Location can't be beat!
Liked: London is a VERY expensive place to stay. A nice hotel room was beyond my means, so I had to settle for something less. The location of the Apollo can't be beat; two blocks and a very busy street and you're at both King's Cross and St. Pancras train stations, and Euston Station is only a few minutes, on foot, away. But the facility, while clean, is decidedly downscale. Depending on where they put you, and on this trip I was in two different rooms, I'd rate the hotel as either a one-star or barely two-star. My first two visits to the hotel I was in a ground-floor room with toilet & shower facilities "down the hall." On my third visit to the hotel I was in an en-suite room on the second floor (would be the third floor in the U.S.), and while toilet / shower facilities were handier, the room was not much bigger than the double bed.I don't want to knock this place too much; I was perfectly happy to be so close to the train and underground stations and the hotel is in a nice, quiet neighborhood. And the receptionist was super nice. But coming from America where everything is super-sized, not just the hamburgers, don't expect nice rooms at budget prices, because it ain't gonna happen.
Disliked: Being not terribly steady on my feet, I would have either appreciated non-carpeted stairs or carpeted stairs that were better maintained. And I wasn't at all sure that the water from the taps was potable.

Disappointing
Liked: LocationOn ground floor - as struggle with stairs and bag.
Disliked: Noise of other guests coming and going all hours into early morning. The front door always slamming closed.A bit grimy here and there - chair and old battered furniture. Didn't smell too fresh, but bed was comfortable and bedding clean.London hotels have become incredibly expensive, especially when earning NZ$. I got what I paid for - a cheap(er) hotel.
