Maybe i didn't read the hotel info close enough. I've stayed in London refurbished row house/hotel before. Enjoyed the quirks. However this hotel while 4 floors, had no elevator. Up 3 flights of very narrow, very worn carpeted stairs. Between floor 2 & 3 it wasn't even wide enough to provide a handrail. 5 beds in room, 3 single, 1 set of bunk beds. Was truly no larger than an average size bedroom. I know the Brits describe the bathroom as a water closet. This particular description isn't even close. You could not stand or sit starting on the toilet, because the sink was that close. Extremely small shower, that when you existed you had trouble drying off, and turning or dressing. Again VERY OLD BUILDING, I get it. Never had AC back during WW2 or after rebuild. Scaffolding outside the window, with protective covers for the workers. Zero airflow in the room with window wide open. Could not turn the heater off. Not to mention one of the beds was pushed up right against it. Think I'll look better next time. On the plus side very close to Paddington Station.
