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.

Staff friendly welcoming
Handy bar snacks and we'll equipped kitchen if you want to make a meal
Great bar next door serving good food
Very friendly staff.
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.
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.
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.
