Brilliant place to stay. Though it was roasting in room this weekend due to good warm weather and very humid in the room. This was even with the two fans in the room.

Great helpful staff.
This is not just for young people, it’s suitable for families and older age groups.
Have stayed several times in females only room and although small it’s good value.
Good location, walkable from Kings cross .
Will be returning soon .
