I traveled alone in April as a birthday present to myself and had booked this b&b through ratestogo.com so I ended up alone in double ensuite room for the price of a single one. After reading some of the reviews here I was a bit afraid about staying there but all in all it wasn't bad at all. Room and bathroom were clean and maid service was provided daily, bed was comfy and really that's all I needed. It is cheap and you have to consider that this is London after all. I would have to say that it is value for money. Location is really good and central, very good conection through night buses. Have in mind that this is a budget b&b and don't have high expectations and you'll be fine there.

complete dive this place needs closing down with imediate effect this place is not fit for pigs to live in mouse traps on the floor old bedding which is stained pillows might as well of slept without em carpets filithy dirty, curtains dont shut, bathroom moulded up shower curtain moulded up better of sleeping in a tent in hyde bloody park its no good asking for your money back as there is a sign saying no refunds under no circumstances if i could of got of refund i would of gone someone else straight away for what we paid we could of got a lovely hotel in the ramada down the road complete rip off for a hole dont book here whats so ever its the living hell

I stayed for 2 nights with my 8 year old son.
I found the hotel fine though was worried about the reviews which I only saw after booking!
We had a room looking out on the street and although basic was fine for us.
My son had frequent trips downstairs to ask the man at the desk to change his batteries on toys he had bought that needed a screwdriver and he was happy to do this! I also asked for a hairdrier and was given a very good one to use.
The breakfast was fine but no sausages on second day...but had our orange refilled at no extra charge.
It was really great for the tube stations and had a 24 hour shop on the way back that we got drinks for the night from.
I,m used to staying in very upmarket places but this was fine for a cheap trip and I would book again.
If people want luxury they should pay the price for it, not sure what people expect for London. We got the room very cheap online...basically half price and would not want to pay more than that.
Incidently there are no fleas in the room...it would be closed down if that was the case. And there IS hot water though sometimes you had to let in run for a little while.
I am rating this as very good for the class and price of the hotel.
It is not claiming to be a 5 star luxury place after all.

Me and my Boyfriend stayed here for a 2 day trip in Oct 2011. Good Location, walking distance from Paddington station (just down 1 long road) also extremely close to Edgware Underground, which was good for us as we were exploring loads so used underground everyday. Hotel is average, hotel room was clean and tidy but shower did not have a head on, which after we complained about did not get fixed. but as a base, if you are not wanting to spend alot of time on your hotel room that it is fine. Breakfast was amusing, you dont get an allocated table you just go down and sit if space available. However we did not know the rules of the dinning room and got told off by the (i think polish) waitress, she did aplogise after so it was fine. Basically if there is a space then sit, you may have to share your table with other guests too. Breakfast was average, nothing to complain about food wise. We only paid £70 pppn which we were happy with considering it is London. So if you dont want luxury then it is perfect!!
