Great little hidden gem in London. The room was compact but immaculate with an amazing shower/toiletries and facilities. The bed was very comfortable and had a great nights sleep. Perfect location for jumping on the tube to get around the city with a 5 minute walk to KC or St. Pancras stations. Staff were polite, attentive, and welcoming. Plus, the added bonus of luggage storage to continue exploring after checking out.

It's a small room for two. Hard to have luggage opened. Newly renovated, Very close to King's Cross Station. Very convenient to take train to Cambridge / Oxford and other towns

Wonderful location, near to King’s Cross station which is very convenient. And most importantly, the room is well-equipped with air-conditioning as well which is perfect.

The sanitary conditions and facilities are very good, but the room service is in Indian English, which tests your listening skills. It's okay if there are no special circumstances. Ctrip customer service will help communicate in time if there are any problems.

The location of the hotel is relatively good, it can be reached in about 5 minutes from the subway station. But there is no clear sign outside the hotel that it is a hotel, only a thin round sign. The hotel room is so small that you can't even turn around in the toilet. In addition, the hotel almost did not clean and tidy up the room. We stayed for 4 days and only had room service for 1 day. We also have to ask for coffee and toilet paper. I wonder if most London hotels are like this. But we spent almost HKD 1,700 a night and received such service. There is really no chance of next time.

The hotel is very close to Kingscross train station and is very convenient for living nearby. There are a variety of restaurants and supermarkets. If you need to stay one more night before traveling, it is a good choice. The Indian clerk at the front desk is very friendly to customers and the check-in experience is very pleasant. The hotel has no elevator and is not very friendly to customers with large suitcases. You can consider taking out the things you need from the suitcase first and then leaving the suitcase at the front desk. Electric perfume sprayers are placed on each floor of the hotel, which may be a bit too fragrant. The house space is crowded, and you fall on the bed as soon as you enter the house. But there is a lot of space under the bed, so you can take out the things in the bag and stuff the bag under the bed.

The elevator was broken, but the waiter helped me carry my luggage up and down the stairs. The WIFI didn't work. I got the room card and opened the door to find someone inside. The soundproofing was not good either.

Small, too small, pitiful. The waiters are all Sange, which may be difficult for people who have never lived in the UK to understand. It is highly not recommended to check in with suitcases as there is no place to stay. 😂

The location is very good, just a few minutes walk from Kings Cross. This price is a very good choice. The front desk staff is Indian, and the service is surprisingly good. I have been in the UK for so long and have stayed in many hotels with almost zero service attitude at the front desk. It is rare to have such enthusiastic service attitude as this Indian guy, which is really a surprise. The disadvantage is that the room is too small, but the price is cheap and the hygiene is relatively clean, which is acceptable. Overall, it is a very cost-effective hotel near Kings Cross.

The room is very small. You can reach everything by stretching your hand from the bed. I think it is good for a solo traveler, but it is a little small for two people. The toilet paper is much thinner than in China. The wash basin always covers half of the toilet. The bedside is a little slippery, but overall I think it is OK. The TV is super big and it is very comfortable to watch. It is a bit like living in a capsule. When traveling, you should enjoy everything unknown. Don't complain. Reduce expectations and you will get more than you can imagine.

The guy at the front desk was very nice. The hotel room was small, with the bed right at the entrance, but the location was very convenient, clean and tidy. It was a good value for money in London.

Environment: The room is so small, it's almost like living in a basement. I can't even turn around to go to the toilet. Hygiene: It's ok, I don't ask for much at this price. Facilities: Small but complete, but no hair dryer. Service: Indian front desk, their spoken English is hellish.

Almost all the rooms are in the basement and the rooms are too small. I have stayed in several hotels in the UK, and this hotel actually charges a deposit of 25 pounds per night, but the hygiene is still acceptable.
