The reception was not friendly at all, the hostel did not mention the deposit before our arrival, the bathrooms are not very clean, and you have no door in the shower but a simple curtain... It's ok if you plan to stay one night, but one night only. Finally, it's expensive for what it is. Such a shame for a hostel so close to Hyde Park and in a very nice area!

The Shower rooms was not clean and hygienic enough, I stood there for more than ten minutes before i decided to take a shower, but the shower was hot and nice. Other than that i had a peaceful rest inside the room and the bed lines was clean.

Nothing was stolen though.Netherless bad aftertaste remains.Superb location.Staff helpful

Do not stay here! My friend and I booked this hostel for four nights. They were very unorganized, and had no idea who was actually staying in the hostel. When we went to our room, they had to ask the other visitors who was staying in which bed. Once they decided that no one was in a bed, they stripped it of its used sheets, handed us our sheets, and said that it was now clean. This happened two nights in a row, and after the second night we just walked out, and booked with another hotel. Awful.

It was the most horrifying experience. It looked like a home for drug addicts. Everyone was eyeing our luggage and wondering why we were staying at the hostel. My friend and I walked into our room and were on the verge of tears. We picked up and left 5 minutes later. No money back, but boy did I feel ten times safer when I was gone. DON'T BOOK THIS HOSTEL.

Unfriendly staff and barely half-decent facilities. Not much of a backpacking atmosphere...

We in the hostel 4 nights it was a nightmare to stay there! No-friendly staff, the facilities were dirty, unhealthy, ramshackle: - Showers and toilet usually flooded/out of order, shower very small, don't even have space to put our stuff. - Dormitories crowded (18 per room...) with only strange people. The room looked like in jail ! JA small window for 18 people: smells really bad - Kitchen : dirty, our food have been stolen You've to pay for everything: WIFI, Lockers, luggage room.

For a place to sleep it was ok, wouldn't recommend it for more than 1 or 2 nights, there were no lockers in the room, and the shared toilet was not very clean, it was probably a little expensive considering the facilites however the location was excellent. overall it was reasonable
