Very friendly people, very close to the underground, nice place to stay
If you're looking to save money and will hardly be at the facility (only need a bed and shower), this is the place for you. Obviously at a hostel, you're not going to sleep much anyway, with people in and out of your rooms. Not the fault of the hostel. What was really annoying was that you couldn't have free wifi for the room. I suppose it's a business model, make you come to the common area with wifi so you end up buying food and drinks, meet people. But it's not a hotel. People come to the hostel to save money, and not having wifi in the room is ridiculous. What is worse is the wifi in the common area didn't work most of the time I was there. All I was told was go to the kitchen for wifi downstairs and that didn't work either. Then I made my complaint at checkout and the only thing they could say was "we feel your pain".
They deserve to get a good rate because of a good place, a reasonable price, clean rooms and a bathroom. I stayed with 3 people.

Hi there, thanks for taking the time to leave us with a review. With regards to our WIFI; our policy is to restrict it to the communal areas in an effort to help maintain a social and interactive environment. We hope you can appreciate this reasoning, and we're sorry for any inconvenience it may have caused you. We've also been having some issues with the WIFI of recent, however we recently had an engineer out to fix the issue. We hope you'll have a better experience next time, should you choose to stay with us again in the future. Kind regards, Steve Team Member YHA London Central
