Great staff and a nice clean hostel. The chill out room was a little depressing but the bar made up for it. Very easy to get into London, two options on train types. I really enjoyed my stay.

It was a very good stay at the Hostel, Nice and Peaceful environment. The Hostel is adjacent to the Overground Railway Station which was quite good and saves time travelling to and from City and ofcourse the Staff were very much helpful. much appreciated. Vinay

There was never anyone at reception when you needed something so you had to go to the bar and bother one of those staff members. You could not adjust the temp of the water in the showers and it would go from ice cold to scalding hot back and forth. The room was okay not much room between beds and there was only one outlet behind a bunk so you didn't have access to it. The common room did not smell good and that was the only place that had outlets to use where you could sit. Far from city

Hi, Thankyou for your review, we really appreciate them and can learn a lot from them. Unfortunately when the reception is quiet the staff also work the bar/hostel, the staff are always happy to help guests and are never bothered by anyone as it is their job to assist guests! We do have a sign up saying that you can come to the bar should you need assistance and it is never any trouble. We are aware that the chill out room is a small space and we are trying our best to make this space nicer! As we have an old building, it is difficult to have everything the way you like but we try to make best use of the space we do have. We check the temperature of the water daily and make adjustments when necessary. We are lucky to be situated next to the train station and it takes only 10mins on the overground to the city. We are also lucky to have the DLR close by so we have access to all forms of transport into the city. Apologies if your stay was not what you had anticipated and we will discuss your review at our weekly meeting and see how we can improve on things. Regards St Christopher's Greenwich

iv stayed in alot of hostels, and this was by far one of my least favourite. it was rather expensive to get to and from the city centre, and expensive in general per night. in my room all the beds very jammed very close together, the showers were crappy and kept going cold (not what you want in an english winter) i wouldnt go back if i was in london

Friendly staff, clean room, and good price. The only problem was the shared toilets on the 2nd floor didn't flush properly.

The hostel was quite clean, the staff was really nice and helpful, location is great if you want to get to the O2 Arena, which was our case. Connection with the city centre is quite good too with the trains running every few minutes.

The bathrooms desperately need to be fixed. Toilets always overflowing and leaking on the floor and the showers cold and terrible pressure. Getting woken up without warning to have our dorm painted and not knowing if we'd have to sleep amongst paint fumes that night was also pretty average. And Greenwich sucks.

Hi, Thankyou for your comments, we really appreciate you taking the time to send us your thoughts. We have been working on the bathrooms and have hopefully resolved these issues now, the shower temperature was also changed so the showers are hot. We did have to do some painting in one of the dorm rooms although we did let the guests know beforehand, for some reason you were not informed and we apologies sincerely for this. We made arrangements to move all the guests into another room as we were aware this room would smelling of paint. We are really sorry that your stay was not as enjoyable as anticipated. If you would like to email us your comments on how best we could have improved your stay we will be happy to listen to them. Regards St Christopher's Greenwich
