The check in help we had from Altido’s staff, Foysol, was outstanding. He even came back quite late at night because the information about the keys was inaccurate.
Pros:
1- near the tube
2 - Paddington is a quiet area at night and we felt safe
3 - shower is excellent.
Cons:
1 - There is some excessive decor going on not shown in the photographs and makes the place feel cramped. Maybe that’s personal taste but I chose the place based on a clean aesthetic which it is not.
2 - There are two large dustbins next the kitchen not photographed. This is a bit unpleasant if you are sleeping on the sofa beds as our kids did.
3 - There was a smell in the kitchen area. Almost the smell of cigarette smoke? I’m not sure what it was but it did go away after a day.
4 - The place could have been cleaner just generally.
5 - The sofa bed is not comfortable.
6 - There was a huge ladder in the bedroom making it very cramped.
Overall an okay stay & good service from Altido.
