The location was most convenient for me. It was easy to get to. The room was clean and tidy. The only problems were that there was no way of turning off the light from the bed. And that there was no possibility of opening the window wide enough to cope with the heat; I’m sure the H&S policies wouldn’t let you alter that, which is a bit frustrating. Other than those, it was great. The staff were superb.

The room was clean, tidy and shower & toilet were conveniently located. Unfortunately the fob on my keyring did not work so I relied on passers by to let me out. The staff were very helpful in shoeing me where to go. I was surprised that the rooms in the shared flat were not let as single sex but nothing untoward took place. I would recommend the facility however with that caveat.

Very pleased with the stay. The room was clean and tidy and the staff were welcoming. I particularly liked the fact that the room was in a block of 4 bedrooms only and with a nice well equipped communal kitchen and nearby shower and toilet. The building is ideally placed for Euston Station trains and underground.

The reception and security staff were always so approachable and receptive to any questions or concerns I had, and the cleaning staff were also so friendly!

Very warm with restricted window opening and no air con or fan. Very few pots and pans in kitchen, no plates or bowls. But clean and quiet room and flat.
