This a terrible hotel. There is no elevator, no shower and toilet in the room. Only one shower and one toilet every each floor for 8 rooms. Noise all day and night. This is terrible experience in my lifetime.

Old out of date hotel. Needs gutting and starting again. Sharing showers and toilets are a thing of the past. They crammed as many rooms in to make profit which was not put back into the property

Great value and prefect location..

Great little hotel minutes from kings cross station. Very friendly and helpful staff. Rooms cleaned daily with fresh towels. The hotel itself is very quiet but can occasionally hear noise from the street but it didn't bother us. Very good value, would highly recommend.

We only stayed because we had an early train ride from St Pancras. Was good enough for that. Shares bathroom is tiny. I can’t recommend this place but I can’t really give it a bad review. For you backpackers it’s ok. It’s a hostel, not hotel and I wish I knew that.
