    Hard to find a dislike. Could use a refurb but then it'd be more expensive. You get what you pay for

    Value for money hotel and friendly staff.

    The sink had a few hairs in it where it looked like someone had shaved over it and then it hadn’t been cleaned out fully so just needed a wipe out really.

    Really central location. We had to book this hotel very last minute after our train was cancelled quite late into the evening. It was only a five minute walk from Kings Cross which was ideal! Really comfortable bed, very good WiFi connection in our room. Was a bit worried that as it was above a pub it would be noisy but didn’t hear any noise which was brilliant.

    The shared bathroom could have been a bit cleaner.

    In walking distance of St Pancras International trainstation, on a lovely street corner. Simpel but nice little hotel. Friendly owner and staff. I could use their washing machine and dryer to do my laundry.

    Admittedly I booked quite late so my room cost more than an earlier reservation but it was too expensive. A single room with shared bathroom should be maximum €100, no more. But room and bathroom are clean, but in need of updating.

    Central Station is one of oldest established Gay pubs in London, and it’s great that they have a small hotel based above. Friendly staff and a fun pub, just round the corner from Kings Cross St Pancras stations, and in a quiet road.

    The interior feels like it could use an update. Walls were thin… I could hear my neighbour snoring like a freight train. Shared bathroom isn't ideal, especially if you're in a rush in the morning.

    Great location with plenty of restaurants and entertainment around. The staff were friendly and showed me to my room. The shower was hot with plenty of pressure.

    The room wasn’t very clean, bed sheets were with stains. The room was on the 3rd floor and it’s quite complicated to go there with heavy bags.

    Good location near the Kings Cross station (7 min walk). Calm and cozy place, comfortable room with hairdryer, iron, cattle and everything for tea and coffee. The staff was friendly and helped us with suitcases. It’s a good place to stay in London for this price.

    The only slight downside is there are lots of steep narrow stairs up to the top floor - fine for me but bear this in mind if you have mobility issues or a really big bag.

    Small but comfortable room. Don't book this expecting a luxury hotel, but it is good value, clean, and comfortable with a shared bathroom. The location is excellent - it is in a pretty and quiet area less than 10mins walk from Kings Cross. The staff/owners were just lovely. The shared bathroom is fine, the toilet was blocked the morning I stayed but they sorted it out very quickly! I hadn't realised when I booked that it is literally above an LGBTQ bar - which made me feel right at home :) Unfortunately I didn't get chance to sample the bar but there was no noise or anything.

    LNo lift, awkward to access the rooms. Staff helped with suitcase checking in, but were not available in the morning for checking out. No breakfast provided. No proper check-out, you just deposit your keys in a box and go. Bathroom very small, tiny shower cubicle with too-short curtain, peeling paint.

    Very clean Friendly staff These are basically a few rooms above a pub, and so are OK for the set-up. Glass bottle of water and glasses provided.

    I have no complaints.

    The staff was friendly and extremely helpful and made sure that hot and cold beverages were readily available. As it was a very hot day in London, the fan in the room was another plus point. The hotel is only a ten-minute walk away from King's Cross Railway Station.
