Horrible

We booked a room with a bathroom, upon arrival I told reception that there was no light in the bathroom and they said yes, we'll see. When I arrived at night there was no light in the bathroom and at reception they told me, there's no one around now to check on that, the hostel is a dirty mess, all the rubbish on the ceilings, if you want towels you have to pay £5, they gave me a room on the fourth floor without an elevator, I understand it's a hostel but at almost £80 for a room with a bathroom in these conditions, and super far from everything, an experience that I don't recommend anyone go through.

Beautiful, pretty cheap but some issues.

It's a hostel. Going into that is important to remember. I'm not comparing to a hotel level service. The good: the staff all seemed pleasant and helpful even when they couldn't give me what was promised. The building is beautiful and common areas are decorated very cute. Breakfast smelled good though we woke too later for it. There's outdoor space and a park next door which is rare for London. Once you get through the gate there's a pretty safe feeling. It's walkable from the tower bridge and plenty of public transport options. Now, the bad. The room was full of black specks on the clean white bed upon arrival which seemed to duplicate no matter what we did. Turns out the window was rusted away at the bottom of the window sill, which would explain the constant draft. The specks appeared to be from a mix of rust and bird excrement and feathers. We came in April, which is still rather cold some days and the radiator did nothing, so my guess is the boiler was turned off already. The deadbolt didn't prevent the door from being accessed from the outside. They charged me for towel rental before checking that they didn't have enough towels to give me. I don't know how many issues could have been fixed if we had asked for another room or more assistance. We ended up only staying 1.5 days & checking out and moving to another hotel. This morning (my original checkout day), I received a notice to checkout while aboard my plane. Remains to be seen if I'm actually checked out or not.

Great staff, perfect location as the bus stops just outside. It was nice and quiet, and manageable but would have liked to have hot water for the shower and a heater or insulated windows in our room. It was in the 40’s at night in April and they had no heat:(.

I stayed here a week, my first time in a hostel. The reception is always very friendly and helpful. I spent a lot of time in the common areas. I met some really nice people that were also staying there. They have lockers for 5£ per use. The beds were comfortable and clean linens. Very close to food options. I would stay here again.

A very large bright and breezy hostel. Focused happy and helpful staff. The building is a conversion not purpose built but you get everything you need. A good comfortable bed. Clean bedding. The third floor was a building site. A good place to hostel, near to the city. I walked to the river in 40 mins though buses were running at 5am .
