Great location, with many parks and restaurants nearby; walking distance to Covent Garden and other good areas, as well as the Underground. Staff were courteous, and rooms were pleasant. We enjoyed our stay!

Calm little place, centrally-located

Stayed in this b&b 1 night and booked for the following! The room is ensuite, toilet newly refurbished very nice. Basic small room but super clean, welcoming with teas soaps and extra towels, hair dryer which I didn t expect at that price !! Receptionists very nice and helpful. A pleasant unexpected surprise.. not to mention the position :)

Home feeling in the heart of city!

Superb location. Parking is a minute away in Bloomsbury Square NCP. It is underground and very secure. Cost is £32 per day but not needed on a Sunday.

We had a family room with shower/WC. Very clean, comfy beds, tea and coffee making facilities. welcome from reception was excellent. This hotel is well worth the value

Great value for money

A nice hotel in a great location. We had a nice room only on the very top floor overlooking the Russel Square gardens. 

Perfect for me and my friend as we needed a place to stay for one night after hitting soho. 

Only downside is the fact we had to share a bathroom & toilet facilities. 

Lovely place for a night

Visited for 1 night, and was mildly impressed. We were looking for a cheap stay while on a trip to the theatre and a little tourism. The Ruskin surpassed our expectatiins.
Staff were very friendly and helpful, and room was clean and comfortable (had a great nights sleep), with a good shower. Only thing missing was a tv but as had free WiFi, it wasn't an issue. 
Breakfast was good and we were greeted and looked after very nicely, thank you.
We were also able to leave bag after checking out, for free I might add, all day while we visited some attractions etc.

Nice, Clean, friendly and helpful staff

In the first place the location is just epic. In the centre of London, it is just amazing. Everything is just a walk away, literally everything London.
With that in mind the price is actually good. 
The bathroom is a shared facility. Keep that in mind. You may be rushing to use it, or encounter a line.
The beds are old, but comfortable enough. Bedding is clean and has no smell not stains.
The service desk is friendly enough, but with the typical in-your-face brash British style. There is no 24 hour desk. They will, however, keep your luggage if you arrive early. 
Breakfast, which is extra, is a nice traditional English and serving staff is friendly and efficient.
All in all not for a long-term or even whole vacation stay, but nice for one or two nights at most.

Epic location, OK stay

Set your expectation and you won't be disappointed. This isn't your "traditional" hotel where you will want to relax in your room or sit in the bar. It's cheap. More of a B&B than a hotel. And it's tired - the decor and furniture need an update. There was no lift and so heavy bags had to be carried up the stairs. That said, it's a reasonable B&B. Rooms are clean and fairly spacious. We loved our room as it was away from the road and cool because it didn't have the full sun from the day. Breakfast finished at 09:30 which was far too early for us! Staff were friendly and helpful.

Cheap and reasonable hotel

I’ll not be “ruskin” back again, the facilities are outdated, the rooms are bare and offer no comfort, the lift is for luggage only as it breaks down regularly so pray you’re not put on the third floor lol, breakfast is lacklustre for the amount you pay per person, very outdated for the modernity of London. However, the staff are helpful and there is wi-fi.

Outdated

I am so disappointed with this B&B. On top of being super outdated, it doesn't even have what it is essential facilities for a modern city as London! I would not recommend staying here. The only good thing is the location and the staff is nice.

No TV, no Wi-FI, no duvet, just 1 towel each

Tiny room. Bathroom and toilet down the hall and no working lift.
Staff very helpful.
Needs a refurb badly.
Really good location at the side of the British Museum.
Breakfast was fine.
Possible to leave your bag with them to collect later in the day.
