A great location at a reasonable cost. This is not a standard hotel but has more of a hostel environment. The first floor rooms are very small with only basic necessities. The upper floor rooms are spacious. Unfortunately, inspite of advance booking, the good rooms were all booked and so we had to settle for the small one, where movements were restricted. More suitable for Indians travelling to UK on a budget.
The location is excellent and that is the reaason for my four start rating, Underground tube is short walking distance away and so is Madame Tussauds and Oxford Street. The surroundings of the YMCA is peaceful, green with a small park near the front. Food is inclusive, however, the service reminds one that it is a hostel....service with a frown. Food in most days was palatable and reminds of home.
Overall, value for money...great for Indians because of the food and environment...not recommended for others.
