Felt at home in London
Pros:

Small, traditional style hotel run by attentive and cordial staff.
Reasonable price for central London. Both room and bathroom very nicely appointed, nicely decorated. Not large, but clean. Window opening to the back -- fresh air and quiet.
Downstairs lounge very cosy with (very good) coffee, compliments of the management. As the song says, "All I want is a room in Bloomsbury...." A good London experience.

Excelente para todo tipo de estancias y duración.
Pros:

Perfecta ubicación para hacer turismo, cerca de Metro y estación de tren. Zona segura. Tranquilo pero con varios pubs y sitios para comer y cenar en los alrededores. Buen tamaño de la habitación y cama muy cómoda. Baño pequeño pero suficiente. Puedes alojarte un fin de semana o más tiempo sin problema. Muy limpio y buen servicio de habitaciones. Recomiendo al 100%. Buen precio siendo Londres y esa zona.

Cons:

Faltaba un enchufe en el baño para el secador de pelo y alguno más en la habitación tipo USB por ejemplo. El ventilador un poco pequeño. La ducha debería tener un poco más de presión aunque de temperatura estaba muy bien.

Peu de prises aux abords du lit pour recharger les appareils.

Bon séjour
Pros:

Hôtel très bien situé à deux pas de St Pancras et permettant d'aller au centre à pieds. La chambre était petite comme c'est souvent le cas à Londres, mais la literie était excellente, bon point !
Les salles de bain communes étaient très bien aménagées et propres !
