We enjoyed our stay, the property is cute and cozy. The main suggestion would be more towels in the room. We only had one towel each, no hand towels or wash cloths.

Liked: Amenities
Really enjoyed our stay and staff were very friendly. Stayed in comfort double room (305), which was perfect for us. There are steps down into the bathroom that we enjoyed the added feature of. Room had a bathtub which was an added bonus. The tub/shower is tucked under the stairs to the next floor, but we are not tall so worked great for us. Lots of restaurant options close to hotel and was a great location for an earlier train from King’s cross. Room does not have fridge which we were prepared for and was no issue as grocery store very short walk away. Would stay here again if back in London.

The location was very convenient and the staff were friendly, but there were a few concerns during our stay. First, the heater in the room didn't work at all, so it was cold at night in London in March, when it was a bit chilly. According to the hotel, all the rooms are configured differently, so we were given a room that was completely different from the one we saw when booking on the website. (I needed a WritingDesk to use my laptop for work, but there was none in our room.)

Good hotel - very convenient for Kings Cross & St Pancras (which was our priority) - we were also able to walk back from the West end in around 35 mins. Rooms were OK, not luxury, but clean & well maintained. Staff were excellent & very helpful. One hint, we were in the basement (family room for 4), so you do get the sound from the tubes rumbling through, goes quiet after midnight. If you want to avoid that ask for a room on a higher floor.
