Oh friends.......the bathroom doors are made of frosted glass. So if you are traveling with friends and you want some privacy - you won't have it. The door is almost translucent as soon as it gets steamy in the bathroom from a shower. Not to mention, it doesn't block out any noises, so I hope you are SUPER comfortable with whomever you are traveling with. This is my only complaint about the hotel, otherwise I liked it. I enjoyed this hotel's closeness to Kings Cross/St Pancras - it made train travel super easy.

Our only complaint is that we were not advised of the lack of an elevator beforehand. Upon arrival, staff assisted us with our baggage. However, upon departure, we had no assistance. This caused great difficulties for us as we were three floors up.

rooms were very small, beds were old and rickety, mattresses were too worn, bed springs were about to go. no lift in the hotel, which was fine as we knew about it beforehand, BUT the carpeted stairs were worn and the steps were wobbly so it made the ascent and descent very dangerous.

The property was ideally located, near the King's Cross Tube Station and St.Pancras International, making it easy to get anywhere in the city, and get out of the city quickly with no fuss. The accomodtion was simple and just what was needed....

Small rooms! Britta water was stale in the bottles in the room! Very hot in the room! No screens on window! Down covers, no options for lighter blanket! Water in shower was hard to figure out for for water!
