Liked: Cleanliness
The room is basic, clean, bed was comfortable enough for a 2 night stay. My room was at the rear of the property so very quiet. No aircon but a fan was provided and that was adequate. Plenty of pubs around and walking distance to Kings Cross station. Overall good stay and good location.

Nice stay!

The check in at the Arriva hotel was seamless! The room was basic but had everything we needed, including a hair dryer, towels and a kettle with tea/coffee and cups! There was also a fan in the bedroom and we were facing the back of the building, so it was pretty quiet! There was a working TV with Free View channels!

The concierge just seemed really unfriendly and the place wasn't that clean. But it was cheap for a 2 night stay and it was close to the train.

A good room only hotel.

The reception staff were pleasant and friendly. When the television in my room didn't work, I was immediately offered another room. The room was clean and perfectly adequate for my purposes. No breakfast was available, but that didn't matter as there were plenty of eating places nearby.

The Hotel room I was given was basic and was located in the basement next to the Lift. The noise from the Lift disturbed me throughout the night, whenever it was used by others. The bedding was basic white sheets with no coloured throw, shown in the listing photos. The small TV was positioned too high on the wall and did not have a tilt mount, so picture was difficult to see unless you stood up in the small room. However you get what you pay for and the Hotel still offers good value for its London location. Reception staff were helpful and always available.

I forgot a folder full of printed train tickets and entrance tickets in our rental car that was returned. The man who was working at the front desk helped me reprint all my lost tickets. He was so kind and so helpful! I can’t remember his name but he was from Argentina. He went above and beyond to help me and I really really appreciate his kindness! He deserves a raise and I highly recommend this hotel. The location is great. It was perfect for us.

The hotel was fine, but the room I was in was overseeing the main road and windows didn’t close completely so it was quite noisy. I only got sleep late at night when traffick was very few but when it picked up again, it became hard to sleep again. Hotel room was clean and bed was comfortable with en-suite shower
