Perfect location for St Pancras station and early morning Eurostar train. Staff friendly and helpful. Room clean and well presented, on the small side but perfect for what we needed.

The rooms were clean and the reception staff was helpful! Very convenient location next to the underground station and plenty of dining/pub options nearby. The shower took a while for the water to heat up and the pillows were a bit flat but not a dealbreaker for me. Overall, I’d recommend this place to those who are looking for a reasonably priced place to stay for a short trip.

Hotel is very nice, affordable, easy access to train and buses. Just make sure you are very close to your partner if sharing room as is very small, also the restroom and shower is shared. Other than that recommended for a short one to three nights top. Friendly staff made the difference.

This hotel is convenient to the train station, which was nice. The people that work there are very nice. The room is super small, no air conditioning and the area (outside) can be loud at night with people talking loud, arguing, and cars speeding in the area.

I have stayed here probably at least 5 times over the last few years and now don't look for anywhere else if they have a room. Small family owned hotel that is always clean with staff who are lovely. Surprisingly quiet at night given that it only about a 3-5 minute walk from Kings Cross/St.Pancras
