The location is fabulous. Near Hyde Park, Padding Station, Bayswater area, Museum quarter, Royal Albert Hall. The prices are affordable and the staff super-friendly. It's very convenient for what I usually need to do in this area. The room I was in however, was very basic, so the interior dated/ needing refurbishment and repair and in my case the shower was actually, physically in my room, right next to my bed! Luckily I could open a window, but it felt rather damp and smelt like well, an old bathroom/ WC.
