Overall the location was very good being located just around the corner from Paddington Station. However, we found the traffic noise quiet hard to cope with, even during the night. It was obvious that some guests were smoking in their rooms and maybe this could have been policed more. The smoke alarm activated at one stage and everyone had to evacuate at 8.30am in a Sunday morning. The room we stayed in was extremely small and it was an effort to walk around the double bed to get to the window. Staff were pleasant.
