No fuss decent budget stay in super central location
Pros:

Another stay at Central Station and it's pretty much the same as before. It's not a fancy and super convenient hotel - it's a simple room to stay for the night (or two) near King's Cross. If you're looking for a decent and safe place which won't ruin you - this is the spot. Staff is nice and friendly, the building definitely has a vibe and it's a quiet street despite the super central location.

Cons:

Beds could do with new mattresses and it's always nicer if the bed linen is white in hospitality. That said, I still had a very decent sleep.

It was in budget but by no means atall enjoyable. I would not stay again
Pros:

The staff were lovely.
And the place was gritty and engaging. It was nice to stay somewhere clearly in touch with the local community.
The beds were clean and well made and no bed bugs.

Cons:

Everything felt very tired.
No secondry glazing.
Extractor fan noise everywhere.
I had to put a towel on the floor to walk to the bathroom.
Damp in the cupboards
I felt un comfortable eating in the pub.
