Really cozy apartment! Great location next to a train station, it was easy to get around the city via Tube. Twice during our stay we walked from the apt to Camden Market along the canal and it was so nice! This place had everything we needed

Great location and excellent price. While there was some construction and general noise outside, it didn’t bother me much overall, I had a good stay.

Det var utroligt varmt i de dage, vi var der. Men med blæsere i lejligheden gik det. Og bortset fra varmen, var det en meget fin lejlighed med god beliggenhed, så vi vil bestemt anbefale den.

Close to St Pancras

The location is very good for travel from St Pancras. The noise of renovations next door was not so great but that will be temporary. The owners take great care to keep the property at a high standard. A broken blind was fixed within hours of us reporting it. The space is 'cosy' for a couple.

Great stay! Lovely clean room in a great area right across from Kings cross station. The one thing to look out for is that our room was on the top floor and had 4 flights of stairs with no lift, no problem for us but could be an issue for others

Konumu çok iyi bir otel. Merdiveni biraz dar ve dik ama sadece valiz çıkarırken sorun olacağını düşünüyorum. Meşhur gezme yerlerine ortalama 25 dk uzaklıkta. Tek eksisi ısıtması ve camların fazlaca ses geçirmesi

A great studio apartment in a fantastic location. Very modern yet characterful, and well appointed. I love the location overlooking the platforms and trains at Kings Cross. Naturally it is quite noisy because of where it is, but I expected it would be and took earplug’s for over night. Otherwise I liked the noise of the trains and the general hubbub outside. The apartment was warm but there is a good fan and the windows open. I would definitely stay here again.

The host was very helpful and extended my check out as my daughter was poorly. Beautiful accomodation and close to the centre and train station. It was noisy when I stayed but only as there’s works being carried out next door. Will definitely be staying again.

Good value next to Kings X

Great location next to Kings X. Clean rooms and well appointed for a couple of nights stay. Communication could have been better. We were given one room in confirmation the day before which was moved to another the day of.

Great place but the pics are misleading

I don’t think it looked quite like the pictures but it was very comfortable and the bathroom was very nice. Slightly smaller than expected but clean and convenient.

This is my third stay at this hotel. The only drawback is the stairs, but the spacious and comfortable rooms, complete with a small pantry, make it feel like a home away from home. I would recommend this hotel for visitors with small luggage, as navigating with large bags can be challenging. During this stay, we encountered some issues with the toilet. However, as always, the staff were extremely helpful and provided 24/7 support to resolve the problem. Despite these challenges, we are happy to stay here again when we return to London.

Super convenient location. Apartment was as described. I stayed in apartment 6 on the 3rd floor, note the stairs are narrow and quite steep and there is no lift. Couple of things that would have turned this from good to excellent 1. Install a full length mirror in the room - a must! 2. Frosted glass in the bathroom, even with the blind, it felt quite exposing to have pretty much a full length window in the actual shower. 3. Invest in a decent fan - it wasn't too hot when I stayed, but the room got quite warm and the fan frankly didn't cut it on cooling the room down

Great property in a good location, it uses an app/website to access the building and property which is a bit clunky but seems to be a standard thing.
