Honored to be a 'regular' guest

The staffs are simply amazing, so helpful, friendly, and personable, almost like family friends once we get to know them. So comfortable to stay. Some noise from the outside or other guests with young children can be a bit disturbing but that cannot be helped and the staff will try to accommodate the needs, wonderful!

Small hotel close to Eurostar train station, and the metro station. Basic accommodation, the room was a bit small, but appropriate for the price. But was a bit surprised they charged for luggage storage on checkout day.

We were told to come back as room not ready at check in time. Went back and still not ready. The room inside was worse. Main plugs were behind wardrobes, beds. There was two single beds and a double. Room clearly was a double or two singles. No room to move. By didn’t work. Kettle has to be moved to the floor to plug in. Room was a mess. Would not recommend

This hotel was a ten minute walk from st pancras/kings cross, an easy walk even with suitcases. It was right next to a small park, and I found several options for cafes, and restaurants nearby. It’s a quiet safe neighborhood that’s quite walkable and convenient to public transportation. I chose this hotel because it was affordable and a great value for the location, private bathroom with shower, a £5 continental breakfast that included a croissant, deli meat, cheese, cereal, toast and jam; and they had a 24hr concierge and were more than happy to hold our luggage so we could check in straight from the airport/train then walk to breakfast while we waited for our room to be made.

Cramped and no ventilation

The room was very small, there is no elevator, and the bathroom was very tiny. There was no fan or a/c and the room was very hot. The front desk was staffed 24/7, so I felt secure. The bed sheets had hairs on them and there was mold in the bathroom.
