Christopher's place is a great place! Very central to many tube lines, and of course, international railways which is super helpful for those backpacking. I also love that a market was set up outside of Kings Cross (perhaps only for the holiday season, not sure) and you have a permanent Black Sheep coffee there too, which is so amazing to have nearby and far better than Pret and Costa. I work out a lot so having a Barry's walking distance away is also a plus! The room itself is also extremely warm and we know how important that is in London during the winter months. Christopher does his best to maintain this place pretty clean in all the places that matter and the bed is quite comfortable. It can be a little difficult to locate at first but he has such excellent communication and it so friendly, he will assist you in checking in, even at later hours. I totally recommend this place, especially for lone travelers that are simply looking for something affordable for a short trip.
