2/10
We left this property the day after checking in for a 5 day stay. Though the area was great, close to Kings Cross Station which made it very easy for sightseeing, we couldn’t bear to stay for the 5 days. The rooms are so pokey that it was unbearable. The walk up 3 flights of the extremely narrow staircase, dragging our 20 kg suitcases nearly killed us. I was terrified that either my sister or I would slip and fall the steps themselves were so short. Then there was the room! It was cool outside but the room was horribly stuffy. The window took 2 of us to open and then needed the thoughtfully provided block of wood to jam in to stop it from sliding down! It did nothing to cool the room. The beds were appalling though clean. The bathroom was very tiny. The sink was one that I’m sure had come from a dental surgery it was so small though a bigger one would not have fit! No shelves or any capacity to put anything, hang a towel or even get changed.
The curtains so old they were rotting.
The lady on reception was kind but the man barely looked at us.
If you’re planning a stay for more than a day in London, find somewhere else.
