Nice generous staff who let me in at a late hour. Cosy shared dorm room, cool with only four of us downstairs below the offices. Also flexible about letting me have a rest in the social area on Saturday afternoon. So l met a nice Czechlovakian group of youngsters who were quite polite and friendly to me. Helpful secure storage room for travellers like myself, on a quick visit to London.

Hostelworld says

YHA London Earls Court has been recommended by Hostelworld guests for its "cheerful, friendly and helpful welcoming staff". Our visitors tell us this "immaculately-presented hostel" offers "bright and airy" common rooms with "notice boards full of fun ideas for things to do at value prices" as well as a "great location, reasonable price and plenty of space in the dorms". One user commented that "Earls Court itself is the perfect spot, crossing two main metro lines and one easy metro ride from Heathrow". We like their all-you-can-eat continental breakfast.
