For my first hostel experience, it was amazing. I met such lovely people.. it was like having a little family. Really clean, hot water, great breakfast and not too noisey. Would recommend to anyone and go back myself. Also is smaller and you got to know people better and run into them all the time.. I liked that!

This hostel is in a good location for Kings Cross train station, but is on a main road so was quite noisy. My dorm was probably one of the worst I've stayed in (& I've stayed in a LOT). 10 beds were packed in a small room. There were no lockers or space for bags, so even though the dorm was only half full or people there was stuff everywhere. It felt quite claustrophobic. Beds were creaky and uncomfortable. Staff were efficient, but not so friendly. Not sure I would stay here again.

I was the 5th victim of theft whilst staying in this hostel. The staff were unsympathetic and not helpful in informing others to be weary.

The hostel was having renovations while we stayed there. So I had to walk up 4 floors to use the bathroom/shower. That sucked ass. Ok value for money with a big kitchen which is great.

Great welcome, even at 11pm. Nice to have someone to say bye to when I left early at 5am too. I read that the beds were too short but found them absolutely fine. - Plenty of space considering the good cheap rate. Facilities clean and everything worked fine. I would recommend the hostel.

Very easy to reach from King's Cross. That was the best part. Second best part is that there were only 4 people in a 10-bed room. Very clean showers and toilets. Helpful staff, very nice reading and internet area around reception. It could be better if wireless internet was free and the rooms were warmer.
