Everything and everybody was nice and perfect for us (two 21-year-old girls) :) i would absolutly recommend this hostel :) The breakfast was really good, there was as much coffee/tea/toast/jam/butter/cheese/ham as you wanted, also yogurt and breakfast flakes!! The stuff was very friendly and helpful, you could talk to them anytime. The location is great, a 4 minutes walk from... More

The good things... It was clean. Its about 10 mins walk from the station and about 3mins walk from Hyde Park in pleasant area of London. The common room area is cozy, and small with plenty of DVDs and books to kill a spare few hours if needed. Most rooms have their own bathrooms. Lockers in rooms at the bottom... More

We stayed twice so far in this hotel. Must say that we had bad experience in The Windmill in Acton and after one night we find this one. Everyone very helpful, nice receptionists we got what we asked for! The price is good for this great location! Top floor far right side of corridor from lift is really quiet. Which... More

my boyfriend and I stayed here for 4 nights in September and were a bit apprehensive about staying in a hostel. However, it turned out to be really great, our room (double suite) was nice and comfortable, with a tv, fridge, kettle, desk and nice decent sized bathroom. It was clean and we had a large window to open which... More

This was a nice and cheap hostel, you get a lot for a little money. The room we lived in had it`s own bathroom, so that was good as well! The only bad thing, the beds are a bit small if you are a tall person, but for a few nights thats just fine.

We had a double private room with ensuite, & it was great. Clean, had linen supplied, tv, close to tube & buses, great location. There was a lift too, albeit slow, but that helped with bags given we were on 3rd floor! Staff were helpful when asked, but generally disinterested & there wasn't much of a vibe to the place,...

This was the first hostel I have ever stayed at, and I thought it was ok, until I stayed in others that were far superior! The staff seem pretty disinterested, and ten pounds for a plastic room key seems pretty rough. I was in a four bed dorm, which was very poorly ventilated, the bathroom had no ventilation at all...

Reading all the nasty reviews for this hostel I was expecting the worst but somehow my experience was absolutely beautiful. I lived in the room for 4 people with en suite bathroom. The room is small but cute and tidy. The rooms are cleaned everyday. The first three days I was alone and then two guys separately got in. The... More

Location is pretty good, nice/safe area, right by Hyde Park and about a 3 minute walk to the nearest underground. However, this place is very uncomfortable, smelly, small and unfriendly. Lots of hidden costs - eg had to pay extra per night for a locker in the rooms, which was kinda compulsory seeing there was no space on the floor... More

I haven't been to many hostels, but I'll bet this one is much like the rest of them. A bit grimy, full of "exotic" smells, and tight sleeping arrangements. That said, it wasn't terrible, I mean you don't use a hostel for the comfort, you just need somewhere cheap to sleep it off. They had showers that put out consistent... More
