Mapesbury Hostel London

WE DO NOT RECOMMEND We bought two double rooms for two nights. The rooms were different from the picture, tiny, the bathroom in deplorable condition. There are many places to stay, not just one at the address indicated. If you buy several rooms, you may find that you will be sleeping several kilometers from each other. The advance payment is not included in the price of the room, you have to pay it twice. We lost the advance payment and our time. Below is our story. We reached the house from under the address. It turned out to be closed and we couldn't reach the office because it was after its business hours. We spent about an hour sitting on the stairs waiting for someone to tell us what we could do. Finally, the man who knew about our reservation arrived. It turned out that he had to drive us to another property about 2km away. He then led us to the first double room with a bunk bed. We then asked where the second room was. Well it turned out that the man knows nothing about it, and is very surprised how it is two rooms. Despite the fact that on the piece of paper he had written that we were supposed to be in two rooms for two nights. After some 30min of explaining that we had bought two rooms, he suddenly noticed that yes right, but the second room is in another building. After much discussion, we agreed to stay in one room. When it came to paying, he said we were to pay the entire amount, despite the fact that the deposit had already been paid at the website. At this point we gave up on the accommodation.

The twin room was the tiniest I have ever lived in and had a bunk bed. Just a place to sleep. The walls were very thin. Adjacent to the room was the kitchen where people talked and laughed till around 3 a.m. - it was hard to get any sleep. What's more, on average, 2-3 people each night smoked pot in the dirty garden outside our room and all the stench went in through the only window in the room. Toilets dirty, out of 3 shower handsets I tried using, all leaked! Would not stay there again
