Huge scam. The prices are attractive but there will never be a place available whatever the dates of stay. What really is the point of trying to book at these establishments. Pure waste of time. …

I previously lived at other LHA properties and absolutely loved them. However, my stay at the LHA Paddington was truly a disaster.Since my move-in day, I have consistently had issues with my room. When I try to resolve the issues with management, the response I receive is that " we will look into it."There were times when they disabled my access card to enter the property. When I spoke with them about the issue, the response was that " we had issued four cards for my room, and none were in my name", so we canceled all the cards to enter the room. I mean, you can see that I am living in the property and have been paying my rent. Why not reach out to me and ask me to come down to the reception to get it fixed? Instead, why would you proceed further and cancel all the access cards? Because of an administrative mistake on your part, which made me wait outside for 20 minutes until I was let into the property.The other issue, the AC, worked for the first three days, and that's it. It never worked again. When asked about it, they would state that "we are awaiting a technician to come down and have a look at it." Please be realistic; didn't you manage to get a technician to fix it for three whole weeks?Above all, I truly don't understand the manager's attitude towards the tenants. He comes across as if I work for him and can talk to and interrupt people at any time of the day. I realize that LHA being a charity helps people with affordable housing and other perks for its employees. But, I am not one of the staff working for LHA. I pay my rent. So, I would have appreciated it if he would be polite and calm to the tenants instead of rude and annoying.I can keep going on, but I firmly believe it would just make things worse. I wish I could give a zero rating, but sadly, I can't. I hope the place improves and changes happen.

Non-soundproof rooms. Too much noise especially at night... Poor breakfast... But what can I say, it's worth it just for the location...
