100€ a night to be in darkest, ugliest, dirtiest, smallest place in london! Big scam! Extremly noisy at night. Doors are slaming all the time. Shared dirty bathrooms. Hitchy beds. Rubish isolation of windows... Not to any standard, just here to take the cash and run.

I chose this hotel based on two criteria - closeness to St. Pancreas and price. I had an early morning Eurostar train to Brussels and didn't want to get up too early in the am to get in from Oxford where I live. Bottom line, I wasn't too picky as long as I got a decent night sleep. Man did... More

For the budget price I didn't expect much, except cleanliness and friendly staff. Close proximity to Shaftesbury Avenue, China Town, Covent Garden and the British Museum was my priority. Room was clean, beds comfortable and breakfast ok. Room was hot and the heating was not on. It was a cool day/night in April! I was disappointed that breakfast didn't include... More

Rooms stink, the whole hotel stinks of bad food mixed with chlorine , shared bathrooms (2, only 1 w shower) are dirty day in day out, have no heating, malfunctioning light fixture, it takes five minutes pulling at the cord before it catches and turns on....

My son and I stayed in the ensuite room for 2 nights at the weekend. The accomodation is fine for what you pay for. The staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast service was quick and efficient and the food good. The room was clean and comfortable. The location was great 5- 10 min walk from Euston station.

We were a bit apprehensive before we got to the hotel regarding reviews on here. Yes, perhaps it could have been cleaner, but at the end of the day, we were only there overnight following our visit to the dominion theatre. The hotel is a 12 minute walk from euston station therefore saves paying £4.50 each on the tube. It's... More

We paid £69 for a double room with breakfast. Compared to other hotels in the area, this is outrageously cheap so we weren't expecting the level of quality some disappointed customers clearly do. We were very happy with our stay. Staff were friendly, helpful and welcoming on check-in. The ground-floor room was small and awkwardly laid out. I would describe... More
