I went here with my church, the rooms are tiny, the bathroom is tiny, the shower has low pressure and is very inconsistent, the mattresses were like pure hard plastic and the duvets were extremely thin, the food was mediocre and overpriced, staff was intimidating. Would not recommend. Off off.

I was quite happy staying here for 2 nights. The room was clean although small but it was good to have my own room and bathroom with a bunk bed. It's the cheapest deal I could find in London. The staff were mostly friendly although one guy had an attitude at one stage when I asked a question. The location is quite good as the area is nice and safe and a short walk to the station. No towels provided in the room though. Breakfast is ok and quite cheap. I would stay again if in London.

Thought it was brilliant here. Outside the city centre enough that it was very quiet. Ferry over to Canary Wharf and up and down the river from
there on the Thames Clipper, good bus links and overground 5 mins walk up the road. Shared areas clean and quiet. Suitable for the kids. No noise in the hostel. Great nights sleep. Helpful staff. Beer on tap tasted great. Breakfast was decent. Table football. Cheep as chips for London. Had an amazing 3 nights stay! Thanks for the hospitality.

Cubrió todas las necesidades que teníamos durante nuestra estancia. Habíamos visto varios hostales en la ciudad y todos dejaban mucho que desear. Sin embargo, este cumplió con todas nuestras expectativas. Reservamos una habitación privada, ya que éramos 6 personas y estaba genial, la limpieza era notable, los baños sencillos y también limpios, calefacción por todo el alojamiento, edredones cálidos… sin duda, un lugar agradable donde hospedarse.

La ubicación era perfecta con relación al centro de Londres, casi a 10/15 minutos en guagua o metro con perfectas conexiones.

El personal era muy profesional y cercano, destacamos especialmente a Manuel quien hablaba español y siempre estuvo a nuestra disposición con su mejor sonrisa.

Lo único negativo que podemos decir es que a la ducha le faltaba bastante presión y era algo incómodo ducharse de esta manera. Además, la conexión wifi en la última planta (donde nos hospedamos) era bastante baja. Debíamos desplazarnos a los pasillos para coger algo de conexión porque a la habitación no llegaba.

De resto, para nosotros ha sido una experiencia muy gratificante y estamos felices de haber pasado unos días en este alojamiento.

El lugar es muy agradable, los cuarto limpio, el personal muy atento, cuenta con cocina, refrigerador, comedor, desayuno, bar etc. El problema es que no te incluye toallas y puedes escuchar como abren y cierran todas las puertas de todo el edificio o a la gente que pasa riendo o platicando, si eres de sueño ligero este no es tu lugar

Was a great stay experience, even with family. The manager there was super nice and friendly, and so were the other staff too.

Disappointing visit to the YHA, water was barely warm and extremely low pressure for the first three days and two nights, despite pressing staff, it was hard work talking with them and we felt that they really didn't want to deal with it.

We were eventually told that it's because we were higher up in the building and that it was normal.

Slight improvement on the third day, but nothing significant. Not enjoyable at all. The tap remained barely warm.

Towels are extra, no bath mat, nor any hand towel for the bathroom, for a private ensuite room paying up to 130 a night, it would have made a big difference to have some basics which would have cost the hostel little to nothing.

The bathroom fan was so loud (literally think of an aeroplane level of noise, no exaggeration!) it would wake anyone up if you wanted the loo in the night.

If you are on the top of a bunk bed and are 6ft 1 or over, you can't lie flat as it isn't long enough.

Cleaners tried to come in whilst we were changing clothes even after we shouted no, they aren't supposed to during the stay, not sure what they were up to, I'd assume it was just a mistake but it was inappropriate.

Shower curtain mouldy and needs cutting back so that it goes inside the shower, whoever fitted it didn't have the common sense to realise that if it hangs outside the ledge to the floor, then water will pour all over the rest of the bathroom floor!

I might be wrong and happy to be corrected, but the luggage room didn't seem to have any CCTV for the belongings.

The lounge and communal areas downstairs are abysmal and not up to the standard of any hostel, an absolute dump.

Much higher standards at other hostels for similar prices, we made a mistake and I'd advise anyone reading this to look for a more central, better equipped hostel even if you're paying more.

Great place , Nice very resposive staff, specially Silvan(I guess my pronouncing is correct ) was superb. I dont know why people put Negative for such a perfect , really affordable place. I am coming back to stay again.....

My worst hostel experience to date:
Had to pay nearly 3 pounds for an extra towel.
Rooms were extremely hot and uncomfortable. Bedding is like a plastic material that just makes you sweat profusely. There were NO working electrical outlets at all in our room. The lock on the window was broken so it was always just perpetually open. The shower was small, and the water temperature was very inconsistent. The toilet wouldn’t flush properly or wouldn’t flush at all. And the walls are very thin, you can pretty much hear what the entire floor is doing. Did not enjoy my stay.
