The general atmosphere was great, lots of people to meet, there's a big pub downstairs where drinks are very cheap. My only complaint is the triple bunk beds and the amount of people going in and out of room ALL night. My bed was so uncomfortable I had pointy springs in my back. It's hard to get a good nights sleep when people just get up, turn light on, slam doors, at all hours of night. ALSO NO TOWEL PROVIDED. I had to dry myself off with toilet paper.

Really enjoyed the stay. Wish there were lockers in the room that are bigger so its able to fit a pack in, simple addition for a little peace of mind.

Somebody told me the wrong time for breakfast and I ended up missing it because of that. Not cool.

A comfortable hostel situated in a quiet environment. Good for people who want to escape from the hustle and bustle London centre. Breakfast is good. It will be the best if there is a kitchen.

This is a quieter hostel. It's really just a pub with rooms to let. There isn't really a common room to hang out and mingle with other backpackers since downstairs is also a working pub. This was, however, a great value. You may be in zone 2, but travel to central London is quite easy.

You should add a computer room for example at the first floor for your guests who couldn't bring their own...

It's a pity no where for one to sit and eat unless you buy food from the bar, you don't even have a place to warm anything you buy from outside everything else is ok

Loved the atmosphere, made great friends and loved the pub. Definitely need a pool table though... Staff were helpful. Breakfast was minimal but very needed. I'll be sure to stay there again and recommend it strongly.

Great little hostel. Great price with good facilities and very clean. I did feel the atmosphere was slightly lacking. It's definitely not a back-packers youth hostel I would say, purely because most of the people I met there during my stay were there for long period of time either for work or looking for work. Is a lovely pub though and is great if you're meeting up with friends in the area like I was as they can come to you. Very cheap over all as well with great food served in the bar.

Really nice place with friendly staff. Tube is just a two minute walk and it's zone 2 so it only takes 20 mins to central London. Great value for money.
