The hotel was a short walk to paddington station. the room featured a small fridge. That was very helpful. the air conditioning worked very well too. it was a relief given the hot weather.

I found the bathroom to be small. the shower doors obstructed the shower head. Water sprayed everywhere when i tried to close them.
