Think this is the third or fourth time I’ve stayed. Incredible location for this needing quick access to St Pancras or Euston. Staff are lovely, check in always great. Rooms are clean, only small downside is bathrooms are tiny , but if it’s just a one night / two night it’s manageable. Theres a beautiful small street about 30 seconds away with a lovely cafe! A really treat in such a busy part of London. Area is at Pancras and Euston so extremely busy but sadly that comes with a lot of homeless and drug users. Never had a problem but I’ve never been by myself late at night there.
