, and there were no issues. There was an elevator, but it was out of order when I went, so I couldn't use it. The breakfast was also satisfying for the price.

    “The transportation is very convenient and the environment is great.”

    It is about a 5-minute walk from Paddington Station, which you can reach with a single express train from Heathrow Airport. There are many supermarkets and commercial facilities inside the station, making it very convenient. Since there are also embassies nearby, I think the environment is good. Breakfast is also easy and very nice.

    “Very good”

    I am leaving an honest review. 1. Location: It's a 5-10 minute straight walk from Paddington Station. The pavement isn't as bad as in other European cities, so pulling a suitcase isn't too difficult, but the sidewalks are narrow, so when cars were coming, I had to pull my suitcase on the road. 2. Elevator: The Agoda listing mentioned there is an elevator. There is one, but it's next to the reception in the main building. I booked a budget single room, and maybe because of that, I was assigned to the annex, which is attached to the main building? It's on the top floor, so I had to open another door next to the reception to get in, but there is an elevator there too. However! It had an out-of-order sign. It seems like it has been broken for a long time. I don't know if room assignments in the main building or annex are random or based on price, but it can be shocking for those arriving like me to find out. But a kind staff member helped me to my room and, upon seeing my disappointment, moved me up to the 4th floor, which I truly appreciated. As a token of thanks, I gave him a heat pack. Really, thank you once again! At checkout, the stairs were covered in British-style carpet, so I laid my suitcase down to slide it down, which was a bit of a struggle. 3. Safe: When I asked how to operate the safe, I was told it was broken and the same in all rooms. It seems they don't really fix these basic facilities. 4. Wi-Fi: There are no instructions in the room, so please make sure to take a photo of the Wi-Fi details on the reception desk during check-in! 5. Room Amenities: Even the smallest single room was well-equipped with a kettle and tea tray. I especially liked that the vanity had four drawers, which made it easy to organize my belongings. The sink is separate from the bathroom, and the closet is quite spacious. Even though the window is small, being on the top floor gave me my own little view point. 6. Breakfast: Breakfast was included in the price and it was excellent. I overate each morning because it was so good. 7. Luggage after checkout: There isn't a designated luggage storage area, so you can just leave your bags against the wall next to the reception. There are no tags for names or room numbers. 8. First floor restroom: I didn't see one on the first floor, but you can use a public restroom on the basement level where the breakfast area is located.

    “3 nights”

    This was my first stay. I had requested a high floor, but my room was on the 4th floor, and there was a view. Although there was no air conditioning, there was a big fan, and since it was hot during my stay, it was really helpful. Even when I hung laundry in the room, it dried quickly thanks to the fan, which was great. The room was very old and lacked a sense of cleanliness, but the shower worked fine and towels were changed daily. Also, it was great that breakfast was included. The staff were helpful, and there were two types of cheese and two types of ham, and they kept baking bread, so I had yogurt with boiled eggs every day. However, breakfast ends at 9:15, so make sure to go early. Depending on the room assignment, the view might be poor, but perhaps I was lucky this time. Nevertheless, it’s really just a short walk from the station, which was very convenient. I would like to stay again.

    “If you think about expensive accommodations in London, it's fine.”

    It's really quite narrow. But it seems hard to find a decent place in London at this price. The breakfast is just enough to fill you up. The reception guy is a bit gruff, but it's not problematic... However, I can hear the noise from the next room very well ㅠㅠ But it's close to Paddington Station, there are supermarkets and McDonald's nearby, and the price is affordable... The cleanliness is also okay. I think staying for about 3-4 days would be fine.
