ClashBAR, located in the basement, features DJ nights, live music, a pool table and table football, giving guests the opportunity to meet fellow travelers.

Reception is open 24 hours a day and guests can access the building and their room using a personal key card. Staff are multi-lingual and knowledgeable about hostel happenings and city hot-spots.

Clink78 Hostel has shared and female-only dormitory-style accommodations and private rooms. Both shared and private bathrooms are available. All bunk beds have individual reading lights and small lockers for valuables. Towels are included in private rooms and available to others for a small fee.

The British Museum is a 20-minute walk, and the fashionable Islington district is a 15-minute walk away.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 8.3 for a two-person trip.
