It's really hard to rate this place, it is possibly the worst place I've ever stayed but it was only £36 for a night. It provided towels, soap, tea, coffee. It's about 10/15 minutes walk from St Pancras/Kings Cross

Andrew, United Kingdom

No expectations, it was what I expected from a cheap hostel in a central location. If you expect more, you will be disappointed, if you just need a place to leave your luggage and roam around London, it will do its job.

Vibor, Spain

Location was brilliant, room was as expected (the clue is in the name!) Perfect for a one night stay and close to bars / underground. If you're expecting a Palace then this isn't for you. If you need a place to stay in a convenient location and don't tend to do much more than sleep, then this is ideal.

John, United Kingdom

Good value for money, near St Pancras St ,good Restaurants around.

Maria, United Kingdom

A little bit dated. But it is ok. Location is good. for a couple of nights is fine. It has a sink in the room, which is a bonus. Specially in the morning as I went to London for work

Sonia, United Kingdom

GOOD POSITION NEXT TO KINGS CROSS AND QUIET. BED IS COMFORTABLE.

Maurizio, Italy

The staff was nice and uncomplicated and the location was very good. And it is very cheap. The sheets and towles were clean.

Lisa, Germany

A good place to stay near King's Cross! Small but comfortable room with big bed, sink, wardrobe and little table (also TV, but we haven't used it. There are toilets between ground and first floor (with bath), and on the ground floor (with shower). Electric kettle with cups in the room, towels are changed every day. A very good place for travellers with a small budget who are not going to spend much time in the hotel.

Yuliia, Ukraine

The staff member who greeted us was friendly, the room was large, and the heating was working well. The location is also fantastic. My two friends and I enjoyed our night a lot.

Rhiannlily, United Kingdom

Good location, very cheap, friendly and helpful staff. Room was what you would expect for the price. It was clean but basic. Kettle/tea and hand basin in room.

“Disgusting and absolutely NOT worth the slightly lower price”
- • Couple
눉Don't stay here! In Kings Cross it is safer to pay more to be guaranteed a room that you will actually be able to sleep in at least. Despite confirming my arrival time and date with the hotel staff, I was locked out in the snow late at night but had paid upfront for the room. Plus - these photos do not represent what the hotel actually looks like and the staff don't seem to care.

눉Fungus, cold bathroom, overheated room, disgusting carpeting, dirty walls, blood stains everywhere, smell, lack of space, urban noises, squeaky beds, uneven floor, afraid to take a shower as the bathroom was disgusting. Need to pay additional 20quids if you're late with tour check in even few minutes. It doesn't say in the website before you make a reservation. The place looks as if it were about to get closed down as it feels it's going to fall down. Not worth a penny. Better spend more money and find something different. We have no idea why we've chosen this place in the first place. Will not recommend it to anyone.
눇Clean sheets, good location.
