Older hotel, but in good condition, rooms were good size and clean, staff on the front desk were really friendly. Area around the hotel isn’t the nicest especially on an evening- it’s 8 minutes walk to King’s Cross, which was conceived for our early Eurostar.

Good value for money for this hotel very close to Kings Cross St Pancras. A little noisy because of the traffic unfortunately but difficult to avoid that in this district

The room was super super tiny, no wardrobe or hair dryer. However we kind of figured it out before booking since the size info is listed anyway. Otherwise the room was clean, bed was comfortable and it was very conveniently located. There was coffee/tea available in the room as well as tv. It really was good enough for as for a few nights, we would probably stay here again. Receptionist was nice, easy online check in before arriving saved us some time:) Thank You

Though the double room I had was small but it was very comfortable and well designed. I found the room like being in the warm cuddle of my mum. I slept very well. My only criticism is that there is no room service or restaurant. And it is a walk to find this. But I would stay there again.

Great for one night. We have a small double room which was small and good for 1 night, my 6ft tall boyfriend struggled with the small room but we only booked 2 days before and there were no bigger rooms available.

Amanda

Staff were lovely on check in and check out. I liked the Whatsapp messaging to get the wifi password and iron/ironing board delivered to the room all without having to leave the room and go down to reception but the shower was freezing and when they came to the room to look, the chap clearly had no clue what to do as he just ran it as I had done and said he would get the plumber to attend 9am the next morning which by then I was already at client meetings. They had clearly just ran out of hot water because my neighbours shower was running for a good 40 mins..... I wasn't informed prior to the stay that the kitchen was closed and under construction so paid a fortune for breakfast in a brown paperbag which had I known about, I wouldnt have paid

Just for sleep

It is a very small hotel and ideal if you need a place to rest/leave your things. It is near the train station and seems ideal if you are leaving early for the Eurostar. Good service, and near some good restaurants.

Generally stay was fine. Room was small, walls are very thin so very noisey when other people are walking around outside or in their rooms. For a 1 night stay in central London was fine
