My sister and I stayed two nights, my sister in a womens' dorm room, I in a mens'. We liked that the beds, room and bathrooms are kept very clean. We also enjoyed the inexpensive breakfast provided in the morning. The location of the hostel is convenient as it is located a 5 to 10 minute walk from King's Cross Station, and buses stop just outside the hostel front door. It is a half hour walk, however, to the British Museum and even a bit longer walk to the other points of interest in London.

Alex, United States of America

Nice staff, excelent bed with 2xUSB and 2x power jacks for each guest, nice breakfast, Internet worked all around the hostel

Lucas, Australia

The location was good which is closed to the metro and train station. Rooms with enough space, generally clean. Facilities like bathroom, lockers, plugs are good. The staff were very nice and nice to talk to.

Audrey, Hong Kong

Convenient location (near shops and transport), friendly staff, luggage storage facilities

Grant, Australia

The staff is very friendly and super helpful. The location is extremely convenient as well as great for leisure. Overall, a great experience.

Madison, United States of America

very friendly and helpful staff, comfortable beds and the plug socket on each bed and light was super useful.

Katherine, United Kingdom

Great staff, good location, very clean. Very nice hostel.

Kevan, United Kingdom

I stayed in a 16 bedded dorm for a night. From whatever time I spent at the place (10hours), I can say that the location is excellent (right next to kings cross), bathrooms were clean, room & bedsheets were tidy, lockers were provided. Each bed had its powerpoint & a tiny light which was extremely convenient. For 11 pounds/night in central London, I couldn't have asked for more anyway. Good for a shortstay/layover

Babita, India

It was my 3rd time here (4th if you consider Clink78) and won't be the last. Perfect location near King's Cross station, which is served by serveral metro lines and lots of buses. Rooms, shared toilets and showers and common areas were all clean. Breakfast is 2£ per day now, but you have toasts, butter, jam, fruit salad, cheese, yogurt and lots of drinks. Highly recommended.

1993maria, Italy

Very clean rooms and bathrooms. Staff was really friendly. Decent breakfast for such low prize. Location is also very convenient.

Rajkarn, United Kingdom

Great location!

눉Other people staying were quite noisy through the night, going round knocking on each door on the corridor at midnight. (But this is no fault of the hostel) We were staying on the third floor and there wasn't a female bathroom on this floor. Otherwise can't fault it!!
눇Great location literally a few minutes walk from Kings Cross station, really clean, staff really friendly. We had a private room as we had just travelled home from NZ. Room had tea and coffee facilities and a sink in room, towels included and comfortable bed. Breakfast was only £1 and a really great selection, kitchen facilities the cleanest I've seen in a hostel.
