Candy, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Solo Travel. I’d recommend

No issues with the place it self. Even though I was in a dorm of 4 the person above me woke me up in the middle of the night due to noise. I had to be up really early which was frustrating. I didn’t get much sleep. But the place is okay. Good for the price. One thing I found good is the lockers are free inside the rooms and quite big. I felt that my luggage and belongings were safe.
Sian, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The price was great. It was very convenient for our event at the Tower of London. The breakfast was very good value for money. All round an excellent overnight stay.
Sandra, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The vibe was great! Lots of people from all over the world, cool bar, many events. The place was super clean and modern. Rooms and amenities were comfortable and felt safe. Would totally recommend and go again on my next visit to London. It’s not so close from downtown but easy to get on public transport. Staff was very kind.

Great property Awful beds :(

Beds are AWFUL! It’s a 4 inch thick light weight foam pad on top of a metal slat bed frame. I couldn’t sleep all night even though u was trashed from going out. My back was ruined the next day. Besides the bed the property was spectacular. The bar is great for meeting people and the facilities are clean.
Tripp, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice place. Loved locker in the room, which I hadn’t read in other reviews, so wasn’t expecting. Shower and toilet in room is convenient. Overall, pretty nice place.
Joseph, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

You get what you pay for. Excellent service and staff at front desk . Clean rooms but windows usually difficult to shut and don’t keep all noise out. There will (naturally) be noise until around 10pm inside the hostel. Perfect for a cheap night and early start stay in central London.
Sophia, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I only had a short stay but the staff were really helpful and bedroom facilities were really good. Would stay again :)
Maia, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Female solo traveler

It was my first time staying in a hostel and this was such an amazing stay! The rooms were clean and we had housekeeping everyday! This will be my go to spot every time I stay in London! It’s a fairly quiet are (minus your usually cars passing by) and the fellow residents are respectful when it comes to quiet time. There is a buffet for breakfast and it was quite enjoyable!
Marissa, 4-night trip

It was wonderful, the very polite reception, everything was perfect. Good location, good breakfast. I recommend it to everyone
Patricia, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

My first time staying at a Hostel. So i was skeptic. So I decided to book the 'higher end' 4 bed and still save big $ over a london hotel. I lucked out with great roomies. I was so impressed with the common areas. I didnt cook, but if i go back i will. Some of the dishes were so creative....looked and smelled amazing. Love the bar area too. Taking advantage of the optional and inexpensive locker storage was a huge help. I had a late flight and had time to sight see without having to lug the extras. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
Barbara, 3-night trip
