A place to rest your head

We stayed here due to a train time. You get what you paid for, a room to put your head down. It was fit for purpose.

No surprise overnight stay

Good location but no staff on site, checked in and were given 2 keys one for front door and one for room. Luckily got ground floor room after asking for it as no lift and big cases. Small room as expected in London.

The hotel is quite poor. We pretty much had only a square room in a basement with toilet. We could hear Subway in the night and people walking in the room above us. Mattress was quite terrible and the toilet was dirty when we came into our room.

Considering the price you would expect a bare minimum of clean bed sheets. The pillow had old mascara stains on, and the bed sheet and numerous weird stains on it....the bathroom was located up the stairs and was also filthy. Bed was very uncomfortable and was very noisy with people coming and going. Please don't stay here, better off staying in a hostel

Great little hotel near King's Cross station, my only gripe is I prefer two pillows and lots of stairs to navigate. Other than that great guy who welcomed us.

It was terrible. I have sight problems. The bedroom had no bathroom. It was outside up winding stairs. Very dangerous. You could not get into the bathroom quickly. It was padlocked and you had to open it with a key. Not a star rated hotel.

Was fine for a 2 star hotel. Our room was tiny; two people will have a hard time moving around at the same time. Bathroom was extremely small- shower and half a sink. It served its purpose. Room was made up and cleaned every day. If you leave a note for any needs, someone supplies it for when you return. No one mans the front desk

Disappointing

The room was tiny and should not have been classified as a double. More like a single that crammed in another bed.
