Only disappointment was rudeness of other visitors, shouting, turning lights on at 2am, that sort of thing. Staff were great, informed, courteous, professional.

Good place for a London trip
Good location and quick check in. Small room with small bathroom but ok for the price. Room was clean. Bed was ok. Good for 1 night stay. Didn’t have a breakfast but have coffee and it was good ;) Place was busy and there was lots of people from around the world.

Wifi only in common area. Beds are not made, u have to make ur bed, yet it takes appearently 5 hours to "clean" ALL the rooms because u have to wait til exactly 3pm to check in. Reception staff has a dont care attitude. Plain rude.

I liked the lounge area and breakfast/lobby area. Staff is nice and helped me carry my luggage up the stairs, since the elevator doesn't work. It was however very inconvenient not having any outlets in the bedrooms. There should be charging areas in the rooms themselves, rather than the lounge, in the hall, or in the lobby area.

Deffo stay again
For a late booking, our stay was amazing. Staff we’re friendly and our room was fine for one night. We could have had more pillows (we didn’t ask as we knew it was a hostel and basic conditions). There was a bit of noise but again understanding as it’s a building with a lot of people. overall a wonderful stay and would do again

Given that it is a hostel (shared bathrooms, towels are rented, etc.), it has everything you need. The price is right, the opening hours are great, it is "family friendly" - no smoking/drinking, the location is convenient, the wifi works - but only in one of its (more than expected) public spaces, this is probably a helpful social "nudge". My early teen daughter and I stayed for a week and were happy with it.
