Hotel in a fantastic location!
This is a small hotel in old buildings with small rooms. However the rooms and bathrooms are up-to-date and very clean. The service was great - when we arrived at 2am, the desk clerk helped us carry our bags upstairs. The location is fantastic - across from the Kings Cross station and is a great neighborhood.

The room was incredibly small. But we had a very quick night and it was located extremely close to the train station. Probably would not stay again as the room was just too small for 4 people. 2 people and one night would have been fine. Easy to check in and out and friendly staff.

I stayed one night between arriving in London at Heathrow and leaving London by train from King’s Cross the next morning. The hotel was easy to get to, staff was really nice, and the room was perfect. Would have stayed longer if I could have.
