Great location for St Pancras, Kings Cross and Euston stations. Room was nice and clean. Small but not unusual for central London hotel. Wifi was good. Very close to the main road and so could hear traffic noise, especially horns blowing.

Stayed for 2 nights with my son. The staff were so helpful, polite and truly lovely people who genuinely wanted you to enjoy your stay! Something that lacks in larger hotels. The rooms had everything we needed and were clean. The location is excellent for Kings Cross and St Pancras stations and also about a leisurely 30 minute walk into Leicester Square. Would highly recommend this wee gem of a hotel- I will definitely be back
