Great hostel! Close to a metro station, but it is out of downtown London. Very clean bathrooms and showers. The large dorms can get busy and noisy in the morning, but that's to be expected. Great set up for dorm beds, makes it feel very private. Breakfast was decent, toast, cereal, coffee, tea, croissants, juices. Staff were friendly and helpful.

It is a busy noisy party hostel, especially on weekends. The staff always seemed annoyed when asked any questions, they were not very friendly. The bathrooms and showers could have been cleaner. It is in a great location for London. And the kitchen facilities were awesome.

Perfect location! Less then a ten minute walk from the train station and right in the downtown area walking distance to all the sights. Bathroom and bedroom were kept wonderfully clean! There is a kettle in the room for tea or coffee which was really nice to have. Breakfasts were good! Only thing is I like having a garbage can in the room, but there is one in the bathroom you can use. The cats are wonderfully friendly and well behaved. The room is very comfortable and homey.

Only having access to two (sometimes one) bathroom was usually really inconvenient. In the mornings people would take long showers and there was no WC for those just wanting to use the toilet. The location is pretty far for from the main sights, it's about a 20 minute walk to get into the centre. As its a B&B you would assume there would be some kind of breakfast. Very nice rooms, but the bathrooms were always a problem. Not sure if I would go back.

Dear Liam, thank you for taking time to rate us. l'm sorry you were not satisfied with out bathrooms. Using a shared bathroom means that if someone is enjoying his/her shower in both bathrooms, is necessary to wait for a while..max 7'. It seems quite normal as far as sharing a bathroom is concerned so l'm afraid I cannot modify that. I just want to make a point on our very clean bathrooms though! :) Our breakfast is italian so, fruit juice, nastrina , espresso, cappuccino or chocolate from the coffee machine and there is the boiler if you wish to prepare yourself a tea! (out of charge of course ) Thank you about the 'very nice rooms' and I will add, with anatomic mattresses! :)

The kitchen was good, but they needed a second fridge to hold everything. Unfortunately the door to our room didn't close, which meant it was never locked and open all the time. The staff seemed unconcerned about it. The showers are lukewarm at best. Only wifi in the common area, which was usually lively and inviting. But the bar was a bit lame in the evenings. Staff were helpful with information and laundry facilities were adequate. Location is near a metro station, or you can walk everywhere.

Great kitchen and staff. Smelly inconsiderate roommate was living there and spread out throughout the whole room, but that's not the hostels fault. They provide and awesome map and give great directions and advice on places to go. The bathroom door didn't lock in the bathroom, but they were trying to fix it. I did not like reading the owners justifications on the review comments before going there. Just let people leave their comments without your interference.

Hallo Liam, Hostelworld.com strongly encourages owners to reply to comments and we agree on that. We do not mean to "interfere", nor we have anything to "justify": we just care about guests' impressions and it just seems to us polite and nice to thank people for the positive comments and apologise if anything goes wrong, rectifying if there are any inaccuracies. By he way, this lock of the bathroom issue has finally been reported and fixed the day after.

Super cheap private rooms with kitchenettes. It was exactly what we needed for Malta. Internet in rooms is decent, not always the fastest. Room was ok, a little old and shabby, but clean enough. Didn't meet anyone there. But it is close to the square and restaurants and walking distance to the main bus station, which then you can go all over the island from there. There is no laundry facilities nearby. It is very expensive to get laundry done.

We had an amazing time at Hello Marseille. The staff were so welcoming and made us feel right at home. It is a small hostel so you get to know the people there. Cannot say enought good things about the staff! They were very helpful on where to go and what to see. Breakfast by donation was good. Excellent location. Unfortunately there is only one toilet and one shower for everyone to use(separate rooms). But it never seemed to be an issue.

Close to the train station. Nothing special about the hostel. I wouldn't stay there again though.

We did not get charged to use the kitchen as other reviewers had mentioned. They had also upgraded the wifi the day we arrived so we were able to get it in our room. However it is pretty slow throughout the hostel. Quiet place, not a huge party going on. Would definitely recommend it!

Kitchen was basic but good enough to work with. It is within walking distance to a great local market and there are 2 supermarkets nearby. Internet was awesome in the whole building. The building is also in between 2 metro stations and close to Barcelona Sants train station. Terrace on the roof was pleasant. Small bathroom/shower. Doesn't have adequate maps/travel brochures in the lobby. But would definitely recommend it.
