Pros:

Nous avons aimé l'emplacement central de l'hôtel, la propreté, la gentillesse du personnel, et le très bon accueil.

Cons:

C'etait prévu, mais nous confirmons que la chambre est vraiment très petite et qu'il n'y a pas assez de rangement pour poser nos affaires.

Ottima posizione, ma insonorizzazione/isolamento insufficiente per il prezzo pagato
Pros:

La posizione è molto comoda, a pochi minuti a piedi da King's Cross e St Pancras, ideale per chi deve prendere un treno la mattina presto. Il personale è stato cortese e il check-in semplice.

Cons:

L''esperienza è stata fortemente penalizzata dal rumore. L'insonorizzazione della camera era insufficiente e durante la notte si sentivano chiaramente i rumori provenienti dall'esterno e dalle altre camere, rendendo difficile dormire bene. Gli spifferi non hanno aiutato.
Considerando il prezzo pagato (ben oltre i 150£), mi aspettavo un livello di comfort e tranquillità decisamente superiore. Per una tariffa più contenuta avrei probabilmente valutato il soggiorno in modo diverso, ma a questo prezzo il rapporto qualità-prezzo non è stato soddisfacente.

Perfect for a quick overnight if catching the train. More suitable for 1 person.
Pros:

Close to St Pancreas for an early train to Paris.

Cons:

The room was the smallest room I have ever stayed in. Could not stand up next to the bed if two people were there. Cannot stand beds pushed up to a wall. Felt like I was in a small caravan.
