Nice enough but room was tiny.
Location good for Kings Cross. Place was nice enough but the room was super small. Had less than a foot either side of the bed. Room was clean and tidy though.

Don’t bother!!!
Was in G05 right next to the air handling units and the construction work. No chance of any sleep. If I was told prior to booking I’d have gone to the Point A hotel on the corner. Other rooms may be ok. But the ground floor ones out the back….don’t waste your money!

Horrific Noise & No Warning
Checkin on Friday night was swift, no mention of breakfast. We were directed to go out the back door to the courtyard to find our rooms in a separate annex next to the loud air conditioning units, not great but manageable. We were awoken by the construction on the site the other side of the bedroom wall, the jackhammer was less than 2 meters away and recorded 107db on my phone (if we worked there we’d have to be given noise defenders). No mention of this construction was made at checkin or anywhere around the hotel. At checkout no apology was given. If you know this is going to happen advise it on your hotel bookings, let customers know in checkin and in their rooms so they can make an informed decision!
Enterance to room in courtyard. Note the ongoing building work the other side of the wall.

A nice hotel with friendly staff in a good location for getting around London conveniently via St Pancras. A cosy room that had everything we needed. Perfect for a couple of nights.
