surprising Find near Euston

convenient locationfriendly atmospheresmall size
this hotel really surprised me with its convenient location and friendly atmosphere. breakfast was a high point with hot drinks freely available in the lounge, a great touch. the proximity to both bus and tube stations simplified getting around the city, very important for me.
my biggest issue was the small size of the room, it was difficult to manage with luggage. i also found the lack of soundproofing to be an issue, disrupting my sleep quite a bit.
Location

the hotel had good access to public transport, especially tube stations like euston and warren street, allowing quick connections. pancras international was also easily reachable because it was only one stop away. the immediate street itself was surprisingly quiet despite its central positioning.
