good stay in London

The hotel was in a good location near the city centre (close to subway stations). And we had a cosy stay!

The rooms are a bit small and you can hear outside noise sometimes.

Good Stay for 3 days!

- Friendly staff - Close to Oxford Street, from where all spots in the area are within walking distance - free luggage storage - free tea & coffee - quiet - own bathroom

- very small room for 4 people - one bed very small for two people, okay for couples but too small for friends - a bit dusty, dirty & broken walls

Excellent staff and would stay again.

Great location, lovely staff, excellent breakfast and good rooms (the single rooms are tiny but comfortable and all you need)

I was put into an unrenovated room at first but the staff swapped me the next day and were so helpful. So although the first room was not good I still had a great experience (second room was super)

Location, location, location.

The location is fantastic and the staff are very friendly. There was a ceiling fan, which helped immensely with the hot weather.

The single beds in the twin rooms weren't great quality, but we only stayed for 1 night, which was fine.

The location is fantastic

The room was tiny and quite shabby. The bathroom/shower felt like in a caravan. And the smells from the kitchen filled the entire room in the morning which was quite unpleasant.

Pleasant stay in Russell Square area, London.

Typical old school English decor. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Close to 3 tube stations, surrounded by universities and a couple of gardens and free museums. Bed linen was clean. Ample towels and bathroom products available. Tea and coffee making facilities available in room. Breakfast was good. Felt safe with hotel door closed at all times.

No lift, no window or extractor in bathroom and no AC. Two fans available but would definitely not be enough for summer months. We struggled with heat in June. No mini fridge. We struggled to access the room being on the third floor with no lift especially with luggages. The double bed was very small and positioned against a wall so difficult for one of us to access.

Cozy and charming hotel, excellent location!

Great value and excellent location! The rooms are small and cozy - very charming. Decorated to feel like you're stepping back in time. Terrific coffee shop and bookstore across the street!

I was a solo traveler and my room was perfect for me. It was a very small room - though with clever use of space (good hangers, drawers, etc.). I'm sure that the double rooms are bigger; just a quirk that might not suit everyone.

Excellent location for our trip

The location was ideal - 5 min walk from Euston Station, 10 from St Pancras. 30 min walk to Camden Market, but easy to get underground to there too - station at the top of the street. Staff were really lovely and accommodating. Room was on the smaller size, but bed comfortable.

Lovely small hotel in perfect location for train travel or museum visit.

This lovely hotel was exactly what I expected. Yes the room was very small, but it's London. However it was still perfect in its petiteness. The bed was good if a bit small. The bathroom excellent, the tea (and cookies/biscuits) replaced daily, the towels fluffy, the internet fast. They also had sockets at the desk for a variety of international plugs. The breakfast was very good, lots of variety and the lovely ladies would cook your eggs however you wanted them. The location was PERFECT. We were traveling by train, first arriving at Euston Station and leaving a few days later from St. Pancreas, both a short walk away. Plus we were visiting the British Museum on the same street as the hotel!

The only suggestion I can make is the sockets next to the bedside table are at the same height as the shelf of the table. Making use of the plug meant moving the table; raising or lowering the bedside table would solve the problem.

What a nice stay

Even though the room was tiny, it was very comfortable and with a great bathroom. It was SUPER clean, which I really appreciated, and the mattress was great. The location is awesome, as it is very central. The rooms are quiet though, despite the location, because they don't face the street, but the back of the building. The host was lovely and even lent me a power adapter, as I had forgotten mine!

Breakfast was a bit expensive.

Wonderful and friendly staff. Affodable accommodation. Central & safe for a single female traveller.

The staff were incredible accommodating and welcoming. The breakfast (which was included in my rate) was great and had options for both vegetarians and non vegetarians. The room was clean and it was serviced every day. I had a package delivered while I was there and the staff received it with no problem and kept it for me until I returned in the evening.

The carpet in the room was quite worn which brought down the overall feeling of the room. There were almost holes in it between the 2 twin beds and in front of the bathroom. The room was clean but the worn carpet made it fee a bit depressing. It could do with a refresh.
