We stayed in room G and arrived early to drop our bags off which was brilliant and they were put in our room. The room was a good size and clean, the double bed was a bit uncomfortable but the sofa bed was a lot better. It was a very warm room and was unable to find any way of turning the heating down, however, as it was late when we got back to the room we didn’t look too much in to it.

A bit sub par

Not staffed after 5pm but the key codes worked (dodgey key box code entry didn't work at first). The place was not very clean. I guess reasonable value for the area. Kettle in the room was filthy, maybe the previous guest had boiled soup in it.

The only thing that was good and easy was the check in. The room looks absolutely nothing like the pictures. When I got to the room, the window was wide open and was difficult to close. There was a slight smell of mould in the room. The bed linen was dirty and some of the furniture was already broken (the door handles on the wardrobe in the bathroom were missing and the drawers on the desk wouldn't stay closed).

Good value Hotel.

Hotel was in a convenient location for our theatre trip which made life easy. The advance check in and accompanying instructions on gaining entry to the hotel outside of reception hours were very helpful, and once we'd manoeuvred around the enormous front door, all went well. The room was a good size with a good supply of tea and coffee, the only slight let down was one of the windows wouldn't close fully which meant the street noise was slightly invasive at times. Overall though it was a positive experience and i would stay there again with no hesitation.

Close to an early morning cafe at a nearby tropical medicine school, close to two or three second hand bookstores, one gay bookstore, and a few blocks away was a massive well stocked new book store.

The room was extremely basic, which is fine for me when I'm down in London for work. But it had a terrible smell of drains, which seemed to be coming from the shower. The shower itself was little more than a dribble of water. Not somewhere I'd stay again

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.
