    Rougher accommodation, but in a very convenient location.
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Double Room with Private Bathroom
    • Stayed 4 nights

    - I was rather annoyed by the fact that I had to leave a £10 key deposit in cash (which is a reasonable precaution) which was supposed to be returned to me at checkout; but when I checked out in the morning, nobody was in the office, and I was later told that the only way to get my key deposit back would be to e-mail them my credit card details (which I'm not comfortable sending over e-mail). - The walls are paper-thin, so when my Italian neighbors were having a romantic evening, it was as if I were right there in the room with them. (Fortunately that only happened once, but I could also hear every word of their conversations crystal-clearly.) - The room had no obvious space for luggage (I had to put my suitcase on the nightstand), no desk chair (I had to sit on some kind of storage cube), and no outlets by the bed. - The sink only sporadically had a trickle of cold water, and sometimes none at all, which was weird, and meant I couldn't fill the kettle. I reported this issue my second day, but it was never fixed. - The hot water in the shower fades in and out, so water temperature was a gamble from moment to moment. - There's no lift, which was fine with me, but might be a concern for people with mobility issues.

    + I found both the bed and pillows to be super comfy, and I appreciated that the room had blackout curtains, so I slept really well (when it was quiet). + The room was well-heated, which was a saving grace for me. + I really appreciated that there was a light switch right above the bed, so I didn't have to get out of bed to turn it on and off. + Good strong wi-fi signal, which was helpful for working remotely. + Nearby Tube access (both King's Cross and Euston stations were only a 10 – 12 minute walk away). + Helpfully, a convenience store located just a few doors down was open late.

    I'm not going to be harsh, it was really cheap near Camden. Room was basic and looked like converted flats (room had an old fashioned front door lock). It wasn't dirty at all but so old fashioned. Shower was not great, old and needed replaced but water was nice and hot. Toilet was also old and not "hotel quality". I was also asked to pay extra for the room key (I assume a deposit). At the end of the day, it was extremely cheap in a good location so it was kind of ok for the purposes hence the mid-rating(I had a short visit and was there 4 hours). So as expected but hoped for more. Would I stay there again, no... I would not.

    Not easy to do this review, so... location was great. It was a 30 minute walk to Camden. Bed sheets were also fresh and clean.

    The floor covered by a fitted carpet was uneven. The stairs were too step. The room was quite small. Anyway it was close to the tube station.

    The facilities are very basic, every door squeaks loudly, cobwebs, dust and dirt in most places in the room.

    Great, quiet location very close to transport links. Staff were super nice and friendly. The room was very reasonably priced for weekend with lots of events going on. Cheap room, does the job.

    Room wasn’t cleaned once in the five days I was there. No shower screen, so it was impossible to shower without flooding the small room and covering the toilet in water. They’re charging £75 a night for a £30 room.

    This is no penthouse suit, but fine.

    Our room slept 4 adults, a little cramped but for one night it was fine. Location was excellent for St.Pancras station (10min walk). Bathroom is very compact, but again for one night was fine, not much space for clothes. Suitcases which in fairness we did have 3 cases and 2 rug sacks were on the floor which we had to move around. But as I have said the room was fine for one night for our situation.

    The shared bathroom was tiny and not very clean. All sinks had lots of calcium buildup. The room was also quite small and not optimal for two people. The bed didn't have a proper duvet, just a sheet and a fleece blanket.

    Good location, room felt clean, ok for a night

    Tiny room with paper thin walls so it felt like the people in the next room were actually in your room. Been kicked out at 10am, when we were told it was 11am, But you get what you pay for.

    Too expensive for 1 person just to stay overnight, one would expect extra delicious breakfast at this price. Old, smelly, squeaky, not well maintained place. Doors to the rooms are really poor and not keeping you safe, tv not working.

    Good location, near the event I was attending. Friendly and kind staff. Fairly clean.

    Not the cleanest of hotels. Smelt damp. Rooms are very tiny and basic but the very minimal bedding was clean. Plenty of tea and coffee available and towels and soap.

    Location fantastic. Close to kings cross.

    wasn't the cleanest, beds were nice, but the rest of the room kind of gave me and my friend a weird ick feeling.. and this just wasn´t worth the price at all

    i liked the location, wasn't too far from the station, and ontop of that not all that far from the british museum

    I am aware the London standards are really low, but in this place it is not possible to leave the luggage, we were told that they don't have space. It was the first time in my life I've ever heard about this. Considering that the room cost 157 pounds, at least keeping the luggage for a couple of hours would be a must-do service. The blanket and bed-linen were really poor quality, I had a terrible sleep.

    The hotel is really conveniently located, close to St.Pancras metro. It's OK for one night, but the services are basic.

    The carpet, the wall, the shower curtain didn t seem clean. The room was very small, it was not like the pictures, the bed-very uncomfortable , very small, more like a single bed than a double one.

    The sheets and the bathroom were clean. The room had an electric heater. The location.
