The room was great. Spacious still for 4 people. Only stayed for one night.. but it was in walking distance to tube stations.. great area for cafes and bars. The main bonus was it was away from the tourist trail!

A great place to stay when visiting London. Centrally located, very clean, great air conditioning. Luggage storage and friendly staff. Only complaint was lack of lounge area, rooms are small and there isn't anywhere that you are allowed to eat outside your room if you don't want to go out. Overall I highly recommend.

We stayed three nights, Upon check in we were informed the wifi was down, and were working on it. During the whole of our stay the WiFi was out of use. Breakfasts we’re very busy with seating overflowing into to bar area, was a little unsafe having to carry hot drinks passing people whilst they waited to be seated. Overall pleasant stay, rooms clean ideal location close to Kings cross.

Clean spacious double room with sofa for for relaxing, clean and tidy bathroom with plenty towels and toiletries, quiet on an evening 10 min walk from Kings-cross station. Only thing missing was some bottle. water in room. Luggage storage after check out so you can still explore without dragging case around. Would definitely stay here again though for future trips to London.
