It was modest, but in fact ideal for a solo traveler and probably good for a small group. Many little details made it much better than the simple space would require. A 30 min walk from town, but it’s mostly level and there is a bus

Let's start with the positives. Great location, very welcoming and accommodating staff. Now for the middle. Some of our room lighting didn't work properly. No air con, granted not a problem generally in the UK but on this visit a basic desk fan was welcome. Functional but slightly battered, dent in the bathroom door and some minor cosmetic flaws.
Now for the poor. Very small room and bathroom, basic Yale key, no accessibility of you are even mildly disabled and kind of noisy as the rooms seem crammed in to this lovely building. Views aren't really a thing with this hotel.
If you read this far it might seem negative, however, it's a great jumping off point and very central for great connections. Gives hostel vibes but can't fault the staff.

Small room (as expected). Reminder that it's a walk-up -- no lift and narrow stairway made me appreciate packing a small suitcase. Front desk staff responded very quickly to e-mail when I told them I'd missed a connection and would be 4 hours later than expected. He also watched bags for a couple hours after my checkout time so it was easier to do more exploring. Desk staffed 24/7.

Although this place is located very conveniently near to Kings Cross/St. Pancras stations, it felt sketchy at night. On the map, I could see a little square/park next to the hotel, which is part of what prompted me to make the reservation. But it's got homeless (or maybe druggies) that made me uncomfortable walking by ... not at all a nice little park! The room itself was very small, barely enough room to walk on the far side of the bed. It was difficult to deal with two suitcases in the room, and we only had roll-aboard size luggage, not full-sized bags. The bathroom was likewise very small. Staff was not helpful. There were two bottles of water (warm) in the room the first day. When we asked for more (in the brutal travel advisory heatwave), we were told we'd be charge for water. No way to get ice. No mini fridge. We were given a small fan but the room was just cruelly hot ... no-way-to-sleep-at-night hot.

The hotel is a great cheap and affordable option when staying in London, despite it being a budget hotel the bathroom wasn’t overly clean with dusty floors and ledges. Amenities are soap, shower gel and coffee making facilities only. Room was quite bare and not very cosy. Having said this, the bed was very comfy and we slept really well! The hotel is quite and on a quite road too. We had an issue whereby we returned to our room late afternoon and the cleaner had been in to replace our towels and had not locked or closed our door. This was really disappointing and not safe given there are other rooms on our floor and the door was visibly open so could easily have had things taken. We did report this to reception staff. Otherwise an okay stay, for a budget hotel.

I was able to check in an hour early and friendly staff carried my bag down multiple flights of stairs to the bottom floor as there is no lift. The room was very run down and worn but felt safe for very short stay. Unfortunately, when I returned from my evening out I found the room was overrun with about 20 plus ants coming out of the shower drain and the floor boards. I was disgusted and let the staff at the front desk know. He came to check the room and moved me to the only other room he had available as it was close to midnight.

The second room was on the ground floor but was another disappointment. The room was even more rundown but I stayed because I was getting an early train anyway. The bedding was dirty and had stains. I ended up sleeping in the cleaner of the two single beds. The shower was tiny and the door kept falling off it's runners. I had to lift it back in place to get out. I didn't see any more insects but felt uncomfortable with my stay and struggled to sleep due to how dirty the room was. I also ended up spraying down my bag with bug spray when I left as I didn't want to bring any friends with me. The window also didn't close and it was noisy all night.

I would not stay here again but the staff did seem to be doing their best to be friendly and helpful. The area is safe with lots of shops and restaurants nearby.

I was in a hurry in the morning or I would have asked for a full refund.

So the Argle square area is perfect for travel and accessing London 7 min walk to the train and underground at Kingscross but away from the main rds and in a leafy green street with a park , however be prepared for the shish pipe smoking drug takers happily relaxing in said park but they kept themselves to themselves, did have 1 concern even though on 1st floor bedroom window could easily be accessed and didn't close and lock properly room 107, just a chain across for security , felt a little unsecure. Rooms are small but everything you could need for an overnight stay for a low price for central london , ask for hairdryer at reception if needed not in room but available. Unsure if an Iron available on same terms as didn't need one all in all good stay for a good price and luggage stored free pre and post check in/ out was a bonus too 😀
