The perfect location from King's Cross station and Euston station. The facility of the hotel is good for the rate.

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.
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
The hotel was convenient to the Russell Square Underground station. I felt the area was safe.

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

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
Great value...
Don't expect the Savoy but great value travelling through...
Breakfast basic but again, great value....
Would recommend and i will be staying again..
Location EXCELLENT!!

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.
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!

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.
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.
