Very convenient location with quietness. Safety is no problem during the daytime. The reception service is ordinary. Very limited space but enough for a single traveler.

Clean and comfortable
My stay was a bit last minute and booked on same day but was pleased with quality. The room was very clean and comfortable. It was quite noisy very late on the first night when it sounded like boxes were being moved down the stairs (I was in a basement room) but otherwise it was all fine.

A 1 night stay, chosen for proximity to St Pancras for a morning train to Paris. Basic, but clean, good location, 5 minutes walk to the station, very basic amenities (1 tea bag….go to Reception and they will give a couple more, plus UHT milk pod, as none in room). Overall, a good stay, good price, would use again if travelling from St Pancras.

The property is nice enough. Room was clean. Bathroom is a little odd in that there is not a proper door. It’s a thin door like thing and the shower area also has the toilet there. The sink is in the main room. The walls are fairly thin so you can hear the guests in other rooms. Overall a decent room though, would stay again.

Good location if you want to visit the British museum and use trains from st pancreas. Room itself is a tiny basement room. Noisy and smell kinda wired. But you get what you pay for.

Great location but it ends there...
Great location but the room felt like a prison cell...grey walls, tiny with some form of strange plastic/rubber bases and rock hard mattresses where you can feel the springs. Top of 4th floor with no lifts - which is fine for me but not if you had suitcases
