I had a wonderful stay at Christina's Gold Room! I arrived much later than expected but Christina but the cohosts were so flexible and still welcomed me when I arrived. They are well-located on Caledonian Road where you can visit the surrounding shops or take a 10 minute walk to King's Cross St. Pancras for further traveling.
The Gold Room is small as it is specified in the description. If you are a person like me who does not mind a tight fit, this room may be perfect for its cheap rent. I am 6' 2" and was able to operate just fine. To give you a reference of the width of the room, I was not able to stretch out my arms and my suitcase had just enough room to open completely. But this was fine by me and provided a feeling of security and coziness. It has its own heater and fan so you can control temperature. It also has a TV for relaxing and a mini desk for work. Across from the room is the laundry room where the cleaning lady often begins laundry around noon. This was never a disturbance for me during my stay.
The hosts were often times in the main room and were so nice to talk to. I would come back from a day in London and often times bump into either Leslie or Christina on my way to the Gold Room and would talk about my day. They are so kind and easy to talk to. They are the type of hosts you can really count on to help make your stay special and worth while.
The shared bathroom was of no issue to me. One morning I had to wait for someone to get out of the shower but I expected that. It wasn't long until I could use it myself and was of no trouble. Overall, this was a great place to stay and as long as you don't mind tight living spaces, the Gold Room is a perfectly comfortable room to stay in.
