small but comfortable room for one person, prime location to St Pancras station.
Pros:

It certainly is a small room but I was on my own and I really just needed to be close to St. Pancras. So I was perfectly comfortable for one night.

Cons:

The water pressure of the shower head was very low - I wasn't sure it was working until I waited for a minute and then it was ok. Bit of leakage also but nothing tragic.

Hand location, but not clean or quiet!!
Pros:

Near to the train station

Cons:

The constant noise from ppl coming and going and the doors banging constantly. The cleanliness of the bathroom and toilet left a lot to be desired! I had my own cleaning wipes but I shouldn’t have to use them.

Super Lage, freundliches Personal, leider sehr hellhörig
Pros:

Ich habe das Hotel für eine Nacht gebucht, da es direkt na Kings Cross / St Pancras liegt und wir am Morgen früh einen Zug nehmen mussten. Die Lage des Hotels ist unübertroffen.
Die Dame am Check-in war super freundlich. Wir waren eine Stunde zu früh dran, aber sie kann trotzdem schnell rum und der Checkin ging auch total schnell und problemlos.

Cons:

Das Hotel ist sehr hellhörig. Man hört im Zimmer die Gespräche auf dem Flur so laut, als wäre überhaupt keine Tür vorhanden.

genuinely enjoyed it, did not mind at all.
Pros:

location is great, housekeeping everyday, hot water, iron and hairdryer available, even room service. lots of plug and outlet space.

Cons:

the sink is extremely small, shower had a bit of mould from dampness, the mattress was a bit on the hard side, not much space to move, be aware that there are only narrow stairs to get you up with your luggage

Pros:

Sijainti todella hyvä, kaikki palvelut lähellä ja liikkuminen helppoa. Check in ja check out vaivatonta. Hotelli oli helppo löytää. Sängyt hyvät.

Cons:

Huone oli todella ahdas ja pieni kahdelle hengelle. Pyyhkeestä löytyi pitkä hius, muuten siistiä. Vaikkei katu vilkas ollutkaan kuului sieltä äänet melko selkeästi yöllä, joten en herkkäuniselle suosittelisi.

Unfortunately disappointing, though handy for 3 big stations
Pros:

Friendly staff

Cons:

Dodgy narrow stairs, felt dangerous, especially with cases. Double room was tiny. No room to move with bags in. Door opening filled only gap in room. Should be a single.
