Fun family one night stay
Super wonderful staff who were friendly and amiable. A small issue with a non-working code was sorted swiftly and in a very professional manner.
If you have a dodgy back or sort joints the mattresses might not do you any favours but the room was perfect for a family of 4 about to go on holiday

Poor value for money hotel
Disappointed by quality of room which was in the basement next to the street. Very small considering the price paid.

Not what you see
Does not look like what it does on the pictures. Meant to look boutique-esk. We esstentially had a box room. No water, no service, a bed squished up against the wall and bumping into everything.

2/10 Poor
Expedia forgot to mention that this building doesn’t have a lift. We received a room at the 3rd floor taking very steep and narrow stairs. No chance to escape a fire,God forbid! The room is very small, the heating didn’t work so we had to use the hairdryer to heat the room and it smell terrible of chlorine.
If you have a certain age or reduce mobility do not book this hotel

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.

6/10 Good
Down side: One of the double beds was a broken camp bed. Broken window in the room. Shared patio which we didn’t know before we went and it was filthy, cigarette bits etc. no coffee in the room. Overall a but random.
Up side: Staff were really helpful. Great location for Kings Cross. No coffee provided in the room or reception
Okay for one night. I wouldn’t have wanted to stay longer sadly.

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.

2/10 Poor
Wouldn’t recommend.
The hotel does not look like the picture. It is run down. I was there with my daughter and did not feel safe at all. There was constant movement around the hotel and up the stairs. For a solo traveller needed somewhere to sleep: Probably okay! But for a family? No.
The bed sheets weren’t secured on the bed and the mattress was dirty. The location is right near construction so it was not pleasant to walk around.
The window opened wide and had no safety barriers. Very unnerving.
