This was my first ever hostel experience and it was great. The staff were super kind, friendly, and helpful. I stayed in a 4-bed mixed dorm and the room was clean, the bed was comfortable, it had a curtain and lockers which was important for me. Overall it was a great and safe experience and I highly recommend this place!

Would stay again! I think breakfast is a little expensive for what you get but everything was amazing. You get a small fan in your bed so that is amazing

Great hostel option. Nice to have bar on site as well as the breakfast and kitchen. Easy location for walking to the Tube station. It proved to be an economical option for our family of six (all adults).

10/10 Exceptional

This place was much nicer than I expected for a hostel! I understand why it was so popular and busy while I visited. Staff we nice and helpful when I needed them. I stayed in a 6-person female dorm for two nights and was not bothered or had any complications with the people I was sharing with. The room is spacious, shower water was pretty warm, good amount of storage for my small luggage, and the bed was comfy as well. Extra: I did not eat breakfast so no input there. I visited the bar one night and it was a nice spot. It reminded me of an activity or study room at uni. The hostel overall was not in a bad spot in London, either. From what I noticed at least. The underground was a 10-minute walk away. I honestly have no complaints.

Great location, close to station. Rooms a little warm but visited during a heatwave. Windows only opened a little. Amazing kitchen area and hangout area. I wish there were more social events. Pub crawl, walking tour, trivia or karaoke. A lot of amenities but pretty quiet. Super clean! Beautiful common areas. Helpful staff!!!!
