Expedia should have entering requirements.
I could not sleep. Because, the house is located over the tube route. There was smell and all the beds were broken. Utterly terrible experience. I wouldn`t pay such amount of money for budget guest house. Expedia should have some entering requirements. You failed it. I`ll never use Expedia again

Yuck...
The rooms and halls were decrepit, in disrepair, and dirty. The bathroom was worse. The staff were unhelpful and no one seemed to know where the manager was or how to get ahold of him. Travellers beware: there will be no refund.

budget hotel - fine for a night or two
It's ok for a night or two but you get what you pay for. The trains go past right outside the hotel and everything's very old but it's fine as just a place to stay

Even for the money this is pretty grotty!
Other reviews have noted the train noise; I didn't find it intrusive even though the whole hotel rattled slightly. Traffic noise was worse, as was the noise from other rooms in the hotel. The room was OK although the bed was very lumpy and the pillows negligible. However even with the radiator turned off the heat was unbearable and the window wouldn't open. The bathroom, however, was icy cold. Shared facilities is fair enough but there need to be enough to go around. There only seemed to be one toilet, in the same room as the bath. The floor was extremely slippery and all the facilities were in poor condition.

Don't go there
Apart from there being a working tv and kettle and lots of tea/coffee and milk, (and a friendly hotelier), the experience was one of the worst in my life. We were in the basement, with a cupboard full of junk and rat poison on the floor, the corridors were ridiculously narrow and probably wouldn't pass fire regulations, the mattress was horrendously uncomfortable and the bedding was sparse. We felt unsafe all night, slept with the light on, and left as soon as we could. We would never go back there.

Sleepless night as my room was road facing and very loud traffic noises all night. Also noises from next room disturbing whole night.

It doesn't get much worse than this
Convenient for Kings Cross and St Pancreas International stations. Hotel looked after our luggage. But pretty dreadful. Squeaking bed, high pitched whine from the TV, no chair, dodgy toilets, intermittent Wifi.

Convenient located near to Kings Cross.
We booked this hotel based purely on the proximity to Kings Cross - it was okay for an overnight stay, but I would not recommend it for longer stays due to the constant noise from passing trains very close to our room.

Upon arrival we were sent to our room which we found to have been recently painted and still wet. Certain items o clothing and a holdall are now ruined. No apology or offer of compensation from staff. There were live earth wires and the place was dirty

It was terrible
Our reservation was screwed up and we had to switch rooms after the first night (we stayed there two nights altogether). The showers did not work. The place was under cosmetic construction. But it did not help, as the walls and ceiling had cracks, the washroom doors did not close, and the floor was moving when we walked on it. I was scared there. I will not stay there again even if they pay me.

Does What It Says On The Tin
Budget Hotel. Good Location, you get a key for your room and the front door, that means if your out late no worries. Enjoyed my stay, accommodation was fairly basic but the surrounding area offered a variety of resturants, there was an off licence just down the road for those forgotten toiletries etc. Enjoyed my stay.

Try to avoid it
I have been staying in many guest houses in the UK and this one is definitely the worst. Try to avoid it if possible.
