Un poco caro para lo que es pero tiene las facilidades esenciales. Agua para cargar en la recepcion, cocina muy bien equipada y baño dentro de cada habitacion. Comodo de usar, no muy buen olor

I stayed 3 nights in a female only dorm room. The room, the toilet room and shower were all very clean as were the common spaces. The full breakfast was filling but I also cooked in the kitchen which was ok other than someone "mistakenly" taking my milk in the fridge. Thameside hosts a lot of school groups so it could be a bit noisy and congested in the common spaces at times. The hostel is a bit far from the Tower Bridge area but easy to get to using the frequent 381 bus. I recommend!
