I'm surprised this qualifies as two stars
Check in was easy. There is no lift, so if you are less able bodied or have heavy luggage, be prepared to carry it up as many as three flights of stairs. Check in concierge was a bit aloof, but overnight concierge was pleasant. For the room, one of the worst beds I've slept in. Sheets clean but dust behind bed head (I was looking for plugs). Two towels provided but no foot towel for the floor, so the bathroom becomes very slippery if you take a shower. Shower head holder on the wall was screwed in too close to the ceiling, so you can't engage the shower head in it to take a shower. Kettle lid was broken, so the kettle wouldn't turn off when boiled. Only one cup was provided despite booking a double room for two.

2/10 Poor

Absolutely disgusting!
Very dirty! Hallway carpet not seen a hover for a long time, same as room. Cobwebs everywhere! No sink plug. Could not fill kettle, no space in dirty sink to fill. Dirty unusable shower and very stained towels. Waited ages for entry to Hotel. Apparently, attendant was in toilet! Very expensive £90 for one night. Only convenience being near to St Pancras Station for very early morning Eurostar train to Brussels Midi, then to Brugge Station. Got to be better hotels, would not recommend this place to anybody.

Chap on reception was great, very friendly and accommodating. Appreciate it wasn't expensive but the comfort level was very poor. Did not have a good night's sleep and the room was tiny

Excellent!!
Good hotel for myself who’s a solo traveler. I felt safe. The room was cleaned to a good standard, towels, shampoo and soap provided, also coffee making facilities in the room. The reception is 24hrs, the front desk people were so very nice and polite. The hotel is very close to Kings Cross. Overall I’m very happy and happily impressed with my stay in the Elmwood hotel. I will choose this hotel again for future stays. Thank you.

Small but adequate room with separate toilet/shower. Three double elec sockets and one single for the Telly.Double bed very comfortable.Never saw a dining room so I don’t know whether breakfast was provided or not.Didn’t like the dark street outside for fear of being mugged but I was ok.I would say good for a single guy but maybe not enough room for a couple.

I was staying for a couple of nights for convenient access to two places of work. Unfortunately what I really needed to do in the few hours I had between morning and evening jobs on the second day was sleep, which was the one thing this hotel was really not geared towards. Rooms are completely un-soundproofed. From banging outside which could have come from roadworks but felt like they were banging on the wall of the building, to footsteps stomping and babies crying upstairs, the room did not provide a peaceful environment to sleep during the day. It was fine at night time. The mattress was old and worn, the shower didn't have a proper mount so had to be hand held or angled upwards. Benefits were the 24/7 reception and very short walk to Kings Cross Station. I wouldn't call the price 'cheap', but it is Central London and the price was cheap compared to everywhere else.
