The location of this place is very good if you have a flight the next day. 15 minute train to Heathrow on the Express train is convenient from Paddington Station. The wifi really works poorly here. Maybe too many people use it in the evenings, but we could not even check into our flights on it without losing service 5 times. This a hostel like setting. There are maybe 3-4 rooms that guests stay in and 1 full bathroom and 1 toilet room and a kitchen. So if you stay here, you will have a room, and can walk down the hallway to a shared bathroom or a shared kitchen area. There is no living room or dining room. It is a good place to stay for a night if you are desperate, but I don't think it makes for much of a London experience. The actual building is old which is common for this area. The downside is the overall craftsmanship and lack of maintenance that has gone into the actual home/apartment/hostel or whatever this is. The light fixtures are old lightbulbs hanging from the ceiling. The hallway is lit with an old $2 brass lamp that is tilted over. The finishes are poor. The paint, trim, hardware, fixtures, flooring, just about everything in this place is D- craftsmanship. Most everything was recently tinkered with and would not meet code. Door latches have slide bolts (or the door would not lock) where someone chiseled out a chunk of wood and screwed in a clasp. It all looks shoddy and doesn't work well. The floor is like an old pergo floor that someone painted over with black paint. Wherever plaster was removed, it was not replaced. Everything is very loud in the house, door opening and closing echo down the hallway. There are gaps around the doors and can be pretty loud. The decorations are strange- maybe a 8 inch tall picture on a 14' tall wall. Although the room was technically "clean" everything is so old and there is such poor craftsmanship, that it appears to be dirty. There is old baseboard missing in places, and the paint has chucks of debris that was rolled into the paint, the caulking is old and turning brown or black, walls and ceilings are cracked and trim is not finished properly. If you know exactly what you are renting here, I think it is fine. Expect to go through an entryway, then turn left into another hallway and then walk until you find a room with a couple beds in it. I would never rent this again, but it was not bad. It was by far the most I have spent on a room (for the value) but this is London and maybe a proper room in a house is $500 or more, I don't know. I get the feeling that calling it a hostel or hotel is not allowed, so it is called a room in a house. But houses have...
