This is an excellent location, outside Euston station. If you have a room at the back, you won't be too interrupted by noise but, regardless, take your ear plugs. This place is not suitable for those with mobility problems as you have to go up a narrow flight of stairs to reach the living area and 2 of the rooms and shower rooms which are next door to each other. The other two bedrooms are up a further flight of stairs.
I have given Suraj the host five stars for communication. I didn't meet him but did meet his lovely mother a few times. When I needed to communicate with him prior to arrival and during the week I was staying, he always contacted me very quickly and responded.
The kitchen was spotless and has all the basic amenities anyone might need.
The biggest downer of this accommodation are the two shower rooms: one shower is not bad but the water went from cold to hot and I couldn't get the temperature down, the other shower on the wall at the head of a bath looks like something out of the 1950s. One toilet bowl is black. The walls and grouting are pretty bad, the pipes are showing, and there is black mould all around the bath sealant. These two rooms are not really fit for purpose.
The rooms have good modern locks on them. My mattress was unacceptably old but Suraj told me he had been to IKEA and it was being replaced. I was working in London for the week and the springs sticking up was not conducive to a good night's sleep. I had to turn the double mattress when I arrived because of the dip on the side I like to sleep on. The sheets were soft and the pillows were comfortable. Not a big fan of the mould on the wall near my bed. Room was very hot on arrival so I opened the window and turned down the radiator. No blankets provided instead of excess heat.
At the end of the day, as the saying goes, 'you gets what you pays for'. I wouldn't have wanted to pay any more but the place scores so highly for location and the hosts that it won me over. Not sure if I could face it again but it served its purpose... just! But I'm not quite as young as I used to be.....
