Was a very odd stay. The staff were not paying attention and there was also a lack of cleanliness in the public areas especially the bathrooms and showers. Rooms were also incredibly crammed and over heated!

The service provided by the staffs was very good but the comfort of the room was very poor, there was a window in the middle of the bed, that window was broken and couldn't be closed so during the night I have been caught by wind and noise.

Had to pay to use the kitchen which is stupid?!?! Like ten pounds to use the kitchen facilities, also every time you open your locker it’s five pounds. Oh you left something in your bag? Cute, pay 5 pounds to get it out.

Did the job for one night stay with friends, one issue was that in the communal bathrooms the signage wasn’t clearly in show meaning that men were going into the women’s bathroom and shower and women were going into the men’s,made me feel a little unsafe and uncomfortable but other than that the staff were amazing and it did the job for what we needed it for. :))

This is the worst accomadation,I have. We book a private room, and private bathroom. Booking this private bathroom, but booking private bathroom doesnt make sense. There is no towel, no cleaning stuff, nothing. Room is dirty and disgusting. Just waste of your money.

A very large bright and breezy hostel. Focused happy and helpful staff. The building is a conversion not purpose built but you get everything you need. A good comfortable bed. Clean bedding. The third floor was a building site. A good place to hostel, near to the city. I walked to the river in 40 mins though buses were running at 5am .

When arriving at this hostel with my daughter we felt very unsafe in the lobby and community area. Our room was several floors up - there were people loitering in corridors and security patrolling. Our room felt like a prison cell - very small, it smelt and contained a rickety bunk bed that had a very thin mattress that would have offered no comfort. We decided to leave and found another place to stay. When we checked out we were offered another room but we felt too unsafe to stay. The hostel would not refund our money.

We booked a room with a bathroom, upon arrival I told reception that there was no light in the bathroom and they said yes, we'll see. When I arrived at night there was no light in the bathroom and at reception they told me, there's no one around now to check on that, the hostel is a dirty mess, all the rubbish on the ceilings, if you want towels you have to pay £5, they gave me a room on the fourth floor without an elevator, I understand it's a hostel but at almost £80 for a room with a bathroom in these conditions, and super far from everything, an experience that I don't recommend anyone go through.

It's a hostel. Going into that is important to remember. I'm not comparing to a hotel level service. The good: the staff all seemed pleasant and helpful even when they couldn't give me what was promised. The building is beautiful and common areas are decorated very cute. Breakfast smelled good though we woke too later for it. There's outdoor space and a park next door which is rare for London. Once you get through the gate there's a pretty safe feeling. It's walkable from the tower bridge and plenty of public transport options. Now, the bad. The room was full of black specks on the clean white bed upon arrival which seemed to duplicate no matter what we did. Turns out the window was rusted away at the bottom of the window sill, which would explain the constant draft. The specks appeared to be from a mix of rust and bird excrement and feathers. We came in April, which is still rather cold some days and the radiator did nothing, so my guess is the boiler was turned off already. The deadbolt didn't prevent the door from being accessed from the outside. They charged me for towel rental before checking that they didn't have enough towels to give me. I don't know how many issues could have been fixed if we had asked for another room or more assistance. We ended up only staying 1.5 days & checking out and moving to another hotel. This morning (my original checkout day), I received a notice to checkout while aboard my plane. Remains to be seen if I'm actually checked out or not.

Eu preferia dormir na rua se tivesse que ficar nesse lugar horroroso novamente. Pedi quarto so pra mim e minha neta com banheiro. Me deram um buraco com um banheiro que nem conseguia me mexer. Nao tiraram o lixo nenhum dos 3 dias que fiquei nesse buraco. Eu com malas e nao tinha elevador e o buraco era no terceiro ou quarto andar, tive uma torção em cada joelho que pensei que teria que operar de tanto que doia, quando desci as escadas com a mala pra ir embora. Na França tive que comprar joelheiras e anti-inflamatórios pra poder seguir a viagem. O local a noite tem usuários de drogas e o predio e tudo dentro é muito velho...se tivesse pago apenas uma moeda, ainda assim teria sido caro. O nome deveria ser REST IN PEACE

可能因為給青年人住，價格也比較便宜房間空間小到行李沒地方可以全開著放，除非放床底下（就真的像學生宿舍一樣）……房間是雙層鐵床，床墊很薄又硬！睡覺時連翻身都會上下遙動互相影響！

O local tem tudo para ser nota 19 pelo acesso aos pontos turístico e comodidade de transporte, mas é cheio de regras que não são cumpridas pelos hóspedes, banheiros sem funcionar, quartos sem armários, limpeza precária. Recepção que oscila muito. Alguns funcionários super legais e agradáveis, outros super grossos. No geral teria que mudar muita coisa para ser considerado um hostel. A única coisa que gostei foi a vista do meu quarto que enviarei a foto.

Ficamos em um quarto privativo, ele era bem pequeno, mas atendeu bem. Faziam limpeza do chão todo dia, o que foi ótimo. Só sentimos falta de mais ganchos ou prateleiras para pendurar nossas coisas. As tomadas eram localizadas em pontos muito altos do quarto, faltando praticidade. Por fim, o elevador não estava funcionando, tivemos que subir muitas escadas diariamente. Pelo lado bom, gostamos da localização (dá para ir a pé para alguns principais pontos de Londres e tem uma parada de ônibus exatamente em frente). A equipe também é prestativa, um dia experimentamos o tradicional English Breakfast preparado por eles e adoramos.
