Bear in mind the shared toilets are close together stalls with open tops - so you will be very close to whoever is next to you - male or female. Late at night, I had the pleasant experience of having to walk past in a stall with a man who failed to close the door. In the morning, be prepared to have to hold open the door for people walking out the shower in their towel across the corridor to their room. I understand why the facilities are mixed, it would just be nice if at least there were separate ladies loos so you could have a little more privacy. Luggage storage was closed, but was not forewarned and just told at checkout. Staff were otherwise lovely.

I had a blast during my stay, but, truth be told, my sleep wasn't exactly a dream come true. My room on the 4th floor was cozy, but the shared bathroom door had a flair for drama — it slammed shut with a resounding "BAM" every time someone used it, keeping me wide awake most of the night. A soft-closing feature would've been a game-changer. But aside from that little hiccup, everything else was top-notch. The location was spot-on, the staff were absolute gems, breakfast was a feast, the bed felt like a cloud, and cleanliness was flawless.

Close to campuses and Euston and Kings Cross. Facility/Cleanliness wise I prefer Bankside. Breakfast is decent and filling, even with Italian ham.

Excellent location for sightseeing in central London. This option of accommodation delivers great value for the solo traveller. The breakfast is really good, and the buffet style means you get to choose both what you want, and how much you want, to eat.

This was a very cheap option on a Saturday night. You are staying in a University dorm, so don't expect a hotel, but it was absolutely fine if you are looking for something clean, cheap and well located, with a generous free breakfast.

Had to check out a day early for unforeseen reasons but just to make it clear (incase staff reading) nothing wrong with the accomodation. If it's cheaper booking here (of course not possible all year round) than a hotel then it's a good budget option that isn't a hostel or has unexpected fees.

Budget rooms near London's West End
Well located no-frills place to stay. Student accommodation during term time so you can expect a small room but ideal for a non-fussy solo traveller. Shared toilet / shower facilities. Good WiFi. Reasonably quiet given you're in Central London but some noise in this type of accommodation should be expected. Great value for money Near to the West End, Regents Park & British Museum

Need signs to display where showers are. And maybe throw a toilet on the floors instead of just the bottom floor, and if there was more toilets on each floor, signs babes

Great value for money. 5 mins walk from Warren Street tube. 15 min walk to Oxford Street. Breakfast was included - loads of options (cooked, toast, fruit, coffee machine, juices). Rooms were quiet. Shared separate toilet and showers - but plenty and were clean. Would recommend and stay here again

Not so comfy beds.
It was alright for the price. The beds mattress springs dug into our back as well as the mattress sort of dipping in at the middle. There were two male staff members sometimes at the front who were rude at each interaction. The ladies were lovely but the two men were always quite rude to speak to. The windows definitely don't have any form of soundproofing so expect to hear the world outside at night. Breakfast was quite good though, was typical hotel breakfast only difference was it not being self service so had a limit on how much you could grab. Bring your own hair dryer also, not provided.

Great if you get a good price deal
Great location, very well connected on tube lines, no more than 5mins in several directions to a number of stations with direct line from London Euston. Great that they allow baggage storage prior to arrival and on day of departure. Room was pleasant, although it was very very hot and the pull out double bed on the back of a desk was very creaky so had a disturbed sleep. Overall, doing London on a budget I was pleased and i would stay again.

Good value hotel in a easy access location
Very good value property with easy check in. Room was clean. A good breakfast buffet with restocking prompt. The one thing i would change would be to upgrade the curtains to block out the early morning sun. For delicate sleepers, bring ear plugs to blot out the traffic noise - nothing oppressive, just standard central london normal.

Basic accommodation - ok but not the best night
Basic student accommodation but clean. I was there on a hot summer night and needed to open the window to get some fresh air into the room. Noise of people chatting at the bar across the road until 1 am, but not too much traffic. No tea/coffee making facilities in the room. There was a communal kitchen with a kettle and tea/coffee, but no usable milk - milk in the fridge was approaching 4 weeks past its use by date. The room had a wash basin but no ensuite facilites. I had trouble finding the toilets as there were no direction signs but eventually came across them through another door and down a corridor. There appears to be one toilet/shower block per floor - a bit of a trek if you get caught short in the night. Good wifi, and plenty of power sockets in the right places, including near the bed. I had to leave before breakfast was served, so cannot comment on that.
