Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Very close to the train stations, so that was convenient, thecroom wasctoo small for two people to sleep in, was supposwd to be a twin room, wasnt big enough for two beds, and neither for one person, it was very hot, no air con, was a fan but not good enough to cool the room, the beds were very comfy though, we decided to only stay for one night but checked in and paid for 2 nights

The beds were fine, but the room had a strange smell. The walls were covered in holes and there was barely ever someone at reception. Additionally the windows didnt have locks nor did the toilet.

It certainly provides for a place to stay but we weren’t excited to go back to it after being tourists in London. It was dated and could have used some improvements but it provided the bare minimum of what we needed for an economical place to stay. The staff was responsive and efficient and there was no shortage of guests coming in and out so they remain successful. We would not choose to stay here again unless it was the only choice within our price range.

This is a nice little London hotel, quite typical of many smaller independent hotels in the busy area of King's Cross. The room was small but clean, the beds were very comfortable, the shower was good. There was no air conditioning but a fan was provided and the window could be opened. It would have been nice if a small fridge was provided but the size of the room didn't allow for this. There was no ice machine at the hotel so no way to keep any food or drinks cold. The hotel is very well located with lots of places to eat, little shops, bike rental, and bars nearby. It's less than a 10 minute walk to King's Cross and St. Pancras train stations. The staff were wonderful and they will allow you to store your bags the day of arrival until your room is ready for check-in. Top marks for convenient location, friendly staff and cleanliness.

Bad nights sleep.

Perfect location for what we wanted but the only downside to this hotel was the bed. Half of the bed was broken so was very uncomfortable and bed was small and not a double

Well it was ok as far as stays go. We stayed in the basement room. The carpet could do with replacing. The mirror was water damaged .The shower was pretty good but the door didnt fully close so water flooded the room. The TV was the size of a postcard which made us laugh. No lock on the bathroom door.

Room above me sounded like they were doing the cha-cha-cha at 5 am and neighbouring room had someone singing, loudly, at just after midnight. Unkown if they do breakfast as the unfriendly person who checked me in said little more than my room number and that it was on the second floor. Room was clean - except thick layer of dust on picture frame. Bed was comfortable but mattress may be a little firm for some.
