Pros:

Conveniently located near public transit and some sites of interest, the hotel itself is somewhat difficult to locate in the warren of street near the station. The rooms, though not particularly small, were not well laid out or furnished; for example, there was no place to put open luggage, no towel racks, etc. Breakfast options were limited but adequate. Free WiFi Internet access was only available in one 30-minute block once every 24 hours (which is not the same as once per calendar day, as this restriction meant that if, for example, on the first day one accessed the WiFi Internet at 7:00 PM, one would only be able to access that free WiFi Internet after 7:00 PM the second day, and so on.

Pros:

It could do with a lick of paint in the corridors but apart from that clean & tidy. Would definitely stay again & recommend to friends & family. Perfect walking distance from train stations.

Pros:

There just seemed to be queues in this hotel all the time, to check in, for breakfast. Which was not the most efficient service, although the food itself was pretty good.
Biggest bug bare, was my hubbys Guinness was in a Budweiser glass…
Very noisy during the night outside, could do with better soundproofing windows

Pros:

I thought the hotel was good value and conveniently situated for Kings Cross. Staff were helpful. The area nearby is a little run down but did not feel unsafe. A shame there is no free WIFI though having breakfast is a bonus

Good location but smallish rooms
Pros:

Location was great - 10 minute walk from kings cross underground. Breakfast buffet was good too. Two major negatives - rooms are tiny. Hard to navigate room with luggage. Shower also tiny.

Pros:

This was my first time at a Travelodge and I'd gladly return. The staff was friendly, the room was clean and more spacious than I'd expected and the bed was very comfortable. My only minor complaint was that the water was scalding hot coming out of the bathroom tap at the sink. The room has a kettle, which was a nice touch. Overall it was a convenient place to stay and as an older solo traveler, it met all of my needs nicely.

Pros:

The hotel room was dirty, the table had stains left on it as well as hair in a few places. The remote control was filthy , it was horrible to touch, the kettle was dusty and dirty.
The room was very hot and stuffy, we asked for fans and none were given to us although they said they would , no cold water available for drinking , the smell coming through from the window which was opened was not pleasant either.
We could not stay there so we left. We noticed other people leaving for similar problems.
Although we did not use the room at all and left after we tried to negotiate for fans they have refused to refund us the money paid.

Absolutely terrible experience, terrible place, unhelpful staff. Would not recommend this place at all.

Outstanding value!
Pros:

Admittedly Wi-Fi quality or a luxurious stay were not amongst my priorities when choosing this hotel but to crash at a safe, clean and lower cost place in central London were. To these priorities the place delivers an outstanding value, more so than any other place I have ever stayed to in the area. Will definitely return!

Pros:

Quite simple/mediocre in every respect. And quite poor in every regard for the cost (ie poor value for money). Met minimum standards but at a low level. Would not look to return.
