"Prisvärt boende! Dessvärre fungerade duscharna dåligt, hittade dock en dusch längre bort i korridoren nära hissen som hade bra tryck i vattnet. Personalen i receptionen hade även väldigt svårt att dra på smilbanden, annars var det ett toppen boende. Bra område!"

"Clean room, and bathrooms were cleaned often. It was quite hot with no A/C and in a heat wave, but the hotel provided a great fan. Breakfast was great and they provided plenty of great options. Wifi wasn’t available in the rooms, only the main lobby, but they had some couches that we were able to rest on in there. Area is extremely convenient and beautiful, close to transit."

"I looked for the best deal in town and wasn’t disappointed. Minutes from Paddington station but miles away from noise, cited in a leafy square. For a hostel, this was perfect. Unexpected extras included fridge, microwave, desk fans, kettle and no need to ask for more towels or loo paper. Crisp clean bedding, fresh feel. This is basic done with style and the staff were lovely. Would definitely book with them again. Thank you."
