the hotel stood just across from kings cross station. i had a early check in. after traveling for twelve hours, this was very welcome. the tub was also huge.

when i got there the staff tried to downgrade my room reservation from a large king-victorian room to a small room. after insisting they fix it, i got the correct room, but i had to persuade them so it was not a good start.
