Very cool hostel a few minutes walk from the heart of London, very friendly staff and overall good vibe. Very clean, good bedding, … Thank you
I’ve been there twice and will go back, it’s very well placed, clean and not very expensive. The beds are very comfortable, the rooms pleasant and the staff very friendly. Only regret no way to cook or store your own food but hey it is not the most important because there are shops and restaurants everywhere and you can always eat in the entrance hall. I recommend 100% !!
great hostel where you can make great meetings, well placed and ideal for small budgets.
We stayed with our 2 grandchildren. Everything went as planned. Room 4 corresponded to our expectations. The competent, jovial staff gave us the advice we expected. Roughly nothing wrong, on the contrary.
great hospitality, rooms and bathrooms are clean, comfortable beds.
Very clean hostel !! Superb room, showers and toilets are well maintained, nothing to complain about. the staff is there for us. Only negative point, the price of breakfast is too expensive ...
Good reception, enough cleanliness, Lounge bar very nice, good breakfast
I have just spent a few days and was very well received and accompanied throughout my stay. A bus stop is right in front. I really enjoyed being able to rest at night in the living room. Nice place
Dormitory for 6 people with shower and toilet clean and with the minimum comfort but practical. On the other hand, noise in the corridor throughout the night due to a group of children and young people visibly poorly supervised and despite our complaint at the reception. The living rooms much smaller in reality than in the photos and often full. While the wifi does not go into the rooms ..
The hostel is clean and the beds are comfortable. The curtains allow to have a little privacy which is nice. The weak points: few showers and a noisy area. Remember to take earplugs if you want to sleep. Good value for breakfast.
Very good hostel. Very clean. Nice staff and near the subway
Modern decoration, sober and practical Lack worn coat and towels Lift broken often
Nice hostel, well equipped. Breakfast room dej / bar nice enough Room with the necessary comfort and enough room for everyone
I came 4 years ago, with two classes of 10 year olds. I came back with my husband and my daughters and I have no regrets. Very good value for money, clean and pleasant. Happy to have found someone in the staff who spoke French. Too bad we have seen the last day you were eating at night.
rated youth hostel but rather hotel type: lack kitchen available: no towels.
Very good overall: quality of services and implementation
Recommendable hostel, for the reasons below.
Very good establishment
Superb hostel! I recommend
everything!! really nice backpackers!
Très bonne auberge !
I like the individual washrooms and the huge lockers under the beds. The curtains on each bed also gave you privacy and helped to block out the overhead light.
3rd time I went back to this hostel, no doubt one of best hostel in London. each best has your own curtain so you get more privacy compare to ordinary hostels.
I really enjoyed the design of the place, clean-ish, I think I would preferred if they mopped the floor in the dorms everyday. Showers and bathrooms were clean. It seems like a sketchy area, but I was not hassled. Easy access to the airport. Total time takes about an hour if you don't take the express train. Take Heathrow to Piccadilly Circus, change to the bakerloo line that is going towards elephant and castle. Just a 5 min walk to Elephant and Castle underground, there's also a bus stop right outside as well. Staff was friendly, for the most part!
Nice hostel in such a cool location.
Clean. Comfort.
Very nice location. Nice and helpful staff.
Friendly staff, very comfortable bed, clean hostel, nice common area
Was neat and Tidy, Secure as well.
The staff, the rooms.
safe, Area where its located
Nice, and clean.
Good location, only a few minutes walk from Elephant and Castle underground station and bus stops outside which go to most of the city. Hostel is really nice inside, very clean and trendy looking. Lots of space to chill out comfortably. Rooms were clean and quiet. Bathrooms were really clean and lots of space. Was given a voucher for a free drink when I arrived too!
Very helpfull and friendly staff. The bed got curtains, so if the light is on it didn't disturb you during your sleep. It is a very good location, 5 minutes walk from the underground station. There are many restaurants/snack bar's around the hostel.
Friendly staff, clean, large rooms and beds with curtains. Probably the best hostel I have stayed
The place is extremely nice for a hostel and is more of a mix of hostel/hotel. The only difference between this and a 4 star hotel are the 8 person rooms. The staff was helpful and friendly and they have a complementary breakfast and bar/lounge area downstairs. In the 8 person rooms, each bed has a curtain for privacy. It was very close to the metro, which can take you anywhere in London.
Recomendado sin duda
Very clean, great value for money, continental breakfast included in the price
