    Extremely tiny space. The carpet was in very poor condition and this let it down.

    The room was smaller than I imagined. I think the management could improve the place with a new carpet.

    The shower was wonderful in a totally renovated new bathroom. The bed was comfortable and clean . Staff was extremely kind and helpful. The cold breakfast was more than sufficient to start the day. At night the area was very quiet - conducive to a good sleep. The hotel was very near Kings Cross/St Pancras stations for those who need transportation.

    Needs decorating. Photo’s make it look more luxurious than it was. Room smaller than I was expecting. No mention that there wasn’t a lift lots of stairs to 2nd floor. Building work going on outside so noisy.

    Didn’t have breakfast continental only available. Close to St Pancras/Kings Cross. Staff friendly and professional helped with our cases. Good shower and very clean.

    The room was very very small. The walls had marks on it as if someone had taken down pictures and were grimy. The walls are in desperate need of a fresh coat of paint.

    It's in a great location - close to Kings Cross/St Pancras. The room was very clean. We appreciated a very new/recently renovated bathroom. The staff at the reception desk were very friendly.

    We did a room with a full bed and twin for our child and it was quite small, a bit of our challenge with several bags of luggage. However, it was clean and had AC and a window which opened and that was appreciated.

    Proximity to transportation and food options, plus a playground about a 10 mins walk away.

    Not much hanging space, stairs could be a problem for some, not sure if a lift was available.

    Excellent location near kings Cross station. Easy walk to British museum. Room small but comfy with tea and coffee, bathroom clean with good shower. We had a good continental breakfast at a small extra charge.

    The bathroom didn’t have anywhere to hang towels, so we draped over shower screen so it wasn’t that much of an issue.

    Very comfortable beds, the bed was on the lower ground floor so we didn’t hear the construction at all. Staff were extremely nice. The location was good, quite close to King’s Cross.

    I hadn’t been aware we could have had breakfast. It didn’t bother us too much but there is some noise.

    The front staff were always extremely friendly. The hotel is in a great location, a short walk from KingsX so it was convenient to leave our bags on travel days. The room was small but nicely decorated and the shower was also nice.
