A great little hotel in a great location. 5 mins walk from Kings Cross St. Pancras. I have stayed here twice, in the same room and liked it very much. The single room is small but fine for 2 days / nights.
There is a good burger house on the corner as you approach the hotel and plenty of other ethnic food places too. Vietnamese, Italian and good old MacD's and KFC. You will not go hungry.
The rates are good, the staff are friendly and helpful and overall I can thoroughly recommend it.
The room was spotless , the sheets and the towels very clean as well.
What we need breakfast and dinner, and that will be perfect. The staff is polite and helpful
Thanks again.
It was very cramped but clean and perfectly adequate for a short stay.

Great location. Rooms clean nice powerful short. Friendly receptionist. Fabulous location for a weekend in London or a stop before getting on Eurostar or other train net work. - Rome is small

We had a family room with 2 double beds which was perfect for a 1 night short stay. The room was clean and had everything we needed. The only thing that lets it down is that it is already looking a bit tatty despite being quite new.
Location convenient, affordable price and well connected with different transport options. Room small but as advertised and had all essentials.

The noise from the outside road was quite loud and I had to cover the noise with White noise on my phone. Although there was a television, it was only functional through apps, no terrestrial TV.
