Liked: Nothing.

Disliked: It was really dirty and it has a horrible smell in the rooms and in the kitchen. There is a lot of people living in the hostel so it is difficult to really clean it up. It is far form the center and they made us change roomms three times during our stay. Would not recomend it.

Liked: The staff were very cool, and so was the manager. You could have fun 24/7, and make a lot of new friends. Pool tables, 4 huge screens for watching films/tv, fairly cheap drinks - you don't have to go out in the evening at all, to have fun.

Disliked: There was a choice of getting a cold because the windows were open, or getting used to the smell of other people's shoes. I got a cold, as slept right by the window. Idea: change the position and sleep with your feet facing the window instead. Not very credit card friendly - must have cash at all times, unless you pay at least £10. Charging 60p for using the credit card.

Liked: 15-20min walk to london bridge station so location was actually better than it looks on the map. I was worried about the three tier bunks but they were actually really good and noise and wobble free from people above!! Very satisfied with this hostel. Staff were friendly but did seem a bit short fused with annoying people, which we can all understand of course.

Disliked: Whats to dislike! Good location for walking if you are not lazy, good free breakfast, free wifi, clean bathrooms and comfortable beds! Who wants more in a hostel??

Liked: They had laptops for use, but only three of them. the bathrooms were decently clean, and the kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, dishes. The location was good, very close to a tube stop.

Disliked: Three bunks is too many to stack on each other! the rooms were very crowded, no room for your things, and the lockers were too small for our backpacks. It was annoying to have a movie (with the volume very loud) constantly playing in the common room. No body talked to each other.

Liked: I stayed in a 15 bed female dorm and liked i very much, so it didn't smell bad like I expected it to by reading previous comments about the hostel. I liked the reading light and curtains for privacy. The bed was comfy and overall the place was decent value for money with plenty of english pub atmosphere - not a clinical, sterile hostel too big to make friends in..

Disliked: I felt slightly unsafe by myself walking to and from the tub station late at night - i wouldn't recommend doing it alone - male or female.
