Liked: Staff & service
No mention that our room would be across the street from the "lobby". Very tight and narrow, steep stairs down to the room below the street level. Also very noisy - we could hear the trains at San Pancras and the outside noise. The walls must've been very thin too as we could hear the other folks conversations! Room was very small - wouldn't want to stay here for any longer than a quick overnight stay.

Adela

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
It was exactly as expected for a budget hotel: reception friendly, room clean and quiet, and the ability to leave luggage on check-out day. One small negative was an email before I left home stating that the room was service-free and that any extra service required would be charged. Whilst I understood the conditions, it wasn't very welcoming, and a short 'thank you for staying with us' or 'we look forward to your visit' would have taken the unwelcome edge off it.
