Overall we had a great stay here. The staff were really welcoming & friendly. The only complaint I would have is that the door does not lock from the inside which did give me a bit of anxiety. Otherwise no complaints!
The place was horrible. The doors didn't even close and the rooms smelled like sewage. Aside from being a walkable distance from Kings Cross, would avoid it if possible. Our clothes smelled of sewage after we left. The staff is very kind especially the gentleman from Brazil. He was super helpful and kind. We can tell they are doing the best they can, but the place needs a lot of work!
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.

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.
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.

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.
No complaints. Decent value compared with any of the big chain 3 star places nearby. Room was comfortable and staff were great. Just what I need for a quick overnight trip for work.
nice place with unbelievable attentiv staff, friendly and helpfull. amazing stay and awesome time.

Good basic hotel near kings cross
Good stay, they could do with some coat hooks in the room or some hanging space! Had all the basic amenities covered, and were very helpful when required.

Good base right near to kings cross, the guys were really friendly. We found some other residents quite noisy but this is no fault of the hotel. Room had everything needed. Were able to leave bags on check out to pick up later, really helpful.

The staff, service and kindness shown was refreshing. I will be booking again and look forward to the updated rooms, the sister hotel is lovely also.
Good stay! Room was super tiny, but we were only stopping through for a night, and it was super close to the train station, which is what we were aiming for. Staff made check-in and check-out super simple.
Close to Kings Cross. Staff were helpful and pleasant. The room was small but very clean. It was great for one night but would not be great for a long stay as there was very little storage for clothes- no hangers , plus the mirrors were too high to look into so it was impossible for shaving, makeup, hair etc.

staff was very nice but room quality poor and was not able to get good sleep
Great location! I love the self check in and check out. We could also leave our luggage the next day as we had a late train leaving london. The room was very practical for everything you need and in a great location! Would I stay again - yes!
A little bit noisy and shower was cold but couldn’t find anyone to help fix it.
Modern decor and easy to find/check in.
Clean and comfortable just a pity about the above.
