Liked: It's really, really cheap, rooms were cleaned every day, we got a clean set of towels daily, and the staff is quite friendly. The neighbourhood is not scary at all, people are normal and polite.

Disliked: Far away from the centre, windowless room, very thin walls, it's hard to get a good sleep without earpluggs

22 September 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: We like modern bathroom, clean towels every day and good connection to the centre of London

Disliked: We dislike missing rubber isolation under the window, because room was very cold and there was huge humidity, which cause mildew on the ceiling. second problem is droping water from the door of bathroom and wet carpet. Third was bad drainage in the washbasin. And the permanent re-code of entry card to room wasnt pleasant

Backpacking / gap year

03 August 2011

Liked: It was cheap. - But not considering how much you have to pay everyday to get into London proper.

Disliked: It was under construction and we had to walk through the construction zone to get to our room. The construction workers would smoke in the hallways so this place is horrible if you have anysort of breathing issues. We were put in a dingey room in the basement and everynight we heard constant fighting outside our window and sirens blarring. Also, our door did not shut all the way very easily-you had to really pull hard to get the latch to engage. The maid never shut our door properly and so every day when we got back our room was unlocked - thank goodness we took our valuables into the city with us everyday.

Liked: The bed was extremely comfortable for a hostel. Also, the door is open 24 hours. The private room was big enough. There are bus lines 100m from the front door and a train station 1km away.

Disliked: Although having 24hr access is a good thing, there is no check point for those entering. We were able to come and go throughout the building without anyone knowing we were there....if we can do that, so can burglars. The staff at the front desk was unreceptive and uninformative. They were unable to make eye contact when speaking with us and were usually trying to do other things while "helping" us. We asked for directions once and were given the wrong bus to take. Also, we were looking for information about an opera we were attending and they could not find the time on the internet because they were "too busy at the moment". The shower in our section of the hotel was broken and hot water was unavailable....slightly warm would be a better way to describe it. Also, the drain in the shower was plugged and the water overflowed onto the bathroom floor during showers.

Liked: It was cheap. That is the ONLY good thing about it.

Disliked: It was filthy, breakfast was a joke, it was located quite a distance from downtown, so you spent a lot of time daily on the bus to get back downtown.

Liked: The hotel was 20 minutes by bus from the Parlament. We didnt spent a lot time in the hotel, because we were in the city until late, the hotel was good for this. for the cheap price we had a clean room and a quiet place. the breakfast provided the cafe, and toast with jam, and butter. i didnt expect more for the price. i was happy with that.

Liked: The pice is really good. We just needed a place to sleep ant therefore peckham lodge is completely fine! We liked to take the bus to the city, even though it takes maybe 40 mins you can see the street, the shops, the people living there, in contrast to if you would take the train. Close to the hotel there are also really nice pubs and restaurants with cheap prices for London I would say.

Disliked: The rooms were small, but for me and my family it was ok. One toaster for a hotel of that size is for breakfast definetly to less(and except for cornflakes there is nothing else you can eat), but in the Lidl around the corner you can get what you need.

Liked: There was all necessary with economical price. The staff was friendly and bathroom clean. Breakfast was a bit one-sided but quite good. Location was easy to reach by train (about 15 min) or bus (20-50 min). This hostel is really good choice for those who wants to travel economically and don't need extra fancy accommondation, but ordinary place to stay.

Disliked: Small room, no extra space, traffic noise.
