KX Rooms

Small room, bathroom was a broken shower, toilet by side of shower and no room for a big guy to turn around to the wash basin. Size of a telephone box. Door to bathroom kicked in. No where to hang clothes. Table pockmarked with heat damage? Comforting bang of outside door every time someone cam up or went down stairs. Front door had to be slammed to close as it scratched the floor. Pillows were flat.

i didnt realize that this was a hostel type room.
It was quiet but very very basic, good thing i only needed to sleep after my long flight.
This wasn't the type of 'hotel' room youd wanna spend awake time in.

I literally have no idea how the council hasn’t closed this place down. Lots of mould. Dark steep narrow stair cases where if you was to fall there’s a huge window left open at the bottom of you went through that it’s quite the drop!

Acceptable cleanliness; stair lighting broken on 2nd/3rd floors; noise from park outside. Locstion good for train stations and walking to Finsbury and Islington.

Ideal budget friendly room. I was only staying in it for one night, was very practical for what i needed it for. Moderately comfortable bed and cozy. Fan and tv in the room was a nice touch.

Very dirty and disgusting place I ever seen . I didn’t even stay for an hour .

London rooms located walking distance to main train station and restaurants with friendly service. No frills.

Friendly service. No frills. Simply rooms convenient and safe.

Too much dusty, shower not working.

The reception staff for this property are amazing people but the the hygiene standards for KX rooms is extremely shocking! When I arrived to apparently a clean room I found chewing gum stuck on the wall, dust & dirt everywhere including the fan, tv, mirrors and even the sink. I know it’s a budget hotel but I’ve stayed in hostels that are cleaner than this place. After checking out the room I had to ask for cleaning materials just to clean my room before I stayed there.
Now onto the communal shower. The shower head didn’t work while the flooring is lifting up and you feel like you’re going to fall through to the next floor down.

All in all this property is now worth staying in just to save a few pounds. I can’t stress this enough to stay away and book somewhere that doesn’t have piss stains on the mattress topper!

It was the worst place I’ve ever stayed, and I have backpacked in New Delhi. Didn’t get a code despite having checked in online twice because my card hadn’t gone through. Why didn’t they ring??? Fire exit blocked. Fire door sign upside down behind the junk on the floor. Toilet filthy, no toilet paper. Shower ghastly, broken, didn’t drain, drain cover missing, standing water and a vile smell. No room to undress unless you stand in the shower. Fire safety notices in rooms not filled in. Window filthy and broken, repaired with tacky back. No soap or plug and another foul smell when the tap was run. Scaffolding outside so anyone could get in. All paint chipped and peeling. Walls and floor filthy. No mattress protector. Safe not fixed to wall. One cup which was cracked and dirty. Noisy floor and door. Sensor for lights didn’t work until second floor had to use my phone on the stairs. Finally -that awful crack den painting!!!! Chipped and foul. See pics I posted, not the hotel ones, don’t know where they took those.

For this price (BP 100 per person) a bed of only 1,2 meters for 2 persons, a bathroom, smaller than in a camper, you couldn't close the door using the toilet. The shower & toilet together was max 1,5 meters wide. It was impossible using the shower without making everything wet.
I would not recommend this hotel. Pictures at the side are not according reality!

Stopped here a few days ago, how this place is still open is beyond me.
From going down the tight stair case to ourRoom /Dungeon we couldn’t believe the state of the place.
The smell hits you going down the stair case and know different when entering our room 60.
The room was smelly and when entering the bathroom and toilet your greeted by the smell of mould and then looking at the ceiling there was mould and dirt all over the ceiling.
The toilet door and the bathroom door would not shut completely and you couldn’t sit on the toilet without banging your head on the door
The TV remote wouldn’t work, there was no door closer on the entrance fire door and the stair case fire door the place can’t operate without these items and needs closing down until rectified, my wife dropped her make up and it rolled under the small sette so we had to pull this out and once we’d done that we could see a empty vape and a pile of dust I don’t think this had been cleaned for months. At night we slept in our clothes we didn’t want to put the on the furniture or floor and to make matters worse this was advertised as a superior room. Hope you don’t ever visit anywhere as bad as this place

At 8pm arrival, reception was closed and the doors were locked and there were no responses to the phone numbers posted when we called. I found an email in my spam they had sent (from a different email) hours earlier with a code to enter. No staff to be found. The shower wouldn't drain, so it was unusable. There were bugs on the beds, in the towels and on the wall. We were too exhausted to find a new place, so we slept on top of the beds in our clothes and left early. Stellar location, and creative paint jobs, but too much of a hassle to gain entry.

The shower on my floor was out of order (maybe fixing it from when I stayed there a couple of months), but didn't matter as no towel was provided. Comfortable bed, but not being able to shower wasn't a great start to the day.

Unsafe, unclean, uncontactable

This is the only time I have ever refused to stay in a hotel.

Putrid smell
Dark corridors
Same code for the front door and the bedroom
Dirty beyond belief
Felt like walking into a crack den
This is not a safe place and I would never step foot in it again
And there was no one to contact!

Dès mon arrivée, les problèmes ont commencé. L’adresse communiquée ne dispose pas de réception : je me suis retrouvé·e à la porte. La réception se trouve en réalité dans un autre hôtel, et le personnel n’est pas toujours présent, donc prévoyez de pouvoir appeler un numéro de portable britannique.

On m’a ensuite attribué une chambre avec des draps sales. Lorsque je l’ai signalé, on m’a assuré qu’ils étaient propres, alors qu’il y avait visiblement des taches suspectes. On m’a finalement donné des draps propres, que j’ai dû changer moi-même, avec la promesse d’un nettoyage en profondeur le lendemain matin. Mais personne n’est venu : la chambre n’a pas été nettoyée, même le lit n’a pas été refait. Le customers service est au plus bas.

La salle de bain est minuscule, les toilettes sont quasiment dans la douche.

Ma pire expérience, et pourtant j’ai beaucoup voyager.

Self check in worked out well. Rooms are comfortable and clean. Shared shower could do with a new hose and floor needs attention. Nearly knocked myself out on low door frame when the motion sensors didn't turn hallway lights on. But otherwise good value for the stay.

.

A very good value room in a great location for access to public transport. The room is clean amd comfortable, which was perfect for our needs.
