Would recommend to anyone!
Pros:

I LOVED my stay at The House of Toby! The staff were exceptional, so friendly and welcoming and were a highlight of my trip. The family checking out in front of us commented when leaving that they will definitely be back again, and I couldn’t have agreed more. I would recommend this place to anyone looking to stay somewhere warm, welcoming and convenient. We were allowed to store our luggage before check in and after check out and I really appreciated this. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!

Pros:

Läget nära Kings Cross station. Lugn omgivning. Trevlig personal.

Cons:

Litet och trångt rum. Ingen plats att lägga upp väskorna så de fick ligga på golvet. Mycket liten toalett/dusch vilket innebar att det inte fanns någonstans att ställa necessärerna. Dragit från fönstren.
Wifi fungerade inte.
