Guest Reviews

• Belal (7/5): It was decent but not the best. - Beds are good, however needs better pillows as it was so flat. Cages are spacious but need proper space to pull it all out to be able to open it, I didn’t have enough space to do that. Shower cabinet is small, doesn’t have enough hangers and the shower curtains does get the clothes behind it get wet.
• Gabriel (7/5): For the price, it’s worth a night. - The woman at the reception does a wonderful job. Help with everything you need. Restrooms are very Small for the amount of people staying. The beds are not very comfortable.
• Tristan (7/5): Okay for the price - Staff Too many snorers
• Aurita (6/5): -
• Javier (10/5): - Amazing staff always ready to help Location in front of a tube station Activities from wednesday to Saturday 👌🏻
• Kazuki (9/5): 絶対楽しい - スタッフが親切で、イベントもあり、一人旅ならとても楽しい滞在ができる。普通のホテルにはない最高の体験が出来る。価格もダントツで安い上、清潔で安心感がある。 服を干すところとドライヤーがあると良かった。ただ、ロンドンでこの価格なら文句は言えない
• Marouane (7/5): -
• Iñaki (10/5): Alojamiento ideal - El ambiente fue genial durante toda la estadia, amplia cocina y comedor, cómoda sala de juegos en el sótano, la ubicacion si bien esta algo lejos del centro me encantó el barrio. Gime crack! Excelente todo! Gracias
• Maciej (9/5): - Bardzo miła obsługa, zaraz obok jest stacja metra i bardzo dobry pub. Wszystko jasne nie było żadnych komplikacji polecam każdemu
• Valéria (10/5): -
• quratulain (10/5): -
• Achraf (10/5): Definitely worth my while and will probably come back next year - It’s right next to the tube and everything was clean No fun places close
• Athira (7/5): -
• millot (9/5): -
• Gacheru (10/5): - Everything Everything
• Conor (5/5): Ok - Nice staff Pillows & covers hard as rock. Loud snoring constantly.
• Alexandre (10/5): Inesquecível dentro das possibilidades - Achei o lugar muito bem aconchegante e familiar, consegues muito bem fazer boas amizades assim como eu mesmo fiz. Se calhar o horário que fecham a cozinha é um bocado complicado porque há pessoas noturnas e eu por exemplo gostava de fazer coisas à noite dentro do hostel e não dava.
• Raquel (9/5): todo genial, repetiría - el precio y las instalaciones. estaba cerca de una estación de metro. el personal ha sido muy agradable y las instalaciones eran cómodas
• Ayoub (10/5): -
• Ayoub (9/5): -
• Cj (10/5): Loooove - Absolutely loved everyone there and it was such a friendly atmosphere. Quick shout out to Emma for making the best dinners in the world from Wednesday’s through to Saturdays. Cannot recommend enough. Just be mindful of going out on a weeknight as the Northern Line is your only public transport way home and it stops running after 10 Monday through Thursday.
• Nicola (7/5): -
• Vargas (1/5): incomoda - nada todo
• Lionel (5/5): Cheap but it comes with trade offs - Nice offers like free dinner and very nice, helpful staff. Pretty social at some nights (Wednesday to Saturday). Cheapest place I found in London (21 people dorm). Curtains. Filthy toilets, broken and very filthy showers, constantly dirty. Very smelly room (small windows), loud street, loud and instable beds, the whole bed was swinging with minor movements from the person below me. Some of the worst sleep I've ever experienced. Some weird and sometimes unhygienic/sketchy clientel.
• Luca (8/5): -
• Valentino (10/5): Best hostel in London - We have like all, the best hostel where I haved go
• Arkadiusz Bilinski (8/5): -
• Arora (10/5): -
• Mathias (9/5): - Really friendly staff and atmosphere, liked that there was a kitchen Bathroom facilities need renovating, they work and are regularly cleaned
• Hosni (10/5): -
• Lotte (9/5): Vriendelijk en fijn! - Personeel was erg vriendelijk, prima bedden, badkamers zijn ook schoon Enige onhandigheid is geen plankje of iets in de douche om spullen droog neer te zetten
• Sara (9/5): - Nelly is great and so are the other staff. Very friendly. It's clean and feels safe.
• Ramallo (10/5): Volvería y recomiendo el lugar. Está retirado del centro pero con buen transporte para llegar a todos lados. - La atención, la limpieza y la calidez de los que nos hospedan. Nada importante.
• Abibat (10/5): - I met a nice receptionist Hard to locate to entrance at first
• Ifeanyichukwu (9/5): - The people were nice and the staff were exceptional. Marit, Rose, Nelly and even AJ were quite helpful in navigating the environment. Good people
• Golam (9/5): -
• svoboda (8/5): Very good value for your money - The location can't be beat - right next to a northern line station by the end of the line with a supermarket and a pizza place nearby. The beds have a curtain, giving you a sense of privacy even when you're right next to other people. The value for the money I spent was very good. The building could be a bit better maintained - the ceilling above me didn't look too good.
• Rubén Maximiliano (5/5): -
• Heidi (7/5): Mostly good - The decor was cool, the staff do a pub crawl, half of the week the staff make dinner for everyone and it’s totally free that were supper tasty and awesome! It was really far from everything, like a 20 metro from the center. The showers were not very good tbh. Water temp was all over the place and no place to put your clothes.
• HEIDY LORENA (10/5): Escapada en solo - La cocina es grande. Los baños también son grandes. Tiene zona de juegos y mesa de billar. Me encantaron las actividades que hacen, gracias a su organizador. Me tocó una actividad de búsqueda de huevitos de pascua y dos salidas a fiesta Londinense. Las jaulas de las habitaciones hacen mucho ruido, pero entendible. Olvidé un pequeño suéter en mi cama arriba la del techo y desapareció, llegaba justo a hacer el aseo. No apareció en objetos perdidos.

• Thomas (10/5): -
• Matija (9/5): Amazing value for money! Will return. - Great location, apsolutely fenomenal staff, both fun and professional. There's free dinners some days, great opportunity to meet great people. Comfortable and clean beds, no bugs. Beds are very sturdy and they don't creak when others move. Bathrooms are ok. Toilet paper available. Men's bathroom toilet was busted. Shared kitchen smells, but is clean.
• Kamankesh (10/5): - This was most definitely the best hostel I have ever stayed, From the moment I walked in I was greeted with a big smile by LUCY _ who was amazing , all through my stay . The hostel has great facilities with fast wifi which let me keep in touch with my family, free pool table , TVs on 2 floors and free dinners every night and entertainment ,. The staff here are really good and help with anything you need , most nights we all went out to different bars and clubs in London which as a guest was free to enter . I hope to come back and thanks guys for the time ever.

• alberto (6/5): Aceptable - Cercanía a estacion , y precio Suciedad de los baños , repugnante todo meados
• Eduard (7/5): -
• Zuzanna (7/5): -
• Nicole Iman Tunde (1/5): BEWARE!!! - I had to bundle up my suitcase after seeing it was broken into - picture for reference During check out - I asked a member of staff if I can leave my belongings in their storage room (the person who checked me out) I was not told I would have to return the same day to collect my belongings and or need a tag for my belongings I had my belongings on hand and the luggage room was opened up by staff and my luggage kept Upon returning - my suitcase was broken into! I was told by a staff member Nelly (gaslighting me) with a smirk look on her face that I should have come to collect it the same day hence why my suitcase was broken into Essentially pushing/ shifting the blame on me! She even proceeded to laugh in my face throughout our conversation I then asked to see their policy regarding their reason to open my suitcase and she refused to show me - implying I had signed it Mind you, during my recent stay I DID NOT sign any terms and conditions and should I request to review them again, there should be NO REFUSAL! I was also told that my belongings were found and that I could not have been the one to put it in the storage room without a tag! Again, gaslighting me It is not my duty and or fault that when I requested to put my luggage in storage that I wasn’t thoroughly briefed on collection and or told I would need a tag for my bag Which in all would have avoided this happening in the first place - I’m actually so baffled and feel VIOLATED! The lack of regard, professionalism and ability to take accountability is beyond me Not to mention having her record our conversation which I will ensure is followed up on I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS HOSTEL AND WON’T BE RETURNING
• Lorrana (9/5): -

• Brogan (8/5): -
• Loveday (9/5): - The staff were very friendly and nice. I would like to commend Marit for being all smiley and helpful. The receptionists were very detailed in their explanations. They did a good job. The games were good and the other guests were very friendly too. Great place

• Yeosong (7/5): Provides exactly what you pay for - -Can't beat the price -I liked that every bed came with a curtain and some plug in outlets and light. There was also storage space at the bottom of the bed. -It is a 1-minute walk away from a tube station. -The staff were friendly. -The bed was okay but the pillow was extremely thin. Bring own pillow if possible. -They provide absolutely no toiletries in the bathroom - no towel, toothpaste, shampoo, absolutely nothing. I had pay 12 GBP for the padlock and the towel together. -The shower is very basic to say the least. The faucet only turns on for about 5 seconds after pressing the button so you have to keep pressing it to keep the water, and there didn't seem to be a way to adjust the temperature at all. In the tiny stall, you just had to be okay with whatever temperature the faucet blurted out with. Most of the time it was perfect, but sometimes the water turned cold all of a sudden and there was no room to escape in the stall. The water also barely went down the drain, causing a whole lot of water to accumulate and form into a "pool." -The kitchen is locked away early in the morning, so I couldn't retrieve my food and drinks before I checked out in the morning.
• Patrick (1/5): Worst experience ever! I prefered to sleep at the airport insteat in the hostel! - Location! I checked out one day earlier and slept at the airport because someone spit on the floor next to my bed! The bathroom was a mess! To small for so many beds and rooms! Worst experience ever!
• Ting yu (7/5): -
• Tran Bao Tram (10/5): The hostel exceeded my expectation. I will definitely choose this hostel if I go back to London - - excellent, friendly, helpful staffs. I talked to about 3 receptionists there, one of them is Nelly- and they are all super nice. - toilet and bathroom are clean. - beds are comfortable. There is a light and curtain for each bed. - kitchen and playing room are nice. - free dinner cooked by the staffs on Wed and Fri. - you can leave your luggage before checkin and after checkout. - Nothing.

• Indren (10/5): -
• Alex (7/5): -
• Paula (9/5): Primer hostal, buena experiencia - Hubo muchas cosas. Fue una experiencia muy positiva. Desde el conocer gente, las cortinas de las habitaciones, los baúles grandes (aunque también ruidosos, que no es muy agradable cuando todos duermen) hasta el barrio con paradas de metro y bus, y supermercados. Las duchas. Era un botón y a la tercera salía caliente, pero tenías que estar pulsando todo el rato porque se paraba y no podías acercarte la alcachofa, sino que era un círculo muy pequeño y alto. Aparte, como tal solo funciona una porque las otras no funciona el pestillo o no tienes lugar donde poner el gel.

• klaas (10/5): Safe, Social & Spotlessly Clean, A Perfect Stay in London - I had a really great experience at this hostel. The social dinners are such fun. it’s easy to meet people and feel included. You can really see that the team has heart and genuinely cares about the place and the community they create. The rooms, bathrooms, and common areas were always very clean and well maintained. The beds have curtains which is great, since you have more privacy. The location is also super convenient — close to the metro station and only about 15 minutes from the city center. As a woman traveling solo, I felt safe both inside the hostel and in the neighborhood, which made my stay even more comfortable. I would definitely recommend it and I will be back when I come to London again! Shoutout to the lovely team, especially Marit and Mappi. They made my stay wonderful and were always ready to help or answer any questions
