charming stay near king's cross!
helpful staff kind gesture
The staff helped with directions to the hop on hop off bus and heathrow airport using the underground. i was charmed by the staff's friendliness. They even moved my room to the ground floor upon seeing my luggage since there wasn't a lift. this kind gesture was appreciated and made my arrival smoother.
The room was quite small, manageable for a solo traveler, but the bathroom felt tiny. It was about the size of a postage stamp.
