“The Heart Of The King'S strikes me as a genuinely convenient launchpad in London; I like that it's near King's Cross, and the digital check-in simplifies arrival. I noted how well-equipped the kitchen is, plus the quiet afforded by its fifth-floor location (with a lift, thankfully). For anyone seeking good value and a central base, this flat seems a smart choice.”
