Rooms are tiny, no airflow, smells of sewage and damp, no lifts so difficult with luggage. The only thing going for this property is it's close to Kings Cross station.
Easy to get to from the tube station and close to lots of shops. The staff were really nice and helpful the whole time. Room was kinda small but good for one night, I would defo recommend x

Great location to Kings Cross. Small and basic room but sufficient for a simple overnight stay.
Friendly staff on check in great location. Perfect for early Eurostar at St Pancras the next morning

A couple of days to start the holiday
The location was awesome as I was going to the British Museum and then taking the Eurostar at St Pancras. The room was small but expected the bathroom was good with good water pressure. The staff were excellent and friendly. I recommend it.
the hotel is average as a bedsit, budget hotel, very basic accomadation, no fan or A/C.
No water pressure so showering was not an option, this was on the 3rd floor.
Room was tiny should never be a double, put case on shelf high up and it ended up covered in dust. Staff helpful and polite. Property in need of upgrade as looks tired. Have stayed in similar priced properties locally which were far better.

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was clean. The receptionist took our bags up to our room on the top floor. It was easy access from St Pancras and Kings Cross.
The room and en suite were small with a broken shower screen.
Good for an overnight, but not great for a longer period. I should add that we do normally try to book "Very Good" or "Excellent" properties, but this suited our travel arrangements.
