Room was reasonably clean but cramped and weathered. It had a very odd layout. Not what I was expecting.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The hotel was very clean and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The location was absolutely perfect also with lots of places to eat and drink close by and the retail shops an easy walking distance away! The only reason I gave one star for property condition is because we had a double room with a shared bathroom but the walls were very thin and so was woken a few times by other guests using the toilet! But to be far, for the cheap price, it was by far the best place we could have stayed! Thank you!

Very clean room, very close to Kings Cross Station, but the room was very quiet. The only let down was the shower head which seem to be broken and the water pressure was on low side. However, I was only staying 1 night so not really an inconvenience.

Excellent location. Walking distance to all forms of transportation. Clean facilities and helpful staff. They will even store your bags in a designated room after checkout if you want to explore a little more before you head back to the airport. There is no charge for bag storage.
