Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The location is excellent, with Kings Cross / St Pancras being only a 5 minute walk away. The staff is very friendly, and the property and rooms are clean and well maintained. The only slight drawback is that the bathroom sink is very small and there is no space for toiletries. But with so many other great things about the place, I plan to keep coming back.

Know your strength before booking here. No lift, narrow stairs, constant fire doors, make getting bags to rooms a challenge. Checking in and out was fast and simple. Staff was helpful and knowledgeable. The Alhambra rooms are in two facing row houses. They're small -- tiny, actually -- but clean. It's all about location close to St. Pancras and King's Cross station.
