Good place near King’s Cross St Pancras
I had to stay in London overnight at the last minute for an early journey the next day. I was stressed and anxious. I had a warm and friendly welcome at the hotel and moved to a more accessible room so I wouldn’t disturb others when I left at 5am. The room was comfortable and the shared toilet and shower both absolutely clean. A very comfortable stay.

The property is walkable from the train station. This hotel is better for the back packer. The sad part of it is this hotel had no lift, so it’s not conducive for a senior. You can hear the noise outside if your room is situated in the main road.
