All in all, it was a nice day. It was still quite warm in London, so the fan built into the wall along with the openable windows made the room very comfortable. I would stay there again.

This hotel, one of many small, several stories high, attached townhouse-like buildings, is a short walking distance from King's Cross underground station, the Piccadilly line of which goes right to Heathrow, so it is conveniently located. The Camden neighborhood it is in has charm and good restaurants and pubs. That said, the interior of the hotel is quite worn, and there is no lockbox, baggage room, elevator, or A/C. My top-floor, back-facing room did have a fan, and a window view of a lovely trees.

Very tiny and shower is a bit like a camping unit? But clean, well kept and location could not be better for St Pancras, Kings Cross Station. No elevator, but staff helped us take our luggage to second floor. It is perfect for a night before or after an early morning train or late incoming train.

The staff were very welcoming and helpful. The location was great for the price, but it was very noisy. The building is older so you can hear the people walking in the room above, people using the staircase, and people talking as though they were in the room with you. Other guests slammed their doors at different hours of the night as well. It is good for a night or two near the station but not for a longer stay.
