I thoroughly recommend a stay at Mike's. The room is very comfortable and the bathroom spotlessly clean. Although the room is on a bus route I couldn't believe how quiet it is.
Mike's an extremely thoughtful host; the folder with local information was really useful and it's a lovely touch to have wine as well as tea and coffee in the room.
The location is great. A couple of minutes walk from Kings Cross.
I would especially recommend the Canal Museum which is only a minute away. It's a delightful museum and I'd not realised just how interesting canals could be!
As a regular visitor to London I'm hoping that I'll be able to stay at Mike's place on future visits.
