15 August 2009 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: I would give it a just in the limit pass grade (5/10). In general, it is a good place for short to very short term stays; very good location, showers and toilets are clean and tidy, and the beds are new. However, I would not recommend it for medium to long term stays; common room is tiny, very boring atmosphere, the kitchen, without shared tables, is to cock only, very difficult place to meet people, the staff was polite but not friendly.

Disliked: Customer left no negative feedback.

13 August 2009 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Excellent value for the money and great location, but do not expect much cleanliness or to meet many other backpackers. All the other people I met were immigrants who actually LIVED in the hostel because it was cheaper than paying London rent. Still, can't beat the price and location.

Disliked: Customer left no negative feedback.

Andres Camargo Bravo

10 August 2009

Liked: Good hostel over a pub, has a separate common room from the bar in case you do not want to consume anything there. Good showers and wooden beds, laundry can be done for a small fee. The only drawback for new travellers might be the long-termers. They usually are very friendly, but are installed in their own bed. They live there so if you are staying there you must be ready for that.

Disliked: Andres left no negative feedback.

Liked: Good hostel, the nice location make everything plus the kindness of the staff.Breakfast very basic (toasts, butter, jam, corn flakes) and not very well presented but you forget his when you just want to eat!!!Negative point: Bathroom horrible (small, inconvenient, not super clean) but you manage. The very good location made that I was however happy to stay there, because I was just sleeping there (leaving early am, back late pm to sleep)... and team very helpful too ;)
