The convenience of location, affordability of a safe, comfortable room, and being so close to Hyde Park and other great locations, with a walkable distance to Paddington Station. I would definitely do this again and have a longer stay/ layover in London.

Just a heads up, this is a college/dorm that converts itself to a hotel in the summer. I wish I had known that before I booked here. It smells in the hallways and rooms are very very small/basic. Staff was friendly and it was in a good and safe neighborhood.

The room was clean and reasonably cool in the heatwave. Staff were helpful. We had a room adapted for disabled guests and the alarm sounded, it was fixed in about an hour. Breakfast is very good, it's a ten minute walk away.

Location, Location, Location. Close to Hyde Park which is what we were there for, but it is no frills and IS student accommodation. So in essence super cheap for its location but super expensive for a student dorm with no aircon.

These are Student Halls rented out as hotel rooms outside of term time, but are a great location close to the Royal Albert Hall. Rooms are basic but then so is the price.

This was booked as hotel, it was actually student accommodation. Single room was basically a room for 2 with a divining board /dedk making it a room to be shared by students. Not ideal for a gu. Weekend away. The amenities onsite were closed. Basically a dormitory!!!
