Single room was tiny but comfortable and had everything needed for a 1 night stay in London for gig that evening. Super close to Kings Cross & St Pancras stations but on a quiet side street. Only thing I did miss was option for a cooked breakfast which they did used to offer pre covid.

Pretty spacious and reasonably priced for London. 2 min walk to international and underground trains, plenty of options for food close by as well. Not very suitcase friendly, narrow stairs and lots of tight corners. Hallways smelled horribly of cigarette smoke but the rooms didn’t.

Comfortable, convenient, and an excellent value.

This was a one-night stopover. For the price, I couldn’t have asked for a cozier or friendlier place to sleep off my jetlag. I arrived around 1pm but was able to check in right away and received help getting my bag up the stairs. Yes, the single room was small, but it was spotless and had everything I needed - wifi, tv, kettle, ensuite with shower, blackout blinds, convenient outlets to charge devices. I also appreciated that they sold instant noodles and porridge and other snacks in the lobby. The staff were kind and welcoming. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Overnight stay. Very short distance from St Pancras International. Room was perfect for me and the duration of my stay. Staff were very friendly. The only downside was my room was in the basement, with very narrow stairs and I was carrying a big suitcase. But that will not stop me from staying there another time or recommending it

Affordable small room in a good location!

Very functional and exactly what we needed. Located across the street from St. Pancras and close to restaurants and public transportation. The room was pretty small but clean and worked well for our needs. The shower was a generous size and there was plenty of hot water. I appreciated how affordable our stay was and there was ample room for luggage storage after we checked out! Only detraction: there are no lifts and the stairwells are narrow so maneuvering with our luggage was a bit of a struggle.

Nice little hotel

A friendly welcome. The property was newly decorated and very clean and tidy. The room was small but perfectly adequate and very good value for money. Ideal for Eurostar departure as only a few minutes walk from St Pancras.
