The location was pretty nice. We got there really late and people wanted to make sure if they could do anything for us. Our room was average but really nice. They have a luggage room which helped us a lot in our last day of stay. We left the luggage there about 7AM and picked up at 6PM. No complaints about it!

The room and shared toilets were clean. The hostel has a good location, not very far from the city center. The surroundings are quiet and nice. Very good english breakfast!!

I think this is the best cheap place to stay in London when it comes to value for money. It is nothing special, usual dorm, but it is nicelly located, city center is easily accessible, nice breakfast is included, you just have to share bathroom (but it is quite ok). What I did not like was leaving by bag in luggage room on my own risk, that is a bit unprofessional, you guys should really make sure this service is secure. But in the end, I would come again, it is ok and cheap!

Friendly and helpful staff, all OK. Walls are a bit thin and the silence rule is not always followed. Breakfast good!

This is the perfect hostel for older travellers. I will definitely stay here in the future and have recommended it to friends. The only issue is that free WiFi is only available in the cafeteria and drops once in a while.

This hostel is a dormitory and there are students in the building. Single room is okay but toilets were bit far and they put me in the boys section... i had to go through doors and pass elevator hall to get to girls toilet.....but i have to say the breakfast was great!

Very good location - near tube station also bus stop in front of it! The room is very clean and surprisingly they provide towel and soap! Very helpful for backpackers. However, the breakfast for guest is a little expensive. (GBP 6.5)

The best thing about this hostel was the amazing reception task. There were two very informative, friendly young women at the desk when we arrived and they helped us find places to eat, drink and enjoy London. Really lovely staff. Thanks!

rooms are a bit small, but for the price you get more than you would in other hosels (eg a twin room for the price of a dorm bed elsewhere)

Very basic but perfectly adequate room - own sink as well as shared bathroom, clean towels provided, etc. Very quiet, which was good. Maybe a bit expensive considering breakfast additional at £6.00. No other complaints tho - would stay again if I needed a room for the night in Kings Cross.

Location was excellent especially for the price.

This was student accommodation seemingly let out for use by travellers whilst the residents are not around over the holiday periods. Obviously, being such accommodation, don't expect much in the way of quality or amenities but, for £40, for a night in the centre of London for 2 people, you really can't complain.
