My stay at Clink261 went well. Good location for access to transport, and for food shops, comfortable beds, small shop in the hostel. The kitchen and the "social" corner are good. I liked that there was a room reserved for girls, but quite small.
Simple effective, inexpensive, pay attention to cleanliness.
I was woken up by very loud construction noise. Impossible to fall back asleep.

Cleanliness at appointment, however unpleasant staff and room really very small for 4. Cleaning was done every day! And very comfortable bedding.
All staff are very friendly and dedicated, the equipment is OK, friendly rooms OK. The only downside is a room of 6 really very narrow, even if the hostel is mostly a place to sleep obviously, it is still a little cramped.
Great location!
Staff Welcoming, very nice, smiling from the entrance to the kitchen. The information on the operation is well transmitted, the establishment is clean, calm. I would put a damper on the baggage deposit (super useful) that it is not well maintained and that users do not respect. Hostel ideally placed for your arrival in London.
First experience in hostel and everything went well. Unbeatable price / quality ratio for this location in London!
Great hostel with great staff. Plus a bonus: close to the St Pancras train station.
Clean, safe and close to Kings Cross station. I recommend this hostel.
petit etablissement d'une propreté exemplaire
very well
Welcoming, clean, well located, functional
very nice !
Warm welcome, clean, well placed, small, noisy at night
Pretty solid generally, decent price for London and Kings Cross is one of the best stations connections-wise. Not the most exciting area to live but also pretty safe so can't complain. Breakfast was great, particularly impressed with fresh orange juice given the watery concentrate stuff that usually gets dished out at hostels. Nice one!
Very cool !
Staff really friendly and helpful.Very clean throughout.Had few sockets per bed so had lots of sockets to charge everything up! plus reading light :)
Can do better
Excellent !
Ambiance très sympa !
Ideally close to Kings Cross (5min walk) and Euston (10/15min walk). Nice and clean, helpful staff, all you need from a hostel really!
Good bedrooms, individual lights, great kitchen, nice staff, very clean, great location!
The location was perfect - very close to many things
clean and comfortable, considering the amount of people in the hostel (i travelled during summer).
This could be one of the cheapest hostels in London, but it doesn't feel cheap. Sure the beds aren't supremely comfortable and the 18 bunk dorm is pretty squishy but it's very close to the action (5 mins walk from Kings Cross) and the breakfasts are excellent.
good location and room layout. easy to find and get around london from this location..
Personnel accueillant et auberge propre. Le séjour fut agréable.
location
Friendly staff...especially that spanish girl Good location near KingsCross, with a lot of cheaper restaurants around. Breakfast was good
Excellent location close to transport links, staff very friendly and helpful. Good breakfast included for the price.
It had a very spacious kitchen/hang out area/
I really liked the sense of community with the close proximity to other guests. I liked the basement with the food and sitting areas. I also liked that a bar was offered to meet other people.
Excellent price for a great location (about two minutes' walk from King's Cross Station). Great kitchen facilities. All beds have built-in charging outlets and lights. The hostel has a funky, young vibe. Also, the duvets were nice and thick.
-Hyv & auml; location. Traveling with the Oyster card (travel card) is cheaper in the center because the crossing of the zones will cost more if it gets longer. The net works as a star on a cell phone. From the hostel there was at 10 o'clock a guided tour of the city, which was very good. -Location was good. -Wifi connection works. -Walking tour was good.
Good beds and breakfast, friendly staff and nice atmosphere.
Je recommande !
Great location
Sympathique
Communal areas were all very spacious, kitchen facilities were fantastic. The beds were comfortable and private (even though the top bunks were a bit of a challenge to get into!)
Loved everything! staff is welcoming and knowledgeable, free breakfast is def a plus. toilets and shower always clean. Cool backpackers atmosphere
Convenient location near King's Cross. Good price for facilities available
I really enjoyed the people. The employees were overall very helpful and nice, and the other people staying in the hostel were friendly and it was easy to meet people. The hostel was kept clean and orderly, which I appreciated. The kitchen facilities were more than expected, and the location was fantastic since it was so close to King's Cross. Also appreciated the showers, which always had hot water.
I liked the beds, the bathroom, free breakfast, free wifi, how the hostel looked, the 24 hour reception and the location.
Great location, only 5 mins from kings cross at pancras for all trains/tube links, nearby tesco and fast food. Rooms were clean and not too small, with lockers underneath (bring own lock) and with own socket/reading light. Free breakfast was good, standard tea/coffee with cereal/toast, and bathrooms were clean. Friendly helpful staff.
Liked the staff, chilled out atmosphere and the fellow travellers.
Good staff, good breakfast, good location.
