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.

Good value for money for this hotel very close to Kings Cross St Pancras.
A little noisy because of the traffic unfortunately but difficult to avoid that in this district

Though the double room I had was small but it was very comfortable and well designed. I found the room like being in the warm cuddle of my mum. I slept very well. My only criticism is that there is no room service or restaurant. And it is a walk to find this. But I would stay there again.

The room was super super tiny, no wardrobe or hair dryer. However we kind of figured it out before booking since the size info is listed anyway. Otherwise the room was clean, bed was comfortable and it was very conveniently located. There was coffee/tea available in the room as well as tv. It really was good enough for as for a few nights, we would probably stay here again. Receptionist was nice, easy online check in before arriving saved us some time:) Thank You

Great for a short stay, great location in kingsX
Great for one night. We have a small double room which was small and good for 1 night, my 6ft tall boyfriend struggled with the small room but we only booked 2 days before and there were no bigger rooms available.
