Stayed here for 2 nights as our friends had booked in here. First of all it's in a great location with it being only a 2 minute walk to kings cross. Unfortunately you pay on check in rather than check out. If it had been the other way round I would have left! We had a triple room which was... More

The location just across the road from st pancras and kings cross and 10min walk from euston was great as we could leave our bags and get stuck in to sight seeing also we could leave our bags free of charge in locked luggage room when we checked out. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The decor was horrendous... More

It's OK. Small room and very small WC, but clean and calm. The bed are ok, a LED TV and breakfeast included (British breakfeast). Very positive: free wifi and location (+/- 70m undergraund and St. Pancras International Rail Station). Very central. Since almost hotels in London are expensive, this 90€/day for a double room is not cheap or expensive. You... More

They get you here with the payment on arrival - i personally would have refused at departure if i had the option to pay then. It was small, the shower was awful along with the temperature of the water, poorly hidden by a pound land shower curtain too. The bed was squeaky and uneven and uncomfortable. The toilet was communal... More

The hotel itself is pretty average but the price is decent, especially considering the location of the hotel and how close it is to the city centre. Staff of the hotel is very friendly, rooms are tiny but very clean and there was a cute window in our bathroom. There was no hairdryer in the room, but we were given... More

I had a single room with private toillet.There was no door between the toillet and the room so I had to keep my window open when I used the toillet or the shower in the cold February!There was only a small piece of soap next to the sink and a large towel, nothing more.

Very basic... Requires updating in my view... Not clean, found head hairs in bed... And carpet awful. Very small. If you want just basic it's ok. Underground very close and area nice and quiet. Breakfast fine. Didn't really feel it was worth the money. Needs improvements .
