Not what we were expecting - old and dated property with no lifts. Lots of steep stairs. Carpets in central areas have seen better days. The bathroom was old and dated, toiletries not restocked during our 4 night stay. The bed was quite hard & had a large external wooden frame which was a magnet for shins - ouch. No duvets on the bed - old school woolen blankets - not the most sanitary option. The kitchenette was behind doors and kind of pokey to access.The small tv was way up high on top of the kitchen so difficult to watch. When we arrived to check in we’re told the room wouldn’t be ready for 20 mins which was fine - we left our luggage and walked to get lunch. When we arrived back after nearly an hour it still wasn’t - we’re told twice just give me 30 seconds but were kept waiting in the freezing lobby area for close to an hour. The good thing was its locations to lots of dining options and a short walk to Kings Cross station. Would not stay here again though.

Quaint cosy hotel in accessible location
I had a lovely stay at Hotel Medusa❤️ the hitel is cosy ahd quaint. It has a bright courtyard too. my room had a balcony which was perfect for my morning coffee time. The location is in a relatively quiet area ( there is a bar opposite but the noise is manageable. My room faced it. It quietens down by 10 pm) yet close to Kings’ Cross station - about 3-4 min walk. Lots of cafes around. Coles is 3 min walk. Botanical Gatdens is a 20 min walk through scenic roads. It was perfect for my 3 night stay. Jacqui us very helpful and supportive too🙏

A very disappointing experience service wise. I left a pair of shoes in the room. I called and emailed and texted the next day to ask for them to retrieve them. Not until a day later did I get a response to say they could t see them but would check with housekeeping. It took them a daily call to respond to me by email three days later to check with housekeeping and to say they couldn’t find them and they may have been thrown away. Very, very upsetting - and disappointing.
