Pros:

The location is good, it was very clean and the staff are super nice.

Cons:

The toilet didn’t have window and the smell can get strong and there’s no elevator. It’s a bit hard to go to the 3rd floor with luggage. But it’s not something that’d make me never go back.

Bien mais améliorable
Pros:

Propre, facile d’accès
La salle de bain est très bien, bonne pression et de la place pour se déplacer
Personnel très aimable

Cons:

Certains ressorts du matelas étaient cassés, ce qui apportait un peu d’inconforts
Il manquerait quelques crochets et cintres pour ranger nos affaires
Le double vitrage manque, les vitres sont trempées le matin et l’air frais rentre très facilement

Top Lage, aber sehr kühl und einfach
Pros:

Lage ist absolut top, Betten waren angenehm und weich, Personal bemüht, WIFI war Ok.

Cons:

Mein Zimmer lag im Keller neben dem Eingang, es war allgemein sehr kühl im Zimmer, besonders im Bad war der Boden eiskalt (draußen hatte es 12°C, drinnen nicht viel mehr) ich musste mir ein Handtuch zusätzlich zur Fußmatte nach dem Duschen unterlegen, da es mir sonst zu kalt war.
Im Bad gab es keinen Hacken etc. um etwas aufzuhängen. Alleine konnte ich alles über die Duschwand hängen, aber mein Zimmer war für 4! Personen gedacht. Wie man das dann lösen soll ist mir unklar.
Frühstück war okay, man sollte sich halt nichts erwarten, einfaches Continental.

Friendly, great location
Pros:

Good spread and variety for cold breakfast buffet and good window of opportunity to eat - 7:30-9:30
Staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. I really appreciated being able to store luggage securely on travelling days. The hotel was quiet despite it's very convenient location to Kings Cross station. Would certainly book again.

Cons:

I can't think of anything - very good value for money in Central London

Ravie d'avoir choisi cet hôtel pour mes 2 nuits à Londres.
Pros:

L'hôtel est à proximité directe à pied de King's Cross et de la gare internationale de Saint-Pancras. Il est aussi possible de visiter en marchant à partir de l'hôtel. La chambre est petite mais propre.

Cons:

Les lampes de chevets.

Pros:

La posizione sicuramente ottima, 5 minuti a piedi dalla stazione/metropolitana di King’s Cross St Pancras. Cordialità dello staff.

Cons:

Dalle foto le camere sembravano molto più spaziose, non so se a noi è capitata quella più piccola in assoluto (non avevamo pretese, peró per 5 notti iniziava ad essere stretta dopo un pó, eravamo in 2). Poco spazio per appendere i capi (non c’era un vero e proprio armadio).
Dentro uno dei cassetti dell’appendiabiti non siamo sicuri di cosa fosse (non l’ho di certo toccato) ma probabilmente vi era un paio di pantaloni lasciato da un altro cliente, e questo mi lascia il dubbio sul come viene fatta la pulizia della camera. Ho anche la certezza che le lenzuola non siano state cambiate in quanto una macchia lasciata per sbaglio da noi con il cibo d’asporto è rimasta sempre lì. (Menziono peró che il bagno peró l’abbiamo sempre trovato pulito; unica nota dolente di esso peró era che da lì proveniva già da quando abbiamo messo piede in camera una puzza abbastanza nauseante di fogna. L’abbiamo fatto presente e ci è stato detto che avrebbero verificato. Al nostro ritorno alla sera non l’abbiamo più sentita ma grazie probabilmente a del profumo che avevano utilizzato, perché poi é sempre tornata.

Pros:

Kleine maar mooi gerenoveerde kamer met privé badkamer.
Ontbijt was redelijk goed voor een lage prijs, maar geen English breakfast.
Vriendelijk personeel.
Rustig gelegen, maar niet ver van King's Cross/St. Pancras station

Cons:

Een handdoekhouder in de badkamer en naast de wastafel zou handig zijn.

Pros:

The location is nice and very central.

Cons:

The room was cold and one small heater was not enough to heat it. I had to enter the bed and work there just to warm my feet.

Good value, clean, well located, friendly budget hotel
Pros:

Great location on quiet square close to kings cross. Staff all welcoming and friendly. Good sized room (we had a triple). Excellent continental breakfast with fresh fruit and good selection.

Cons:

Was a bit noisy as located under the breakfast room, and couldn’t turn bright light off in the vestibule.
