Really nice and comfortable room, and very quiet. Lovely staff!
I wish we could've tried the pub but it closed due to an issue, which is understandable.

Really lovely, staff friendly, room lovely and discounts on food and drink purchased from the bar. The location is perfect for the Hackney Empire and The Moth club. Bus stops near by going straight to St Pancras, couldn't ask for more really
