I like to now and again spend a couple of days in London with my girlfriend, go out at night, visit museums etc during the day and all I really need is a bed, shower and a place to store bags etc. After searching for hotels for the date I had available, I came across a room at this hotel with twin beds as most hotels with a decent price were all booked up. Upon entering the room (after climbing 3 flights of stairs) you enter a very basic room (which I don't mind) with a tv, two beds and side tables. One thing that did bother me was there was nowhere to rest your phone or device while charging, only on the bed because the only plugs were beside the door and high up. The bathroom was a 1970s (or even earlier) premolded room made from fiberglass (not a problem for me). BUT!! there is nothing better than a nice hot shower to start your day (specially when there is storm Darragh blowing outside) and you find there is NO HOT WATER.... I asked at the desk and I was told the boiler was being fixed and all I got was "sorry about that... Have a good day" at checkout. And I did forget to mention that we did find long blond hairs in the "clean" folded towels. I would have paid £50 MAX for this room as it is close to Paddington.
