Zu heiß im Sommer, unsaubere Zimmer und Bad. Für kurztripp:Nahe an Camden und den Londoner Stadium und gute Öffi Erreich
Pros:

Der Mitarbeiter am Empfang war sehr nett, die Lage sehr gut, nur wenige Meter zur U-Bahn und zum Bus.

Cons:

Das Gemeinschaftsbad war schmutzig und wurde auch an beiden Tagen nicht gereinigt. Ebenso wurde das Zimmer nicht gereinigt und es gab keine frischen Hand und Badetücher. Es war extrem heiß im Zimmer, es gab keine Klimaanlage. Nur ein kleiner Ventilator hing an der wand.

Bargain, clean and comfortable
Pros:

Absolute bargain for London a little bit out of the way but you can be in central London within half an hour or so. Super clean with a friendly staff, definitely great place to stop over!
