    Very close to Kings Cross station

    Uncomfortable bed Stained towels No hot water in the shower in the morning No plug sockets by the bed Basement bedrooms are seemingly just above the tube, disturbed by train noises until late and awoken by them early No sound proofing so 1) noisy guests in the corridors could be heard at all times of the night 2)…

    The location was good.

    It was in a very noisy area. As there was no air con we had to have the window open all of the time. The mattress was dreadful.
