We are GuestReady, a property manager, and we want to ensure your stay will be as smooth and comfortable as possible. We are available 24/7 should you need any assistance during your stay. Kindly note that this is a personal home so please take good care of it as if it was your own.

Caledonian Road is a very old street. The house that you are in was built circa 1890 (same period as the Tower Bridge). The road is between the stylish, new Kings Cross area with its brand new Coal Drops Yard, hip restaurants, Arts and Fashion school, and the canal (10 mins walk), and the beautiful Upper Street (Angel) with its unique restaurants, pubs, small shops, and urban lifestyle (12 min walk). The “Cally” remains to be a working-class street with its Pawn shops, Graffiti, and cheap restaurants, even though merely a stone throw away from London’s greatest neighbourhoods.

Kings Cross and Angel:

Walk only 10mins to Kings Cross' Granary Square and 15 minutes to Kings Cross & St. Pancras stations (with Piccadilly, Northern, Hammersmith/City, Circle, and Victoria underground lines, Eurostar to Paris, and other rail services) and 15 minutes to Angel tube station. Double-deck buses 17, 91(N), 259, and 274 are about 100m from the flat and will get you into Camden, the British Museum, etc.

To Airports:
- Gatwick: 48mins from Kings Cross with Thameslink train (ca 12 GBP)
- Stansted: 70mins with Victoria line to Tottenham Court Road and then Stansted Express (book way in advance to get cheap tickets), or Easybus from Old Street,
- Heathrow: 54 minutes with Heathrow Express from Paddington or 80mins with Piccadilly line from Kings Cross (5 GBP)

This property is a self-check-in property, and you will be requested to verify your identity before being able to check into the flat. You can check in any time of the day as long as you respect our standard check-in time (3 PM).

We also charge £50 for each set of lost keys (security keys may cost more). For security purposes, replacing the locks may incur an additional cost. So, please keep your keys safe.

There is a zero-tolerance policy for smoking on the property. If our team discovers evidence that this rule has been breached (e.g., smoke smell, ashes, butts, etc.), we fully reserve the right to charge a minimum of £300 for the smoking fee.

We do not allow parties, large gatherings, loud noises, or outside guests. Should we receive sufficient evidence of such activity, we reserve the right to cancel your stay (without a refund) and may involve a security team to evict you. Any associated cost will be charged to you via your security deposit. Local authorities may also be present (if required).

Well located. It’s a good thing that the bedroom is on the back and not on the street because of the noise. The flat is clean and well equipped. Unfortunately, we were very disappointed by the bad bedding.

Everything you need and clean. Kitchen appliances are higher end and W/D works great. Nice lighting and design touches. Lovely natural light during the day. Location is walkable from St. Pancras Kings Cross. A bit loud if windows are opened but bedroom is in the back and very quiet.

This was a last minute booking from New Year's Eve for three nights. I loved the apartment but a few hours in, disaster struck when the washing machine overflowed into the kitchen sink which overflowed through the kitchen cabinets, over the floor, under the island and into the living area. Although I was quick to start the clean up, I couldn't stop the water pouring out so it was a huge effort and not how I'd intended spending my NY's Eve evening. I contacted the host who didn't seem to appreciate what I was dealing with, took 24 hours to get a cleaner to the property and two days to get a plumber to fix the blocked drain. Meanwhile, I couldn't use the dishwasher, washing machine or kitchen sink. I was first offered GBP12.22 in compensation by Guest Ready - having had to request it - which was later increased to GBP55. An absolute insult for all of the work I did potentially saving that property and the one below from thousands of pounds of damage. The ongoing inconvenience factor was significant, including the time it took both at the apartment and following my departure. Vrbo came through with another CAD70 which was appreciated but as a host myself, I'd have offered at least one free night including the cost of taxes, etc. Some hosts just don't seem to care about their guests or their reputation. I therefore cannot recommend Guest Ready as a host. Avoid at all costs.

Highly recommended for London visits

This flat was excellent. Very high specification fittings, bright interior, modern and comfortable. The layout was thoughtful and spacious, with great views. Within just a fifteen minute walk of Kings Cross Station it was perfect for getting into the main hub of London quickly. The flat had all the electronic devices expected, microwave, dishwasher, computer, USB sockets and WIFI etc to enable you to continue to work at the apartment if you needed too. The flat was also very homely with blankets, books, ground coffee facility, lots of lamps and comfortable chairs and fluffy towels. The bedroom had sound proofed walls and sliding doors and the bed, although a bit soft for me, was comfortable. The handover of keys was prompt and just an email or call to organize. I will definitely be booking this flat in the future for my London visits.
