As a female travelling alone my priority was to feel safe, which I did. I didn’t want to spend a fortune but wanted a nice hotel. I travelled to Euston and was meeting friends in Kings Cross so this hotel was perfectly located being within walking distance of both and not off the beaten track. The hotel has a welcoming lobby/bar, and staff were friendly. I paid £175 for a basic room, which was just that, but importantly it was clean and the bed and pillows were super comfy. My room on the 5th floor faced the street so I could hear traffic, but it didn’t bother me. I was pleased to have a fan in the room as it was hot weather and being on 5th floor, fitted restrictors meant the windows could only be opened slightly. There was a separate toilet and the bathroom was tiny. The room had a safe, plenty of plug/USB sockets and the hotel provided an iron and ironing board as soon as I asked. Breakfast felt a bit like eating in a canteen but there was plenty of hot and cold choice, even though I didn’t arrive to eat until half an hour before breakfast finished. It was particularly useful that my room was ready early on the day of check in and that check out wasn’t until 11:00. I was able to leave my suitcase at the hotel until the end of the day after checking out. All in all I felt it worth doing a detailed review as this hotel ticked a lot of boxes for a budget stay and although I am a bit of a fussy customer, I was quite impressed.
