Generator London

LikedHonestly not many good things to be said about this one. The staff were nice. The location was ok. That’s about it.

DislikedThere’s a lot not to like. Firstly, the beds weren’t made. Came in at 3am on the tail end of a long travel and wasn’t happy about having to make the bed. Secondly, none of the charging cables in my bunk or next to my bunk worked, so I couldn’t charge my phone or anything overnight. Elevator also had a few issues and I overheard other guests saying their rooms had bug infestations / they’d been told to stay out of their room for a day which made me a bit paranoid about the health and safety of the place. On top of this, the bathrooms were pretty dirty. Tried two showers and neither of them actually got very warm - definitely not hot. A cold shower after the long travel was not pleasant. Not only that, but there were no bathrooms on my floor, so you had to walk down two flights of stairs to the nearest. Then they closed these bathrooms. 4 flights of stairs to get to the loo. On top of all that? On my second night, the water went out altogether. I understand this is one of the more “affordable” London stays - but I’ve stayed in better for less in the area. If faced with a last minute booking here and somewhere a little more expensive, I’d definitely say it’s not worth it to save a little.

LikedLocation. Very convenient to reach King's Cross Station.

DislikedPersonally, I prefer a thick and insulated duvet. It would be better is there is an option for that.

Likedbed quality

Dislikedbeing woken up in the middle of the night for a water flood, not having water half of the mornings i stayed, no excuse, not even the minimum
