Big issue: No reasonable place to store your baggage - either had to pay for very small rental lockers which could only fit a small backpack or leave it in luggage storage, which was just an open room with no cloaking system. No locker in rooms or elsewhere - very insecure. Shower facilities were very poor and absolutely no atmosphere in the hostel. Hostel rooms were also rather dirty and not properly set up. Much better hostels in London for the same price - would certainly not go again.

Really great stay as a whole. Only "issue" was that everyone was taking showers at the same time, so the 3 shower stalls didn't feel like enough when you combine guys and girls in the same shower rooms. But that is a time specific issue.

Not bad for the price! Staff were friendly and helpful. I didn’t think the linen was completely clean, some odd stains on my pillowcase, maybe some of them need replacing? But atmosphere was friendly, good security. Was only there for a full night :)
