The proximity to the station was very convenient for travel. I found the single room to have a nice layout. I liked the placement of the sink opposite the bed. It was quite functional. The continental breakfast included a diverse and satisfying spread.
The corridors seemed a little cramped, which did affect moving around with luggage.

The location proved convenient, being a short walk to st pancras. a very kind person at the front desk allowed me to leave my bags after checkout. This let me explore without luggage. the room looked modern.
I noticed a lot of noise came from outside the room. My room was near a hallway door, and i heard sounds very clearly. i also heard floorboards all around me. it made my sleep uneasy.
