We had a family room with 2 double beds which was perfect for a 1 night short stay. The room was clean and had everything we needed. The only thing that lets it down is that it is already looking a bit tatty despite being quite new.

Bare bones accommodation. REALLY small rooms, no mini fridges in the room, no utensils at the front desk, etc. staff was nice and did what they could do but helpful where possible. And It’s cheap and a modern build so decent accommodation. And hey they give you a couple water bottles and tea bags in the room.

Perfect hotel for a short stay! I needed a room for an overnight stay so booked a single room. The room was small but perfect for what I needed. It was very clean and I felt safe, comfortable and had a good nights sleep. Only a five minute walk from King’s Cross and Staff were friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay here again.

The hostel staff were friendly, helpful and professional. At first the area around the property looked a little sketchy, but just down the street are two VERY popular asian restaurants, an Italian restaurant, and around the corner, there is a very popular Vietnamese Restaurant. Smokers are a dirty lot and leave their butts on the sidewalks and it makes the area look dirty. The sidewalk in front of the hostel should be swept more often. Inside the hostel, everything was nice and clean.

Older hotel, but in good condition, rooms were good size and clean, staff on the front desk were really friendly. Area around the hotel isn’t the nicest especially on an evening- it’s 8 minutes walk to King’s Cross, which was conceived for our early Eurostar.
