“The location is a real asset, especially for those needing quick access to King's Cross. Rooms seem to vary quite a bit; some offer practical kitchenettes, though bathrooms can be surprisingly compact. I think it's a solid choice if you prioritize location and don't mind a bit of variability in the room quality.”
