Do not stay at this hostel. The staff are rude and the property is old. No charging points in the room, no lift to get upstairs with your luggage. The communal TV lounge is constantly locked and the "restaurant" on site that is advertised is non existant.

£19 for a night in central London — and I slept 13 hours straight. 4-bed dorm, only one other guest. Clean bed, fresh linen, en-suite bathroom, warm, quiet. No complaints, simply - just sleep. In an era where a pack of cigarettes costs more than a bed in Zone 1, some people still find reasons to complain. I found reasons to be grateful. This place does exactly what it promises. Nothing more, nothing less. And sometimes that is everything.
