    There was a fire alarm at midnight - no coordination and no one told us what to do or what was going on.

    The beds were very hard and it was difficult to sleep comfortably without aching in the morning. The rooms were also incredibly small that even for just two people it was tight to move around in. If you're just using the rooms to sleep in, the smallness isn't that big of a problem. There was a closet to put bags in, but generally there isn't a lot of space to have stuff sitting without it getting cluttered or cramped really quickly. The bathroom in our room also smelt like sulfur/sewage. Luckily the smell was only in the bathroom and it didn't seep into the bedroom, but when we would use the toilet it was fairly strong. Just in general, the main hall/stairway of hotel had a slight "bathroom" smell to it. I'm not sure if this is a recent issue or something but it was noticeable. The water pressure in the shower is very low. But the temperature does stay hot for a while, so it was possible to shower after one another and get a hot shower.

    The hotel was super close to Kings Cross St. Pancras and numerous underground entrances, making it really easy to get around the parts of London we were interested in! We spent a lot of time wandering different parts of the city, then coming back to the hotel to drop off/pick up stuff and then continue. It was very convenient! It was close to numerous food options, so dining (even quite late) was definitely a possibility and very easy to do. We arrived earlier than the rooms were ready, but the staff was super nice and took our (small) bags and put them in the room for us while we ate. We were also able to leave our bags there after check out while we explored around the city a bit more. They were labeled with our room number and easy to pick up when we were ready to leave. There was a small portable fan that helped greatly with keeping the room nice and cool at night and the windows were able to be opened.

    When I paid originally it said that it was a communal toilet with other guested I paid the extra was then told it was just a toilet and sink no shower and I’d need to pay another £30 for that so I left it to come and find a toilet and shower so basically it was a scam for more money which I wasn’t impressed by.

    It had friendly staff, good location, felt it was safe to keep my stuff there

    Stated above

    IT's very near St. Pancras train station, and the tube station. So that was fantastic! It is a very old building, which I expected, but it was a VERY small room, which made it not very comfortable, and no lobby. It was great for one night before flying out and coming in from St. Pancras. But if you want a longer term stay, unless you're by yourself, not too comfortable. Great neighborhood! Pubs nearby, and a walking trail along the canal 15 minutes away. In Kings Cross neighborhood.

    This hotel doesn't have an elevator, so anyone staying on a floor that requires using the stairs might have to carry their luggage, which can be a bit tiring. However, we understand that it's due to the old building structure, so we weren't too bothered by it.

    This hotel is very close to King's Cross Station, making it perfect for those who need to travel to other cities by train. The location deserves full marks, and I really liked the staff who communicated well, were helpful, and answered our questions quickly and efficiently. Impressive.

    Lots of stairs to my room but someone helped me with my suitcase

    I hadn't realised that breakfast wasn't provided but it wasn't a problem at all as the owner of Fairway Hotel recommended a very friendly Italian restaurant just round the corner where I had an evening meal when I arrived & breakfast the next morning before getting the Eurostar to Paris.

    Size of the room it would ok as a single room with an overnight bag. The state of the room was not great. Ensuite was so small and the curtain rod kept falling down. Flooring at the footing of the bed is deteriorated.

    Not alot, for the money we paid. Close to train station. Lucky we stayed only one night. The staff were amazing!

    The room was tilted to one side, pillow side down as well so it was a little strange.

    Very good location, close to St Pancras/ King’s Cross Station. The hotel isn’t trying to be what it isn’t, so it’s cheap for central London and does what it needs to if you just need a bed for the night.
