Rebecca Graves

01 March 2010 Rebecca would recommend this property

Liked: this hostel is EXCELLENT for nights out. Every night, they offer cheap nights out for everyone including loads of free drinks and cheap meals - perfect for backpackers! - we stayed in a private room which was perfect for us although there is no air-con, just a fan and you can't open the windows at night because it's in a noisy location. Loads of clubs and bars are close and the tube station is only 3 mins up the road. Staff were excellent and really helpful - free breakfast!

Disliked: Rebecca left no negative feedback.
