Location was around the corner from the train to Paris, the one bonus to the property.

Travel, United States of America

Good location, close to Kings Cross and probably the cheapest private room you can find that is this central.

Clementine, United Kingdom

The location for early morning departure from St Pancreas.

Wayne, Canada

There was nothing that was good about this property aside from the location to the train station.

Diane, United States of America

The location is very nice and central, just a short walk away from the tube station. So the price you pay is quite good I think.

Ellie, United Kingdom

Only positive thing is the location, but frankly, pay a bit more and stay at one of the hotels across the street. Trust me.

Cristina, Netherlands

The location was the only good thing about this accomodation. We were only using this as a cheap place to lay our heads and thankfully it encouraged us to get out and explore.

Jacqui, New Zealand

The premises were appalling, but the staff were friendly.

Sarah, United Kingdom

The receptionist (He told me his name but I forgot, Im sorry!) was lovely and very helpful. Location was very good.

Sara, United Kingdom

Really comfy bed, very central and close to the kings cross.

“Mixed review”

The shared bathroom is literally a mans toilet in his house with a sign on the door. The bathroom was very unclean and old. My fiance didn't want to go downstairs on her own to use it.even then she refused to use the shower. It reminded me of some of the hostels ive used in laos and vietnam which cost £2 a night
The room was clean. The sheets smelled good. It was comfortable.the owner seemed lovely. The budget guest house is quite central and easy to find from the train station. At £41 you get what you pay for. Would reccomend for 1 night for people on a low budget like us

“Terrible conditions. Should not be visited by anyone ”
- • Leisure trip

Terrible hygiene both in my room and shared washroom. Room itself terrible. Broken chest drawers. WiFi didn't work. Large hole in the wall. I actually found a person in it after I checked in and got my keys. Not sure if it was a staff member or previous occupant.. Sitting on the bed and using her phone. Left when I showed her my keys without any explanation. Not even a curtain on the window but a scrap of material. No sleep due to the proximity of the trains which ran all night. Property itself electrically unsafe with many bare sockets. This should not be renting rooms while it has builders working. Unsafe conditions. I will like to request a refund of my money in full.
Nothing. Felt ripped off
