Frankly disgusting -dirty wee stained toilet and floor, no soap, shampoo etc,, damp and the wallpaper sellotaped on… total disgrace… plus hat to wait 2 hours for a code to even access this total hole by which time too late to find eslewhere

2/10 Poor

Lots of ants in the room. Bed’s horrendously uncomfortable. Shower was that bad I’d rather not get in it. The tray was split in 2 with a very poor silicone repair holding it together. There’s a coffee machine with no water tank. The staff are great and, Pedro was fantastic when checking us in but, the rooms need a serious overhaul.

This was a last minute booking and I understand we were close to the tube system. Check in process was easy. However, the overall room was not pleasant. I'm not complaining about the size of the room, because yes, it was small and I expecting hat, but the room layout was awkward. We were staying in the basement so we heard the the subway well into the night. The bed was so worn out it was shaped like a banana and you could feel the springs. It was extremely warm down there. The room had an AC unit but no way to turn it on that I knew of. It looked like it was just installed because the drywall in the ceiling was cut out and pieced back. Even though we had the window open, the amount of people smoking outside near by made us keep it closed.

The staff were amazing. The kind person who checked me in, sorted my WiFi issues and lent me a phone charger was wonderful and I was so appreciative of his support. Excellent value for money and the location is super. Would stay again and recommend.

Room wasn’t great, wallpaper hanging off the wall, tv had no signal and I had to try walk around with the aerial to get a signal! Kitchen had the bare minimum in terms of cooking

Check in great. Comfy bed. Plenty of hot water in shower. Kettle and cup but no tea or coffee. Somebody else’s Burger King paper bag left in room. Toilet seat broken and not fixed to WC. One clothes hanger. Broken window blind slats.

6/10 Good

It was really really really hot, there weren’t any staff around to help us other than some guy sat at a desk 24 hours doing his own stuff, the bathroom bin hadn’t been emptied and the tap in the sink in room 41 was literally coming off of the sink. It’s a good place to stay if you’re coming in and out and really really convenient (2 minutes from Kings Cross station). Not a lot of room, could barely fit two people in the room but it had a tea set, body wash, towels, a hair dryer and a TV provided.

8/10 Very good

The accommodation was in the perfect location for kings cross. A couple minutes from the station. There was a delay with checking in but these things happen. The staff were lovely and kept our bags for us while we went to explore whole waiting to check in. The room was nice, it had a double bed, a sofa bed and a single, on suite and small kitchen area. It was great for overnight but If staying for longer the lack of an area to hang out would become an issue and the sofa bed was a little hard. Decorating was nice but marks on the wall could do with a touch up with some paint in areas again nothing dramatic. Id stay again for the price. It was a warm and comfortable overnight stay in a great location.

4/10 Fair

The hotel is currently undergoing refurbishment, which is positive, but no effort was made to minimise the impact of that on other guests, and there was no acknowledgement from staff that building materials lying in corridors might be unusual. Our room was unrefurbished, meaning it was tired, and non-working lights exposes a general lack of care. Email communication is strange, with many and repeated messages about the check-in process, including AFTER the stay

2/10 Poor

Ha, that photo is so far from the reality. My room was so dirty. I don't think anyone has wiped dust in 10 year. All radiators, shaower etc where caked in rust, no point putting your towel to warmup or dry there. Just grim. The advertised safe in the room didn't work, it was locked. I was later told they don't have the key to them. So don't expect to leave any valuables there. It was meant to have a receptionist, didn't see one until I left in the morning. So if you are lone femal traveller looking for a manned hotel, don't go here. I called the number twice given as contact and left a voicemail as nobody answered. NObody ever called me back. Absolutely shocking place.

Fun family one night stay

Super wonderful staff who were friendly and amiable. A small issue with a non-working code was sorted swiftly and in a very professional manner. If you have a dodgy back or sort joints the mattresses might not do you any favours but the room was perfect for a family of 4 about to go on holiday
