Excellent location about a block from King's Cross/St. Pancras stations. It was perfect for the nights before and after early/late trains. Very small rooms, but have everything you need, and very clean.

An enjoyable stay.

The room was small but clean and comfortable. The reception staff were very friendly. And the hotel is a stone's throw from Kings Cross station.

The internet doesn't work, especially if your room is far from the lobby or at the end of the corridor. Their solution is telling me to use the internet at the hotel nearby. I don't mind if the room is small or does not have all the amenities in the room (shampoo, etc), but you live in 2023, you really need the internet.

Perfect title for this sweet little hotel

This hotel reminds of the older *pension* style places in Eastern European and Scandinavian countries. This is a positive thing for me; no, they are not big rooms. But all the comforts are there. My room was small but the bed was really comfortable, the shower had great water pressure and plenty of hot water. Wifi was a 9 out of 10, but that is higher than other places I have stayed; there wasn't really a time I couldn't get online and find info I needed. I would definitely recommend the place and happy to have found it.

It was extremely difficult to get to our room. Steep stairs to carry our heavy suitcases down, maize like hallways. We would never have made our way out in a fire. T.v. didn't work.

No clean towels, locked outside, STOLE my perfume

This was really disappointing. The hotel didn't provide clean towels every day, they locked us outside the hotel around 9 pm for half an hour because the staff were on a 5 min break - I called in and they hang up on me. Worse of all, they went through my suitcase and stole a brand new Dolce & Gabbana perfume flask.

Great location & basic but passable quality rooms.

Excellent location to St Pancras station. If you’re looking for a hotel for 1 night at a reduced cost this is for you. Its passable in terms of rooms and the room I had was quiet away from road.
