The Smart Russel Square Hostel is a good option for budgeted travel to London. The location is great, but it could be slightly cleaner. The mattresses are also very thin and being 6’ 3”, I was longer than the bed itself. Overall good location for a short stay in London!

Perfectly fine if you’re used to hostels. Like other reviews have said, the beds are small and the ensuite bathrooms are a tight fit. However the location more than makes up for the shortcomings. All the tourist sites and museums are easily accessible on foot or by public transit.

The staff member was a little sassy when we checked in. Maybe we were a bit tired but he told us that it was booked under a different name after I handed him my passport even though it was under my name. The facilities were very nice, kept clean, and always stocked with toilet paper and paper towels. The beds were also nice.
