Un excelente lugar para alojar y disfrutar Londres
Pros:

Hotel muy bien ubicado, a 5min a pie de estación St Pancras, y de locomoción para todos los puntos imperdibles de la ciudad. El staff tiene una excelente disposición de acogida y servicio, la limpieza del lugar es excelente y siempre hay café a libre disposición para recuperar energías. He alojado dos veces y en ambas ocasiones ha sido una buena experiencia!

Such a great value stay!
Pros:

Staff was extremely friendly!! Room was a bit small and ceiling were a bit low, but we didn't stay in the room much anyways. Was originally worried about the shared bathrooms aspect, but there are so many bathrooms on each floor (or you could go to different floors) and there wasn't an issue at all about having my own space. Also, the bathrooms were much nicer than I expected and had plenty of space.

Excellent staff with personal, friendly service. Good location to tube or walk into West End.
Pros:

Friendly and helpful staff at reception. Tea and filter coffee in the lounge was a nice touch. Storage of bags in a secure room was helpful after check out. Big shout out to Muhammad who helped organise retrieval of lost property, writing to us quickly with options to get items posted or picked up.

Cons:

The room was a little cold the first night. Radiator was blocked behind the bed.

Pokud hledáte ubytování jen na přespání a pak hurá do víru Londýna, tak je toto ideální hotel.
Pros:

Pokoj byl na přespání dobrý. Postel pohodlná. Lokalita hotelu za mě ideální. Není na rušné ulici ale kousíček od centra a nádraží King Cross. Okolní restaurace byli super, za rozumné ceny a živé. Hned na rohu i skvělá kavárna třeba na snídani.

Cons:

Vybavení pokoje bylo spíše skromné. Televize malinká a třeba rychlovarnou konvici na čaj nečekejte. Stejně tak ledničku nebo nějaké police. Byla tam jen velká skříň na ramínka a malinký stoleček se židlí.
Nicméně jak říkám - na přespání dostačující.

Alles in allem eine gute Qualität für das, was man bezahlt.
Pros:

Sehr zentral gelegen, Bahnhof Kings Cross in nur 10 Minuten zu erreichen. Das Zimmer war in perfekter Lage mit einem perfekten Preis. Genial, wenn du planst, ein paar Tage in London zu verbringen.

Fantastic, friendly home-from-home in middle of London.
Pros:

Such a friendly, pleasant place - lovely family in charge, shared facilities were spotless, great rooms, really comfortable. Just round the corner from Marchmont street with a lovely little row of local shops and cafes. For this price I honestly cannot imagine better. I'll stay again

Cons:

Nothing. I had a room with a shared bathroom (that was what I booked) and there was no problem about access and it was spotless. It was great.
