Good sized room, fridge was a bonus, clean and great location.

6/10 Good

Had everything we needed for our single night stay, comfortable bed, teas/coffees etc. Location was close to British museum and easy 25 min walk to Covent Garden. Average rating mainly because it was a good middle of the road accommodation. Would use again.

8/10 Very good

The room was small and basic but as per London standards. Bed was comfortable but no air-con, which normally in England isn't a problem but we visited on the hottest day in May, there was an old air blower tower but it didn't really do much. However, even with the windows open and being next to a restaurant it wasn't too noisy and we slept well after our long day out. It was perfect for our needs as simply a base of operations for central London. A quick walk to the tube, really lovely area with lots of nice cafes and a fabulous Mediterranean restaurant. The owner was very accommodating and let us drop our suitcase off early so we could go off and enjoy the sights before check-in. TV reception was spotty but again we weren't there for that. Price for the accommodation was definitely reasonable and i would recommend.

Great little hotel. Perfectly situated for my visit (came to see a show at the BBC). Check in was easy. The reception has someone there for some hours during the day but you’re given a door code for outside those hours. 5 mins walk from Russell Square tube station.

For the price it was excellent. Lovely Nespresso coffee machine and comfy bed. Perfect location. 8 mins walk from Euston and 2 min walk to tube. Safe area if travelling alone. It's not the Savoy but perfectly adequate for a short stay. Lovely bright room.

We spent one night before leaving London and this hotel was perfectly located within a easy 10 minute walk between St Pancas and Euston Stations. The street was a bit noisy at night but didn’t bother us really. The room was comfortable and perfect for our needs. Would definitely choose it again when visiting central London.

We had a very comfortable stay at this centrally located hotel, several minutes walk to the nearest Tube station. We arrived at 1:15pm and our room was ready. Having already checked in online, we just left our bags in the room and headed back out. Room was warm, comfortable and check out was as simple as leaving the room key in our room. Would recommend this property.

4/10 Fair

The shower did not have enough water pressure to wash soap off or extend into the rest of the shower cubicle, the water could only dribble down. The towels were dirty/stained. If you don't cover the drains then the room stinks of sewage. The bed was comfortable at least.

Weekend stay for two

Good location. For london the room was a good size. On top floor which meant we could leave windows open as so hot. Place a little dated but clean. Nice to have fridge & tea marking facilities. Bed base ripped & in poor condition.

8/10 Very good

The property is in an ideal location, very close to Euston train station and has some really good places to eat, drink and shop close by. We had breakfast at the Sandwich Street Kitchen which was out of this world, highly recommended. The accommodation is starting to look dated but is clean and in a quiet location. The staff are amazing, very friendly and took our cases in to our rooms on arrival. It was also handy to have luggage storage available as we needed to check out by 10am but our train was 6pm, which meant we could leave them there and spend the day in London. All in all a good experience and would stay there again.
