The garden in closed. Breakfast is not available. Description and actual place do not match. Road extremely noisy. Yes, it is a budget hotel, but I have been in better hotels for the same price.

This was my second time staying at Swinton hotel. The location is good, not too far from the King's Cross station and pretty good food options nearby. The staff are always very nice. The windows for the bathroom did not close fully so we had to take shower with the windows half open. Although the buildings are not too close, it's still facing some apartments, we felt a bit insecure. The wifi was weak - maybe because our room was on the 3rd floor since when i stayed last time, the wifi was ok.

Location wasn’t the problem That One night has caused so much discomfort. Bed bugs have made my week hell, bitten beyond belief. 1st time I’ve ever come across that in my life. It totally ruined my overseas trip that followed. Been the worst stay & week

Good bed, good location. Located near very noisy street, no pillow case on my bed, very large and heavy key ring for the doors, no tea in my room, garden wasn't open when we stayed but that may not be the property's fault.

The location of the hotel was perfect, a 10 minute walk from Kings Cross with plenty of places to get fast food, groceries or brunch nearby. A check-in time of 1.30pm is a little unusual and very handy. The reception staff were friendly and happy to store my mobility aid so that I didn't have to keep it in my room. The garden area is a welcome feature and part of the reason I booked this hotel over other similar places. Having a peaceful outside space with lots of options for seating and conversation was lovely. Yes, the room was small, stairs to the entrance, no aircon, this is all pretty standard for a non purpose-built hotel in London. As is traffic noise, to an extent. But the traffic noise in a ground floor, street-facing room was significant. Even with the double windows closed it was maddening at certain times of day and late into the night. The road outside is part of the A501, and it shows. Another thing I'd point out is that there is work going on in part of the building that is closed off, but detritus seems to have spilled out into the garden so it was quite untidy in places. Finally, the bathroom was way past its best and in dire need of updating, so whilst it may have been as clean as possible it still looked grubby due to age, rust stains etc.

I didn’t like anything about this property Not Clean - the bathroom was very small and the shower door had visible dirt and mould in the corners and door. Water in the bathroom sink would not flow and the carpet leading to the room was very dirty. The place is located on a road with frequent traffic. We could hear large trucks passing by and any pedestrians that passed our room. There was no air conditioning or a fan in the room and it was a hot day/night making the room very very hot. Honestly not a great stay.
