Don’t Do It
Very poor, looks nothing like the photos in real life, it’s run down, dirty and the beds are terribly uncomfortable. £97 for that? I don’t think so. NEVER again

2/10 Poor

On arriving I found the sink blocked, no towels and there was a bad smell in the room (likely to be from the blocked sink). Contacted reception which is in the next door hotel. No other rooms. This is a budget hotel, right, so do keep this in mind when booking. Only good thing is that it’s close to Kings Cross, but was up at 6 am and decided to find somewhere away from hotel to wait on my train later in the morning.

No heating, no blankets and no information
I checked in online, which was great. They sent all the information by text and email. However the toilet wasn't easy to find and the radiators didn't work. There was no extra blanket and it was freezing during the night. Worst night, I've ever had. I'm now ill

Miserable
Parking wasnt available. Rooms dirty and dated. Bathroom was tiny. Hairs in bed. Reception lad was canny though. Would have complained but had to leave early before traffic wardens were about.

Grubby but good location
The room was grubby, bathroom wasn’t very clean and only one pillow per person. Good location. Check in was automatic but did give later check in time than advertised. Wouldn’t stay again. Bed is not comfortable and strange set up where the extractor fan is in the toilet but not the bathroom / shower.

Basic property, price was a lot less than other cheap hotels but it’s very basic. Worth the stay if I’m you’re after no frills

Nice enough
Does what it says on the tin! We picked it because of the proximity to the Eurostar for an early morning train. Couldn’t have stayed there more than one night because the room was small but did exactly what we needed it for, somewhere to sleep! Loved the ease of check in and not having to faff around with keys!

Much more then what I was expecting for this price! Normally you get a room the size of a closet in London for the price I paid, but not at this hotel! The room was not fancy but huge and it had a kitchen so I could get groceries. Also the location is perfect! Every metro line in the city comes right there! No transfers necessary.

We didn’t pay a lot for the property and expected it to be basic which it was. It was clean & tidy, staff were friendly also. Strange layout in terms of the shower being in the kitchen so if anyone wanted to make a cuppa and you wanted a shower you’d be totally visible. They have tried to make the best use of the space by giving you kitchen facilities but when there are 4/5 in the room I’d rather have had a bigger bathroom with just a fridge / kettle to use than a shower in a kitchen. As a base the location is great. Staff were really helpful and friendly. Overall for what was paid it was ok and just as expected as a base.

Where are the toilets?
You don’t see anybody at check in - a code is just sent to you. Which would be fine if toilets were signposted well and/or easy to find. I stayed there for 2 nights (luckily I was working early and late) because I am still unsure where the toilets are here. The room was basic but the bed was comfortable and I stayed during high temperatures so it was nice that the window was large and easy to open for night times (which other hotels in the area don’t have). The shower was fine - just a cubicle room on each floor. The location is perfect.

An Okay Short Stay
I chose KX Rooms because it seemed to have a fun aesthetic. The graffiti style was a neat idea and it seemed very stand out for its location. Though, admittedly, it did need a refresh as it seemed to be getting obviously worn down. Though it does seem like some maintenance is happening. Check in is done a couple of doors down, and the guys running the place were friendly and helpful. The room given was on the third floor. There is no lift, so I don't recommend it if you have bulky luggage. While the room was comfortable and clean, it was really small, especially for two people. The double bed provided was a squeeze for two, though on the plus side, it was comfy; though, it really needed more pillows. Our ensuite bathroom was incredibly tiny. It reminded me a lot of a caravan toilet and shower. It was a cramped experience, only placated by the fact that it was clean and we consistently had hot water. Though, randomly, the water turned off once while I was in the middle of a shower, luckily only lasting a minute before reinstating itself. Not great really. Other niggles includes the radiator not working properly, one plug socket not working at all, and the window ledge wasn't properly attached. The fire door slamming could be felt through the wall, which disturbed sleep. While it had its issues, it was alright all in all to suit a short stay. Clean, comfortable and well located next to Kings Cross/St Pancreas for travel connections. It just needs fixing up to improve it.

Cons and Pros
Pros; Great Location, literally a couple of minutes walk to Kings Cross, Welcoming and Friendly staff - offered to store our bags, warm room with good heating and a comfy bed. Cons; We booked a "superior double en-suite" for our stay as the room advertised looked lovely, however it was the complete opposite - the room was in the basement, very cramped and barely any room to move around unless one at a time, it was also full of dust and dirt on the floor. The bathroom was down a small corridoor and my partner (6ft) had to duck to avoid hitting his head, it was freezing due to the window being broken and no heating, there was mould on the ceiling and shower curtain, and again just looked dirty and dated. Not sure what has happened in the last few months as we booked off reviews - perhaps we just got a shoddy room.
