Liked: Very good free breakfast - plenty of hot toast with real butter and jam and choices of cereals, hot and cold drinks. Staff were hardworking, friendly and helpful. Bed was surprisingly very comfortable. Easy access to main tube lines and plenty of fast food restaurants and shops. The character of the hostel is really fun, colorful and warm. Safety lockers were provided and on the day of check-out they allowed us to store our luggage for free. Free wifi is a bonus and will sure recommend to everybody.

Liked: When I read the Reviews I thought the hotel is going to be worst. But when I stepped there everything was pleasant. The Best thing about this place is you have common kitchen, where you can cook yourself and all the cutlery and crockery is provided. They also provide healthy breakfast every morning which is included in your booking cost. Very friendly staff and they are ready to help you all the time. A BIG plus was we were allowed to store our luggage free for the day after checking out plus use the kitchen to have a coffee and a sit down whilst waiting to go to the Heathrow for our evening flight home A big thank you for this. I would definitely go back and would definitely recommend to my friends

Liked: Loved this hostel! It's right in Soho London so you can easily go from one place to the other. The staff was helpful in answering my questions and showing me where to go, very nice people! There is a kitchen so you can cook, a lounge to relax in with music, chairs, and internet . The bedrooms were super clean. Bathrooms and showers are spotless as well. Highly recommended!!

Disliked: The bathrooms were not very clean and looked like they had mold. The private bedroom was extremely small and the sheets were a little dirty.

Liked: It was extremely well located next to Earl's court subway station, which is part of both the district and picadilly line. The neighborhood is very exciting at night and there is plenty of places to eat around, besides having a huge Tesco nearby. It seems to be a very safe and noble area in London. Museums such as the Natural History and Science ones are walking distance. Staff are really friendly and supportive.

Disliked: There were no proper lockers in the room. They were all broken and keys didn't work. As I was concerned about my laptop, they offered to keep it at the safe, but actually when I arrived at night it was just on the shelf at the reception. Sometimes the reception is left unattended, btw. The kitchen facilities are extremely small and so are the bath and toilet.
