Stayed in several hostels so far but this one was the most unpleasant experience of all. I could live with messed up room and lack of pillow and duvet upon my arrival, but the whiskey bottle and rubbish on top of my bed were inexcusable. Showers are claustrophobically small and the light sensor turns off the light in few minutes time, which leaves you showering in complete darkness. Bottom bed is laying literally on the floor To make things worse, 5 drunken roommates kept everybody up all night.

Great idea to have a hostel in a pub! But the stairs are realy crazy. I didn't dare bringing my bag up, left it in the luggage room. Rooms are small with no space for luggage but free wi-fi works in rooms too

Generally, it is ok and it is very close to the tube station. However, the room is too small. They put two three-layer bunk beds in a 6-people dorm and there are no space for the luggage.

The rooms and the toilets were not clean enough and the staff's organization was quite poor. Location was excellent very close to an underground station on a main line near the down town area. The bar on the ground floor was very good too and its 3 hr happy hour was quite nice.

The whole stay was excellent, except for the malfunctioning of the door key. It seems like there always has a problem with the system.

Nice Staff, comfy beds. Pizza from the bar is a bit dodgy, but thats the only real negative.

I use this hostel when I visit London to play poker at the nearby Victoria Casino and find it perfect. Nice clean and quiet rooms with perfect access to the amenities on Edgware Road, in particular the great Lebanese restaurants, nice bar downstairs for a drink, good wifi all over the hostel and perfect to jump onto the tube to visit anywhere in London as its right next door to Edgeware Road tube station which serves three lines. Highly recommend this hostel

I only stayed here one night before catching a plane. It was clean and the staff were good. The triple bunk beds might be a problem for some though.

I liked the location of the hostel-Paddington is a central district in London and I was able to walk in 10 minutes to Hyde Park or Oxford Street. There was a supermarket nearby, which was very convenient, and an Internet cafe. The bedsheets were clean, which isn't always the case in other hostels. My roommates were quiet and I could sleep during the night, even though downstairs there is a pub. The staff was nice and helpful and a standard breakfast was included in the prize of the acommodation.
