Doesn’t stand out as a hotel from the outside you could and I did just walk by. Such a shame because everything inside and staff I couldn’t fault. More labelling as a hotel needed

Great stay

I was slightly apprehensive before arrival after reading some negative reviews. However we had a pleasant time at the hotel and have no complaints. Although compact the room was clean, modern and new, and the air con was appreciated . The staff were all lovely and friendly. London hotel rooms are small and I think if you know what to expect you will be less shocked. The hotel was in a great location just 5 mins walk from King’s Cross. I would recommend the hotel and would stay again

Good value first stay. Good bed and shower.

Really impressed with my first trip. I was in a room without windows which made it nice and dark and quiet for a good night's sleep. Shower was good. Lamps for reading and kettle in the room with good quality PG tips T bags. Friendly staff. Helpful pre stay information by email was clear. £25 deposit preauthorisation taken automatically and refunded promptly.
