This property is a short walk from King’s Cross station . It has a 24 hr reception with comfy sofas. The rooms are clean but small and I found the mattress very hard. There is a lift so it is an accessible property. They offer luggage storage . Overall it is an acceptable hotel for a 1-2 night stay in London.
