The location is the best thing I appreciated. The receptionist gave me chance to change room because the assigned berth did not have lighting and electric socket. Free wifi Poor Facilities (2 tiny toilets often out of service, a baby sink for more than 50 people) Poor ordinary maintenance ( no lights in the toilets, no hot water in 3rd level shower) Crowded rooms

The hostel was clean and I noticed owners pay much attention to it. It's suitable for the travellers who prefer staying for 3-4 days. The sheets were clean and the staff was very nice. Good location.

I liked all, all the Hostel was perfect, the staff were pleasant and they resolved all my doubts, and all, because i had a small problem with the plug and they were very attent to give me a solution. The ubication of the hostel is perfect, only 10 or 15 min to Weistminster, and very close from the Lambeth North underground. The hostel was absolutly clean and is a very good place to meet people from different countries. I recommend this hostel, is very nice

Good temperature and ventilation. Free WiFi - but often slow, unreliable. Constantly running tv in the hall, no quiet room with table or couch. Almost full 12 bed mixed-sex room.

nothing really ... Bathrooms were not clean, toilet even worse, rooms are not too bad, but not quite good for the price. Public facilities are awful. I have never been in a hostel with such an unpleasant staff. It is quite far from the City and in a very bad area.

The cereal and Wi-Fi: The staff should know more they didn't really have the answers we were looking for. They work for tourists they shouldn't have to Google or call someone for a simple anwser.

The staff was very rude. Especially, the bald guy at reception. For some reason he thought that I'm Chinese, asked me something in Chinese and when I said that I'm not Chinese but from another country, he said "Oh, sh...t!". I felt that I'm being insulted. After this, he looked at me frowning showing that he didn't like me.

Nothing. They say London Eye 15 by walk but it is the other side of the Bridge and bridge is at least 25 minutes by walk :/ Even nearest station is not Waterloo :/ Think about it. If It would be 15 minutes by walk, Waterloo could be near. It was dirty a lot, futhermore ıt was expensive as a hostel and it is not close to westminster, London Eye, Westminster Abbey etc. But They wrote their website London Eye 15 minutes by walk.

The guy at the front desk was extremely helpful. The hotel is probably much better suited to the younger travelers. (I'm far too old to be queueing in the corridor for a shower in the morning!)

The location of the hostel is fairly good as it is a 5-10 min walk to Lambert North Underground Tube station. It makes travelling more easier. Night buses also services along Lambert North Road that allows you to travel back easily even at night. The 15-bed dorm is way too cram as some hostel stayers just leave their belongings everywhere on the floor, leaving no space for others to walk.

Hostel staff were sometimes nice . The rooms are super over crowded , crawaling over other peoples luggage to get to your bed. Nasty carpet is in the whole hostel .I saw some very unhygenic people walk around barefoot , not to mention the showers ,cramped ,over used,looks like not cleaned . people coming and going at all hours of the day/night . Ventalation was terible so cramped in the rooms and peoples feet and snoaring were deadly . I would never stay there again and would not reccomend it . London is so huge you could find a better place for the same price in a better part of town with more life .
