I have stayed in many hotels around the kings Cross area for business. This hotel is only suitable for a very short stay and although ideally close to Kings Cross for transport the amenities and room are very tired and need of a lot of TLC. I booked a double en-suite. A few thoughts: No chair, very tight space, no cupboard, very poor wifi glad I had my own. Toilet seat broken, shower door broken, intermitten poor water presure in shower. Decoration poor, no heating they must put it on when it gets really cold. No soundproofing in rooms. Upside, it was quiet enough, close to transportation, and if you want a room for a very short period of time then this might work for you. I gave this a try to see what it was like, but will return to my trusted hotels around this location.

Reviews are correct. Place was convenient for taking trains like tube, Eurostar, LNER. The neighbourhood was safe and quiet. Staff was courteous. Room was small but had a bathroom in room. Bed was a bit too soft but covers were comfortable. Was perfect for our stay as we just needed a place to sleep.

Look for cheap options somewhere else

As we needed hotel for a few hours only, we knew that we are going to book something which might not be even close to adequate, and this hotel did not disappoint us - mouldy walls and bedding, window wouldn’t shut. I was scared to switch light off in case something will start crawling out from corners. The best thing of it - was leaving. Person who checked as in was nice though.
At first it doesn’t look as bed
