Location is very good, just one two stop from Victoria. Dorm is very clean. Free drink and bar provides rest after a day's traveling.

Hi. I spent there three days, both in private room and in dormitory. The private room is very nice with a great view on Thames river. The dormitories are at the top floor, rooms are ok, better ventilation would be useful. I suggest requesting a bed by the window. The crew is very nice and friendly. Downstairs is a pub and evenings there are fun. Note that the reception is closed after midnight and from the location you need at least 15 minutes to get to the actual center.

Very nice hostel: Located in central London, about 10 minutes walking distance to the nearest tube station, breakfast included, clean, quiet. No complaints here!

Great location. You won't get more central than this hostel. 5-10 minute walk to Pimlico tube station and from there you can get anywhere.

I found Travel Joy by quite a miracle, just along the Thames of London. I had to sort out some urgent visa stuff at the embassy, which is just near Travel Joy, and the atmosphere, staff and other people there really calmed me down. The value was better than any hostel I afterwards in South East Asia.

the hotel man shows his hospitality,and he is really Italian that I couldnt understand his English quite well.But overall there's a lot of nice things out of our expectation such as the gift of a bottle of wine,the clean toilet,the elevator:) One thing pity is that there's no kitchen. Otherwise it is really nice for this price.

A good hostel. Not central, but about a 20 minute walk from Westminster. Great view of the Battersea Power Station, great for Pink Floyd fans. The breakfast was average- toast, some hardboiled eggs and yogurt. Good fish and chips nearby, but I didn't try their in house restaurant. One letdown was the pub- they didn't serve any real ales, the ambience wasn't exceptional, and the cost, while not extreme, wasn't particularly good (3 pounds/pint from 6-7pm, 3.80 otherwise). Friendly staff.

Not much to say really. I've stayed here a few times before. Staff are friendly, and the hostel is better than ever in general. One thing though, please do not allow your dog to roam free in the lounge, as I personally do not appreciate dogs.

All staff working very hard to make our stay a good one. Beds very comfortable. Breakfast & free drinks much appreciated. The washbasins in room no.4 so tiny they're difficult to use. More shelves & clothes rail for clothes storage would be helpful. 24hour bus service nxt to hostel great. Would be happy to stay again.
