6/10 Good

The perfect location from King's Cross station and Euston station. The facility of the hotel is good for the rate.
Shirabe, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

So by London prices my stay was £105 for one night. However I feel that this price was far too high and I’ll list the negatives first. Room was very small. Decor was 1980’s and very poor The kettle was dirty. The bathroom was very small with shower next to toilet. There was a pubic like hair on my pillow and what looked like blood spots. The duvet cover has burn holes The toiletcistern lid was hanging off The hot water tap sometimes couldn’t be turned off all the time. The shower hot water was hard to operate. There were toenail clippings on the floor. It is in serious need of upgrade. Positives It was warm Was near transport links

Reasonable stay

Good stay for the price. Can understand previous feedback but we found this to be a reasonable stay for the money. Room wasn’t great but had all the amenities we needed prior to getting a train the following day.
Martin, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Perfectly decent stay. You get what you pay for and so we weren’t expecting 5 star but couldn’t fault it for what we paid. Perfect location for the railway station and Brunswick centre. Good clean bedding and everything we needed
Ann, 1-night trip

The hotel was convenient to the Russell Square Underground station. I felt the area was safe.
Roderick, 6-night trip

4/10 Fair

Convenient location.Bed was comfortable, linens and towels clean. The staff were pleasant. Mould and mildew in the bathroom, very strong and noxious smell, horrible.
Randa, 5-night trip

6/10 Good

Tiny little room, with a miniscule washroom; not the comfiest bed ever, but OK. I arrived early, well before check-in time, but they were very good about cleaning it and letting me in early. Ideally placed for travel from St Pancras; on transit routes for getting around.
Brigid, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Cheap and good location, facilities as expected however, struggled to get hot water for the shower (we were told after we needed to leave the water running a long time. Staff were not very friendly and made us feel like we were an inconvenience for simply checking in! Facilities said luggage storage is available, it was but it was just left in the corner of the breakfast room - we appreciated it all the same. By far the worst thing (and the main reason for low scores and why we will NOT return) was that during our breakfast a staff member cleared his throat loudly and then spat into the bin next to the coffee machine - disgusting ! He then continued to clear tables ! We left immediately!

Quick London Trip

Quick check-in, friendly staff, nice clean room, great location near Underground & Eurostar stations.
Dennis, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Property was in a good area and accessible to the place we wanted to get to and from. The interior of the property is very dated, which didn't bother us, but the room was very small for 3 people, and the bathroom was extremely small. The pictures online of the rooms dont show how dated and small it all is. The room was so warm as well and had no ventilation, really. Cleanliness of the room is also very basic. Not sure we would re-book this hotel again.
Sarah, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Clean, a little dated but very cheap.

Great value. Staff were fantastic. Room was very basic but clean and all you need for a brief stay. I was only sleeping there, much better than anything near this price (multi occupancy hostel, no thanks). Perfect for my one night to avoid the replacement bus service and be fresh for work in the morning.
Peter, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

You get what you pay for. The beds were clean and comfortable, the decor is dated and the buildings have a musty smell. The staff were polite and helpful. Breakfast was interesting and certainly not a continental but toast and cereal was available. The area for eating was very cramped and small but tables were cleared quickly and efficiently. Location is very central and very quiet. I would stay again due to the cost and the comfortable beds of the beds.
Theresa, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Decent price, great location, good service

Its a decent hotel at quite center of london. For a decent price. Much better than staying at the airBnB or hostels. Its close to chancery lane tube station and has plenty restaurants nearby. The breakfast is okayish but the hosts are very hospitable.
