Excellent location but very small rooms and no space for just relaxing in the hotel
Pros:

if you are looking for a hotel with easy access to all the popular sights in london, then this is for you. Great access to public transport, restaurants and a bed to sleep on at the end of the day. Not the place for relaxing stay of just resting in your hotel.

Cons:

The rooms are so small. The first rooms we had were small but ok but the second room was a very tight space. The toilet is just at the head of the bed , withing a very small space. I think this was designed for young people, visiting for fun and just a bed to sleep on. Expensive for the size of a room that is like a closet despite the location.

Amazing staff and very clean but small rooms
Pros:

The staff were very friendly and always willing to be helpful if a need arose. They were amazing. The rooms were very clean.

Cons:

Although my room were very clean, it was also very small. As solo traveler staying for only 1 night, I had no issues with this. But for a longer stay, it would be uncomfortable over time. For the price I paid, the size was not great, however, the King’s Cross location is premium and just a short walk from the station so it does help balance.

Easy walk to station, rooms were clean and value for money.
Pros:

Position to kings Cross station.

Cons:

Unfortunately I was stuck in the lift for 20mins. Could not get staff as there was no phone in lift. In the morning when checking out, there was no apology, he said that I had broken the lift button.
I was also but in the basement rooms which was at street level at a bus stop where all night revellers were. When I question why I was put down there when I had requested to be next to my colleague, he said because I had come later then I got the last one.
