Local shops incl Sainsbury’s. Walked to Emirates Stadium (28 minutes). Quiet, basic but fair value. Bought a lovely breakfast on my walk back to Angel tube station (20 minute walk)

Budget hotel, clean and comfortable
A clean, friendly hotel and great value for money especially in London. There's a bus stop outside and you're about a 15 mins walk from the tube. Don't expect a top notch hotel but the rooms are clean, the beds comfy and the staff are friendly.

Great stay.
Excellent service and a great welcoming. The reception team are always smiling and are happy to help.
The room is not too bad. The room and bathroom were nice and clean, and the bed was comfortable.
The only issue is that the walls look worn out, but that wasn't a big problem for us.
Overall, great stay!

Staff helpful and pleasant. Room was clean but very dated and tired looking. I'm suspecting it is being updated as linen and towels were all very new looking as was kettle and cups. We had everything we needed for 1 night stay.

Lovely visit
Islington Inn is a comfortable place to be at. Its clean (as clean as it gets in an old buildning of London!), there is always staff there, they are helpful and kind, its calm, its a good location, the bathroom is clean, the bed is clean. Sure the carpet in the hallway is a bit dirty (answering other peoples comments) but its just stained. Every morning they cleaned.

Like many London hotels, the hotel itself was old and rooms were small, with some features outdated. Location, service and cleanliness were great.

Very convenient walking distance to the Islington Business Centre. Though the lobby is very good sized with chairs, would be nice if a TV and coffee maker would be placed

Value for money!
Looks really run down when you get there and leading to the rooms, but if you're looking for a nice, clean bed and a good bathroom and not much more, this was actually a great, positive surprise.

It’s a good place to stop if your in London for work, it’s a good price and a comfy bed! It’s probably not the best quality for a full on holiday but great when needing to stay in Islington for a few days for work or to see family and freinds!
It was small and basic but comfortable and the staff are lovely. The only issue I had was the shower took a while for the water heating to work.

This is a good price for a very well situated accomodation. Very small room, but has all you need. Good shower. Very thin walls, could hear person next door on his phone, and the person he was speaking to, room was very hot. Cleaner was bashing about with a hoover at 8.45 am outside in corridor and in room next door. Seemed a bit unnecessary given check out at 11 and check in at 12. Would stay again as location good for me. Does the job. Do t expect luxury, but it doesn’t offer it.

I booked for one night, I rang to let them know what time I'd be arriving to check it was ok. I was told the desk was manned 247. When I arrived no one was there and no one was answering the phone either. It was late, I was exhausted and all I needed was somewhere safe to rest. I was stood outside for 20ish mins, football fans were waiting to get in too. I was the only woman, on my own, on the street not knowing. There was no sign with information as to where he had gone. (He had gone to the shops).
The room was fine enough.
