The location was near Paddington Station and quite convenient. The bar downstairs seemed lively.
I found the steep stairs difficult. There was no lift. Carrying luggage up multiple flights was not fun.

Paddington Gem, Great Location, Solid Stay

central locationhandy pubcharging station
The location worked great. The proximity to Paddington Station made transportation easy. I found the pub downstairs convenient, especially for late arrivals. I appreciated the USB and USBC sockets available. It removed my need for a UK power socket adapter.
The entrance felt a little unsecured outside pub hours. Access depended on other guests closing the common door.

Staff members were excellent and quick to give tutorials. They solved an issue with the air conditioning unit in my room. Housekeeping rescued clothing I inadvertently left.
