    Great hotel for the price, couldn't fault it. I wanted something close to St Pancras and Kingscross railway stations. This hotel was ideal.

    The stairs were steep and we had to carry our own luggage up two flights. The room was a bit tight but we managed.

    The room was nice and the tea and coffee maker was a plus. We asked for extra pillows and got them quickly.

    Staff was super friendly and helpful. You can always leave your luggage in the lobby if you get there early or have checked out, but not left London yet. It's across the street and a block down from King's Cross and St Pancras rail stations.

    Good location, works for a short budget stay

    The air circulation didn't really exist in the room. We could open the window and use the small ventialtor but still it was very stuffy and without an integrated ventilation in the room the air gets really bad at night when two people are sleeping in such a small room even with an open widnow. Also you could hear everything happening in the corridor and sometimes it felt like there is someone entering your room cause the sound isolation is pretty bad.

    The location is very good, lots of public transport options and also such locations as SOHO are reachable by foot within a 30min stroll. The staff was friendly and the check in process was smooth.

    The Bathroom was not very inviting. It was not very clean. I felt uncomfortable standing in it without shoes.

    The location is Great! So convenient, I recommend this trip for a quick stay over 1 or 2 nights. They let me keep my bags at reception because I was arriving early before check out and leaving late after check out. Staff were friendly too.

    If you are super rich, I suppose you stay somewhere with more space.

    Although it is very tight for space, and if roominess is crucial to you, of if you have a longer stay, it might not be ideal. But we stayed two nights as a couple, arrived at Kings Cross and after a day in London depart from St Prancras the next morning, the cramped quarters were not an issue. After a week traveling Britain and sleeping on saggy beds, this room had a bed that supported my back, so I woke up refreshed. The bathroom and shower were clean and entirely functional. The establishment is both clean and respectable. The locking system feels secure. There was a fan in the room and the window could be cracked open enough to have some ventilation. The neighbourhood - once you are away from the hustle and bustle only a few blocks away - is not only quiet and safe, but feels like a real neighbourhood, with local pubs and cafes with bustling sidewalk terraces. I feel like I lucked out on the location for the price! Highly recommended if you just need a comfortable place to rest, visit the city, and have extremely close access to train transport. Tube stations, obviously, are just around the corner. There was also a kettle and real coffee cups and real glasses for wine or water.

    It's not a dislike, but appreciate it is a basic hotel with similarly basic facilities.

    Location is fantastic - 5 mins walk from KingsX / St Pancras station / 10 mins from Euston. The room was basic but clean with a small washing basin in the corner. The shared shower and toilet on the same floor were close by and spotless. I took a couple of work video calls over the free wifi, and it worked perfectly. The staff were pleasant and helpful.
