It was close to central London, price was good and ideal for an over night stay.
Super friendly check in and desk staff, comfy bed and really good shower :)

Rooms are small and bathrooms are smaller but if you just need somewhere to put your head down for the night, this will do quite nicely. I used it twice this summer when going to concerts and it did the job perfectly.
Friendly staff, clean environment, 24hr reception. Basic rooms. Wifi, t.v. tea & coffee. Etc. Very good location.
Room only no ither facilities at this hotel. Daily house keeping. Fresh towels and bedding.
Absolutely stank of smoke and bad plumbing. We went to politely ask to change rooms and let them know about the smoke and he seemed annoyed and told us the smell was coming from the street. This wasn’t true as the street was empty and there were cigarette butts on the window sill. We weren’t able to change rooms. Mentioned it again in the morning to a different man at the desk and he just glared at us, no apology or offer of a refund / partial refund. The staff were really rude right from the start, apart from the cleaner who we passed in the hall - she was very smiley and friendly. We then tried to get a refund through Expedia but they couldn’t get through to the hotel to authorise it. I think this is the first time I have ever left a bad review.
The room was absolutely not as advertised on Hotels.com, much smaller, much less well appointed. Photos were lies. No sockets near the bed, which was quite an achievement in such a miniscule space. Old tired decor, old tired mattress. Bathroom main light didn't work, felt bad having to wake the night staff to get buzzed in as there is no unaided access even with a key.
Tiny room, old paint, old mattress, guilt, everything smelling of strange cleaning products: much more like visiting grandparents than staying in a hotel that cost money.

Good room
Clean room and quiet area. Everythinh worked and we were happy there
Looks really run down when you get there and leading to the rooms, but if you're looking for a nice, clean bed and a good bathroom and not much more, this was actually a great, positive surprise.

It was great for getting into the capital. The only thing we didn't like was that the room was like a shoe box. We stayed this week so it was absolutely boiling hot in the room as it was so small
Very convenient walking distance to the Islington Business Centre. Though the lobby is very good sized with chairs, would be nice if a TV and coffee maker would be placed
