This place is in a great location. Very near Paddington station. The building is much much older than it looks in the pictures. The living space is divided up in a rather unusual way, the main living area is on the basement floor, while the main bedroom is on the upper floor or the ground level. There is a courtyard, but it was not usable as the description implied. This was a bit disappointing. In general the place was clean. There was a lot of space to move around, but there is a staircase that is fairly steep,
from the ground floor to the basement floor. With a little updating I think it would improve this property greatly. It did serve our purpose while in London.
