if you are looking for a cheap place to stay in a nice neighbourhood close to transport and nice restaurants, but don't care to much about luxury this is the plane for you. Worn out and old but ok clean and very nice staff.

Emma, Denmark

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

Clementine, United Kingdom

The lady who dealt with us was accommodating and friendly. The location being next to Kings Cross which we needed the following morning was perfect.

Darren8683, United Kingdom

The room was as we expected for the cheap price, basic and simply a place to sleep. The room was on the small side but fine for what we were after.

Jasmine, United Kingdom

The property was a very good location 7 minutes from kings cross central. Bedding and towels were clean. Tv in room

Gemma, United Kingdom

The only thing I enjoyed was the fact the staff just left us alone completely.

Saturnina, United Kingdom

The location for early morning departure from St Pancreas.

Wayne, Canada

The location is fantastic, very short walk to kings cross

Ross, United Kingdom

Location was good - just 10 minutes from Kings Cross. The room was a decent size. Bedding and towels clean. There was a sink in the room and that was also clean. Didn't have bedbugs. Staff pleasant which, given the surroundings they have to work in, is an achievement in itself. If you're desperate for somewhere to put your head down close to Kings Cross and aren't at all fussed about room quality, this does the job.

Anna, United Kingdom

Clean bedding but carpet could have done with a shampoo

Disappointing
- • Leisure trip

눉The place did not feel warm. Carpet was not clean, taps were dripping, drafts through the window, TV did not work due to lack of signal, door had to be forced closed, every floorboard creaked and you could hear everyone else in the hotel. For the price I was paying I was not expecting a grand luxurious suite, but this felt too cheap.
눇The bed and sheets were clean.

- • Leisure trip

눉Shared bathrooms were dirty (bottom floor was like the bathroom in Evil Dead, post killings. 1st floor were more like the pre-killings so just a bit dirty), TV remote missing batteries, beds very squeaky, wifi very slow.
눇Cheap (for London). Good if you just need a bed and minimal everything else.

“Reasonable for a night or max 2”

눉The carpet is absolutely crap and old, I would not walk without my shoes in there. The toilet was decently cleaned however it was old, there were signs of mould/stain. Old structure with no signs of refurbish.
눇The position is quite comfortable and close to Kings Cross Station - the area is quiet however you can hear the tube vibrations on the building - so far cheap but decent if you do not pretend to have a king's accomodation.

눉The road this guest house is on seems quiet during the day, but really isn't, there was a lot of noice and as there isnt't double glazing it was very hard to sleep. It also did not help that the walls are paper thin and when someone was in the stairs it sounded like they were in or room, we could also hear people talk through the walls, and the beds were so squeaky we'd wake each other every time we moved even just a tiny bit. The bathroom is outdated and ice cold, the cold water tap in or room almost fell off when I tried to use it. The duvet is more like a sheet, which wasn't very comfy at all. The only thing this place has got going for itself is the price really.
눇Good location, close to Kings Cross and probably the cheapest private room you can find that is this central.

눉Everything! I would be ashamed to own this dirty, rundown heap. Wouldn't take much to make it a little better and I do not buy in to the whole "you get what you pay for" as obviously it wasn't going to be a 5* approach but for 50 pounds a night I expect a clean building to enter.
눇The lady who dealt with us was accommodating and friendly. The location being next to Kings Cross which we needed the following morning was perfect.
