I stayed here with a friend in a private room, so I don't know anything about the dorms. This is not one of the cheapest hostels in London, but I think it is worth the money. The location is nice, and not too far from a tube station. The beds were regular bunk beds in good conditions, and the staff... More

is the first time I ever stayed in a hostel and I was not dissapointed, good service, clean all up to my expectations and value for money, as is really hard to find anything cheap in central london this was a really good choice to spend a night there!

Stayed here with 2 friends for a few days the weekend before Christmas, we had a private 3 bedroom. The room was v small but if you're in London you're there to go out and see the sights, not to spend time in your room! Suited us fine, the hostel staff were friendly and there is free toast and cereals... More

As in the title - conditions are proportional to price. There are few rooms in a hostel. Each can entertain about 14 people, so it's quite crowded. There're no curtains at the beds. The room was quite clean, but it depends on people, who you share the room with. There are european and UK-type sockets avaible in each bed plus... More

This place is a typical hostel setup. They have about 10 rooms each with approximately 14 beds in it. When I went my friend and I were in the same room but our beds were very separate from each other. Cons: check in isn't until 4pm and isn't really flexible. Pros: "breakfast" is free (toast or cereal), free wifi or... More

No personal space. No where to put your stuff, have to fight for a power outlet, have to wait for lockers, showers are aggravating to use not to mention not clean. Near the War museum though and near the lamberth north tube station as well as Waterloo rail. Don't plane on sleeping your first few nights. Oh and if your... More

Booked in here because we were desperate as every other London hotel was booked solid. This is very very basic hostel accomodation -- £100 a night for a very small room with a bunk bed and no sink is a bit over the top. Shared toilet and shower (join the queue in the morning for 1 hour). Really only suitable... More

Recently stayed here in June....Can't say it was too bad, but it was not good. The rooms are clean, and the beds are fairly comfy - if you are on the top bunk, but the bunks are triple bunks, and packed into quite small rooms. Ours was a 12 dorm room, that other hostels would normally put like 8 MAX.... More
