Good for a short stay as room is too tiny! But you cant beat the location for the price you pay!
Pros:

Location was fantastic! Very clean! Thankful that they stored our luggages!

Cons:

Room for 4 people was way too small for 4 adults! But if you are checking in at midnight and checking out early morning, i guess its fine!

No Air Con and noisy.
Pros:

Shower.

Cons:

Shower room was tiny, and I couldn't sit on the toilet properly. The bed was creaky and there was no Air Con so the room was stifling. With the window open the noise from the surrounding area was horrendous. Didn't get much sleep at all.

Prima verblijf voor een nacht.
Pros:

Locatie dicht bij het station

Cons:

Kleine kamer, maar prima voor 1 nacht. Helaas geen airco op de kamers, terwijl het buiten erg warm was.

Lovely hotel in a prime position adjacent to St Pancras and Kings Cross stations.
Pros:

We needed a hotel for an overnight stay and early morning departure to catch a Eurostar train from St Pancras and this hotel ticked virtually all our boxes. It was literally a couple of minutes walk to St Pancras and at a very reasonable price. The reception was manned 24hrs with very pleasant and friendly staff. Our room was very clean, quiet and comfortable and the separate shower and toilet facilities were likewise clean and well maintained. I think the fact that we (wife and I) have agreed that we would happily use the Alhambra in the future sums up our experience there.

Cons:

The only thing that I missed when booking was the lack of a lift and I did struggle getting to the top floor. So for anyone who has reduced mobility my advice is check out ground/first floor availability.
