Liked: Location is very good, close to center of London with subway just in front of the hostel. Price is among the best Only four beds by bedroom

Disliked: No storage, you have to keep everything in your bags. No key for the locker. Don't take any valuable belongings. Not really anything to do in the hostel, no shared rooms. Free wi-fi isn't always working

Liked: no mold

Disliked: When we arrived at this hostel (at 9.30 pm), the receptionist said to us that he had given our room away to some other people, so we had to share a 3 bedroom room with 4 people. They even said "we could take it or leave it".

12 October 2010

Liked: Relaxed environment.

Disliked: BUGS. Bugs in the bed. Fleas to be specific. They did get us out of the room after we reported them, but my boyfriend and I wasted so much of our time moving from hostel to hostel while they tried to clean up their bug issues, it really wasn't worth it.

Liked: Good location!

Disliked: The bed was really uncomfortable

03 September 2010

Liked: The location wasn't bad.

Disliked: The hostel was VERY dirty especially our room, linen in the bed and the toilets and showers. The twin bed we had for the first two nights was extremely uncomfortable and more like a single bed. Some of the showers were broken and there was a lot of mold in them. The showers were also unisex and there weren't any locks on the doors or space to change your clothes. The breakfast was do it yourself, including the dishes and not that good. Our TV didn't work and the wifi didn't work in the upper floors at all, which meant you had to leave your room to use your computer. I wouldn't stay in this hostel again, because there are plenty of better affordable alternatives in London.

26 August 2010 Gwendolyn would recommend this property

Liked: I loved the location, it was so easy to reach, and close to everything!!! It was a very friendly, open and family-like atmosphere. The value for money was definitely good, I like the fact that there was even a kitchen and fridge so we could bring food. The offered breakfast was also appreciated.

Disliked: The door was a little hard to find... Maybe soap should be provided in the rooms, as there is a sink. and the shower rooms were a bit messy, plus two of the four showers didn't work / had only cold water, and there was not much space to hang your towel close to your shower... so you had to walk around naked in the unisex bathroom...

19 July 2010 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Zentrale Lage, Nähe zur U-Bahn.

Disliked: Das gesamte Hostel war furchtbar dreckig (inklusive Zimmer, Flure, Duschen und sanitäre Anlagen, Küche, kleiner Hof für Barbecue), die Matratze kaum zu ertragen (durchgelegen, man merkte jede Feder), das Zimmer (double) winzig mit schäbigen Möbeln.

26 May 2010

Liked: This place is extremely bad and I will never stay here again. I would rather stay in a train station or internet bar. Staff is not even polite, not to mention nice or friendly. Shower room is extremely crappy that you cant even move, never think about hanging your tower in a clean place. The room and toilet are extremely dirty, it was like hell staying there for just 2 nights. There are plenty of choices in London somewhere else. Probably the worst choice i made in this trip.
