Liked: Great food with a fantastic discount for people staying at the hostel, funky and fun neighborhood, free breakfast is always a plus!

Disliked: Music could be loud in the evenings but a pair of earplugs take care of that no problem. Outlets are sparse so it's tricky to charge your phone.

Liked: The showers were nice and hot.

Disliked: I had a roommate who threw up all over the bathroom and staff did not clean it up. Only two out of three washing machines and dryers worked. The wifi did not work and staff did not try to address it. One young man, I think he was from South Africa, was very nice however.

Liked: great location, the rooms were spacious.

Disliked: the common room was kind of gross and badly lit in the basement, and the staff double as bartenders in the Belushi's Pub so it can be hard to get service. There isn't much in the way of facilities.

Liked: Great location, friendly staff, safe and secure.

Disliked: A bit noisy so you need earplugs some nights. The noise is from bars on the camden High Street, not the hostel.

Liked: the location is close to morning crescent indeed, but i dont like the camden district actually, too overcrowded

Disliked: it is just not safe to live here, especially in the mixed dorm!! where guys are only with their boxers in the room, some of them chill out till late midnight, and others are waken when they back to the room and created loud noise not able to sleep at all due to the noise from bar down below, and there is no lift which means you have to carry your luggage all the way up to your room the facilities are not so clean actually

Liked: Friendly, helpful staff

Disliked: I won't hold this against the property or in my rating, but I couldn't find anywhere to charge my phone or iPod using a USB port. Also, I was erroneously told that you have to buy easybus tickets online. Not accurate as I found out when I left to go to the airport. Driver took 10 pounds in cash to Stansted Airport.

Liked: Great Staff who were extremely freindly very attentive and knowedgeable about the area and what was available looked after my and other guests every need! good location, Nice comfy bed with warm quilt which is not always the case in other hostals, no noise from people on floor above which ruined the stay at the last hostal. Great HOT shower at peak time of morning, having the En-suite washroom/shower makes a big difference.

Disliked: Nothing serious, chill out room was a bit seedy but I was never likely to use it much anyway. l little bit of road noise through night but they cant change camden traffic and the plumming from the washroom was a liitle noisy when guests arrived back at 3am but again it's clutching at staws a bit! I Would still reccommend this hostel over many i've stayed in all over London.

Liked: I was in a 6 beds ensuite room at first floor. We expected "ensuite" meaning "with complete bathroom", instead we got only a shower. The staff has been pretty friendly and kind the whole time.

Disliked: Nothing really important.

Liked: I really liked that they provided large lockable cages underneath the beds where you can store a full-size travel pack ( not just your daypack). In fact it is large enough to fit 2 packs. The shower had good temperature and pressure. The beds were nice and seemed clean and weren't creaky like some other hostels.

Disliked: WiFi wasn't working when we got there =( The only complaint is that it is located next to a relatively busy street so there was quite a lot of noise during the night.

Liked: it was a nice, quiet place with ensuite bathroom, clean, there were free locker boxes under the beds for extra safety (bring your own locker for extra convenience), nice decoration.

Disliked: I would prefer separate male and female dorms rather than the mixed ones. luckily I was placed to a female room, but otherwise it wouldn't be that comfortable
