Liked: The big kitchen (which suits the large use), the bathrooms (as clean as possible), the location, the staff (very helpful, whatever you need) and the activities at night, specially the quiz.

Disliked: there should be lockers in the rooms, or at least some shelves or cupboards, because otherwise there isn't much space for the lugagge.

Liked: Breakfast was simple but good. Reading light in bed. Right near transport hub

Disliked: No free wifi. Tiny rooms meant no room for bags (sleeping area was fine though!). I left behind a toiletries bag as it was hidden under someone else's stuff- staff super kind and went up and found it for me to pick up

Liked: does what it says on the tin. Good clean and efficient service. Lots of people saying this that or the other about it but the simple fact is; You're in London - if you want a 500sqm room to yourself you have pay a little more than hostel rates. I was only there for one night and was going for dinner with friends on the night so did not join any activities at the hostel but it is lively in the bar so lots of socializing opportunities if you are that way inclined! Keep up the good work guys!

Disliked: Customer left no negative feedback.

Liked: Nice kitchen and common areas. Good atmosphere in bar and breakfast area. The little lockers at the head of each bunk are quite useful (but it would be great if they were big enough to fit a laptop into!).

Disliked: I'd recommend the Girls Deluxe room over the normal shared dorm - the deluxe room is still quite crowded (6 bunks side to side in one room) but there are partitions between the bunks so it's a bit like sleeping in a capsule hotel.

Liked: It's a nice hostel with great staff and the price is great, you even get breakfast! It was clean and good communications,

Disliked: The lights in the bed-pods were out, but I'm sure the staff would have seen to it if just someone would have told them. It's a bit cold at night, as most buildings in England and they should have better ventilation, it became really moist in the room in the morning.

Liked: Loved the hostel beds. They squeeze a lot into a room but do a better job of doing so than most other hostels. Breakfast was excellent. They have good facilities, with a kitchen and tv room. Not sure about wireless - I think you have to pay for that - but they have a computer room where you can access using their computers (not sure whether that's free or not, didn't use it).

Disliked: There are too few showers and toilets. The location is very good but I guess a bit difficult to get to with heavy luggage.
