The Apollo Hotel

Room was tiny.
Had not bothered to finish painting the walls. Dated interior and furnishings.
Food/dining area was nothing to cheer about.
Staff were nice. Everything was clean. Communal shower and bathroom were fine.
Cheaper than most and served our purposes for one night.
Location 1 block from King's Cross tube was ideal (not too close to station- so a bit quieter than some other hotels on that street).
We chose King's Cross for easy access to Thames Link train to Luton Airport.
Glad we stayed in London and not Luton.
Thames Link was easy 35 minute train ride from King's Cross. Plenty of time to get to our 11:20AM flight.
Probably would not stay there again, as I figure there are other places just as average.

Unique Quality: None really.

Directions: King's Cross tube station. 1.5 blocks away.
