Traveller's reviews and ratings
good home, quite clean in all... the clean sheets... very correct House. two showers and a toilet for a floor of 4 x 15 beds + 1 Room 3 is a little fair! Breakfast nice, to recommend...
By jessy | The 05-04-2012
Extremely disappointed!
Personal, not frankly welcoming...
Tiny rooms, comparable to a chicken cage!
Hygiene is very minimal!
We do to there feel absolutely not safe.
From my point of view, I strongly discourages this hostel!
By Lisa | The 04-03-2012
It was okay... wont be returning to it on future trips...
By Julia | The 14-10-2011
This Hostel, point by point: Kitchen: 1 spoon, 1 plate, 1 fork, 1 saucepan, 1....
If you are lucky, you are the one in the hostel. In the contrary case, good luck to use the kitchen...
Breakfast: cornflakes with milk, bread and jam.
Bedroom: I was in the bedroom of 12 person. Around 15 square meter per person 12... The air is satured and the hygiene isn't here... Impossible to sleep. Moreover if you have others next to you who laugh at 3.am at the center of the room. Light all on...
Common room: Just 2 couch to watch the TV... I repeat my previous commentary: "If you are lucky, you are the one in the hostel."...
The table to eat or play card or... are very dirty. And I think It is not a good place to meet people or anything...
Place: Not close of anything. Around 20 minutes on foot to see the London Eye or Big Ben... The underground is at 15 minutes on foot... Very "" nice"" when It rains...
Staff: Not friendly at all...
Conclusion: I don't encourages you to stay at this place... A lot of Hostel are available at London and if you want have a cool rest, then, don't stay at this place.

Puntos positivos:-localización - precio Puntos negativos:-las rooms alejados - número de personas por habitación y baño

Firstly, the name of the hostel is quite misleading as it is anything but 'close' to the London eye, on my way to the London Eye there were at least 2 other backpacking places which were a lot closer. Also the showers and toilets were revolting, and there are definitely not enough on each floor for the amount of people which stay in the rooms.
The room smelt awful and unclean. The staff at the front desk seemed happy to help out, although at the price they charge you would expect something! I dont think i will be returning in the near future.

very very disappointed!
We have had only 2 nights reserved 4!
they ask us £ 50 per night by people to sleep over two nights. At this price the we found a 3 *...
The staff is not worthy of a hostel: they speaks English only, are not efforts to understand or to speak clearly! More do not rely on them for you help while they come to cancel your reservation. they made us pay £ 2 /h for the internet so that we can relocate us their fault!
rooms: 25 m²: 15 beds! rather clean with a European decision-making and English making bed. However 2 showers and 2 toilets for 1 floor is 60 people accessibility: step very far from a Metro, not very far (Metro) of the centre but not at all in an interesting neighbourhood.
I would strongly advise against this hostel will you may be losing half of your vacation. In which it has no atmosphere or you likely that very may view the permanent DIN... it was the last Inn have of the place and I understand why!
Go to camdem town is more alive! Hostel cannot be worse.
By Guillaume | The 25-07-2011
The hostel is very well located, very close to the Thames, big ben and london eye... 10 Min walk there is. The hostel is very clean, very secure and really cheap.
Negative points: - portable bug as soon as there are 5 people connected top - staff with the computer wifi is really not at all pleasant, this is limit if it bothers when talking about them - no collective activity is proposed to create exchanges between people so often each remains in its corner - flow showers are really poor!
By Helene | The 05-07-2011
I actually like the hostel and found it reasonably priced although a bit out of the way it was still accessable to catch the tube and be within minutes of Westminster Abby and the Big Ben. The place was clean although slightly crowded with 3 beds to a bunk and 15 people in one room. Would recommend for value of money but would book ahead to get the best deal in price.
By Seza | The 05-07-2011
I chose a House of 15 for a budget issue. The House must be maximum 20 m square therefore, indeed we are really close with each other. Question shower, the water flow is actually not very strong and there is not enough, but it adapts rising earlier. Household is done twice a day at least, but in view of the world that circulates it is never very clean. Rooms for the security code. The staff is friendly. The hostel is very well located. good price/quality ratio.
By Lali | The 30-04-2011
good beds, good breakfast and staff sympa.bonne location but not possiblilites of washing clothes...is no window in the rooms of 6 beds and no place for the bag. not enough showers or toilets, no hot water the last day.
By Manon | The 18-02-2011
This hostel was great. very comfortable both showers and beds.
However I think that there should be more than two showers in one floor and definetly more than one toilet.
But on the whole it was a great experience.
Thanks a lot :)
