Clink7878 Kings Cross Road, London, WC1X 9QG (Show map)
Good,
Score from 1258 reviews
“ Price and location were an incredible bargain. Right next to one of the main subway stations (Kings Cross) was very beneficial. I also stayed there due to its proximity to the British Library, which was very close, and the walk in the morning was actually quite pleasant. ”

Location was good and the room was clean. Price was not low, but fair. The Breakfast is poor, just slices of bread with jam. The space in the room is very limited, the size of beds are too narrow. People are noisy after 11pm.

I liked the court house with basement bar. Great atmosphere and easy to meet new people from all over. No wifi in the rooms but the wifi in the common areas was good.

Very affordable and cheap for a night stay in London. I only needed a place because I would not have made the last coach / train home and needed a place to stay. Staff were friendly and helpful enough and I booked in at 1am so that says a lot! Well you get what you pay for when you are sharing a place with several other strangers. Everyone one was quiet and considerate to others I felt. You do get the snorers but again, what do you expect when sharing room with 'grown ups'!?!

First of all, I would like to thanks all staff for all services provided. They were helpful and professional. Also the value of money. I am so grateful. In addition to that, the hotel has urge different space to relax and clean as well. Thanks Smoking area should be a bit far from the main door. Some people are allergic to the cigarette smoke like my self.

Clink78 was a great place: Cool rooms, great people, kind and helpful staff, awesome bar downstairs... It's designed with fun and young spirit. Oh, the kitchen is very wide and useful, and breakfast food is simple but good. It was a real pleasure! Thank you! :) Just the fact that you need to bring your own towel/buy one for 2£... That's about it, really, it's a great place.

I wanted to check in at 9 am and wanted to stay for the day. I booked the place for 2 nights (starting previous night) and mentioned the same in my comments at booking.com. I also called the hotel on the previous day and informed them about my travel plan. However, to my surprise, they cancelled my previous night booking and told me that there is no room available for me when I reached there. They also mentioned that the comments mentioned on booking.com are not passed to them! Neither are the calls to the number given on booking.com are given to them! I had travelled for 10 hours to reach there and this was like a bad blow. Thankfully, the staff on duty helped me but this is the worst nightmare for any traveller.

It was really clean. Reception staff were much friendlier than last time I stayed. I was offered a transfer to the smaller hostel in Grays Inn road as this was better location for me. This was much appreciated and done with no fuss. No complaints at all.
