8 / 10Excellent·Aug 2026
I chose the hotel for its location and price. I was positively impressed with the overall quality of the accommodation given the accessible price for the central London area. The room was a very good size, well aired and clean.
The only thing that I found unpleasant were the towels: they were clean, however, they had a very unpleasant smell (dust and mould) which then remained on my skin after use.

Great location, 10 min to Euston Station and close to British Museum. Room was small but perfect for a one night stay Room 12 had a coffee machine, tv, fan, mini fridge, shower and a double bed Overall would stay again
Quite loud at night and absolutely stunk of weed but that’s all out of their control. They don’t really have a luggage storage. You just leave it in the hallway and kind of hope for the best Also you have to check out at 10am but reception doesn't open til 11am so have to call if there's any questions but could just include the luggage info in the automatic check in message they send

We knew we'd barely be in the room and only wanted a place to sleep so went for a cheaper hotel option but we were pleasantly surprised! The room is very basic and small, definitely nothing fancy, but for the location and price, it was good for what we needed for one night. Would recommend if you're only wanting a cheap place to sleep after a gig at Wembley etc
Smell from the drains in the bathroom

For the price point I wasn't expecting much, it was however tidy and clean. We stayed as a four it was canny how we had the top floor only our two rooms so we where able to leave our doors open when getting ready as it was so hot during our visit. Having a fridge and fan also came in handy. Also a 10 minute walk from Kings Cross Station/ Underground. No need for a taxi etc would take x3 longer than walking so id recommend for location wise. Also made it easy to get to Wembley aswell being near the underground.
The room was tiny, and honestly very dated, the whole room needs TLC, like of paint, decor etc, the bed was advertised as a double but it had to be a small double felt so uncomfortable, noise from the street was awful during the night think double glazing could be the way forward.
