This property is a short walk from King’s Cross station . It has a 24 hr reception with comfy sofas. The rooms are clean but small and I found the mattress very hard. There is a lift so it is an accessible property. They offer luggage storage . Overall it is an acceptable hotel for a 1-2 night stay in London.

Good near railway station

I stay here very often so all I can say is that the rooms are nice enough and the beds are comfortable and it's clean and there is a lift to go to different floors which is missing on a lot of places

A good option for low cost travel, somewhere to sleep and amenities were clean - the room was acceptable for this purpose. However, in need of new carpets, wall paint and general fixing up - also pretty loud as the walls and floors are thin
