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.

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.

This is a superb accommodation option close to Kings Cross with all Tube lines and train within easy reach. The apartment/studio was super clean and I found it a very quiet place and comfortable place to stay. I’ll definitely book again when I come back to London.

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.

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

Central location

Very nice and clean apartment. Central location. But bring your earplugs because very noicy from the street. Also cold in the apartment so worm sleeping clothes recomended (I stayed during winter). Change of windows would be a suggestion for the owner, both due to the noice and the draught. Very nice and quick reply from the staff in e-mail when I had questions.

Great place to stay but beware the stairs

This is a great place to stay Rooms are comfortable and it is extremely well equipped (other than a wine bottle opener) BEWARE the stairs are narrow, plentiful and there is no elevator; so getting luggage in and out is difficult. If you are young and fit this wont be an issue but I don't recommend to anyone with large amounts of luggage or more senior. This is on the whole a great place to stay with all the amenities and REALLY close to Kings Cross, I loved the small kitchen that meant you didn't need to pay London prices for all meals

Well equipted, central room with poor maintenance

Decent room and easy to access but some repairs are much needed. The radiator in my room did not work, doors close only after applying heavy pressure. Its a pretty noisy environment, but the location could not be more central. Equipment very good.

Apartment was spotless and as advertised. Would stay there again in a heartbeat. Had asked for and been promised early check in at 1. Arrived at 2:50 after a Transatlantic trip and was not able to access. Amazing gentleman on call got me in and into my apartment. Tiny, narrow scary stairs and no elevator. So if you are fit and travelling light, don’t hesitate. Cleanliness 5*

The location is absolutely amazing, 2 minutes and you're at KX and only a few minutes walk to Coal Drops Yard, which is well worth a visit. Accommodation was fine, the toilet seat wasnt attached but ok apart from that. The major issue is getting into the building, the vikey app wouldnt work at all we spent close to an hour over the couple of days we stayed trying to get into the building. The lock on the front door just didnt work, we only managed to get in due to others leaving the building. They explained theyd had similar issues (i have no idea how anyone actually got in efficiently). The bar underneath is extremely loud, so be prepared for a lot of noise during the night

Apartment was very clean and we were impressed at first. However huge draft through windows which meant we were freezing at night and had a very unpleasant night. It also meant we could hear lots of noise from outside. The next morning none of the electrics (apart from the lights worked). My husband went out to get food and when he came back he couldn't get in. To get into the apartment you do not get a key, you have to use an app, but the app kept saying you can't access the property at the moment. So I had to wedge open the apartment door and walk down to the main door to let him in. I then tried to have a shower but the water was stone cold. Hotels.com said the checkout is 11, but we received an email saying checkout at 10, so I messaged the owner and they confirmed we could stay until 11. However, someone knocked on our door at 10 expecting us to be ready to leave. Double glaze the windows, draft proof the windows, get normal locks for the front door and don't switch electrics off so your guests leave early and then it would be a pleasant stay.
