The rooms are very small. We didn’t hang out in the room as we were busy out and about seeing the sites. It worked out well for a place to sleep and clean up. Very glose to public transit which made it very easy to get to anywhere in the city.
It was convenient for a 1 night stay prior to getting on the Eurostar at 8 pm. It's a small room and bathroom but clean and comfortable bed for 1 night.
The hotel is a great distance to the train station and the bed was really comfortable. The only two downsides was the noise from the underground below and our room had a door to the outside as we were in a basement room and it made me feel uneasy.
It was perfect for what I needed. Had an early morning outbound train to catch, and couldn't risk overnight engineering works overrunning, meaning I'd miss the train. So, needed somewhere affordable and comfortable right near the station. I found what I needed.
Clean decent bed. No shower gel and very small room with no wardrobe but it was clean and had enough hangers to hang what we needed.
Perfect for a small break in London.
Tiny little room but very convenient in London, so not unexpected. A little worn but clean and super nice staff@

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

Room good but lack of en-suite bathroom a problem, though I suppose it's to be expected at the price

Nice place, shame about bathroom being upstairs
2nd time here and first time around I thought I had a shared bathroom. Turns out that it was just mine, but it's up a flight of stairs from a room near the from door. This should be a bit clearer on the room description.
Other than that, nice comfortable double bed, big TV, warm and clean
I was put in a ground floor room and could smell people smoking outside. The room was good and clean. I had a separate bathroom which was halfway up the stairs and was a bit difficult to get in and out of.
My furniture was literally falling apart. I could hear the neighbors flushing toilets and coughing. This was a quick book in between countries as we hopped through Europe, If I was not desperate for something affordable in British pounds for a quick turn around I would have checked out. there was not even anyone at the "Front desk" to make a complaint, ask for extra towels, nothing. The location is great for the international train station (walking distance) but other than that, it is falling apart and needs a lot of TLC. Horrible customer service, literally only saw someone when checking in. Toilet had poop on it that I had to clean (thankfully I travel with my own cleaning kit), carpet had not been vacuumed in months, you can literally see dust bunnies along the edges. TV was hung crooked and channels did not work. Sheets were horrible and itchy, I was nervous to sleep in them. Horrible experience on our first night in London.

Very close to Kings Cross station and St. Pancras International.
Fine for a night when working early the next day.
Staff were very friendly and helpful.
Reception is not 24 hours. Shutter was closed when I left at 6am, so left the keys behind a leadlet holder on the counter.
Shared bathroom was basic, but ckean.
Noisy street outside, but is in a busy area so expected.
Overall was fine for my requirements, reasonable price for a Friday night on Central London and very easy to check in.
Excellent location near the train stations and bus stops. Tiny rooms. Tiny bathroom. Tiny sink. But it was clean and location was most important for us. No elevator. Narrow stairways. No conditioner, only little packet of shampoo. One bar of soap. Kettle and water provided in room. Coffee provided in room and cookies and biscuits! No safe. Friendly check in service. Free WiFi. It met our needs and would return here.

You get what you paid for bearing in mind that London is an expensive city. The room was small, a bit grubby and run down, but location was great.
We read the reviews after booking and to be frank we were expecting much worse- yes there is nobody in the reception most of the time, and yes you will have to carry your own bags, but this is London- street noise was minimal and there were no loud drunks during our stay (but we werent there for the weekend). If you intend to visit the city and not spend any time in your room other than to sleep then this might be a good option- we had a family room for 4 including 2 teens and it was ok.
Ear plugs are recommended.
This property is one of those you have to come back and think what made you pick it. Staff was very friendly and location was great but the property itself and the condition of it was terrible. The expedia description said this room is air-conditioned but there was no way there was ac installed anywhere. Luckily for us the weather was rather cold in May and there was no need for ac. The size of the bathroom was too small, it was a struggle to do anything in there. The shower had mold in some sections of the doors. The room was crowded with beds, nothing else could fit in. Very claustrophobic experience. There are other properties in the same location, they were 20-40 bucks more a night and at least from outside they looked like a proper hotel. I really hope this isn't London standard at this price range. Will not be coming back.
