Courteous, friendly staff at desk and cleaners. Rooms spotless. Good location but far enough from the crowds and sound/vibration of the underground from King's Cross. We had a twin. Fine for those travelling light but limited space for lots of luggage. Ensuite is shower with no bath tub. Good size compared to size of room. Large mounted tv with remote where can log into Netflix on your own account. Tea/coffee provided also hairdryer. Lovely fluffy toilets. Windows are in keeping the area so not as noise reducing as double glazing so bring ear plugs. Strict no smoking policy. 24 hour check in with possible earlier than 2pm standard checkin time. Checkout at 11am which is very reasonable. Lots of places nearby to buy food from all parts of the world and minimarkets. I would stay again for short visits to London.
