Comments: Cold or hot water, you can't choose!! There aren't lockers in the rooms (and too expensive downstairs). Good staff. Bad door-lock. Really clean! Internet isn't for free

Comments: I can't really say anything bad about Journey's. It was clean, cheap, very central (close to the London Eye), the people there were friendly, breakfast was included and we had a fun time there. I can totally recommend this hostel.

Comments: Nice location because it is not far away from the important sights of London, the staff is nice, the rooms are clean. I suppose the rooms must be very different if other reviews were so bad. So choose a larger room because they were pretty good.

Comments: Very expensive for the poor quality of the place. Old building looking messy, not clean. The locker/storage is tiny and it probably used to be a small bathroom! I know it is a hostel and not a hotel but it still doesn't worth that much money!!!

Comments: Extremly loud music was played all night long and the staff told no one to quiet down. They even got drunk and no one in our room could sleep. We just wanted a bed so we could sleep and we since we couldn\'t sleep our money was a waste.

Comments: Cons: Our floor bathroom had no lights or hot water after 11 pm. Rooms are tiny. Expensive compared to hotels in other places (but this is a London problem everything is expensive here) Pros: Rooms and beds are clean. Very helpful and nice staff, they let me use their printer at no cost. You can store your luggage after checking out. Very good location, 10 min walk to the London Eye. Would I come back? Probably not. But that's because next time I would probably pay a bit more and go to a Hotel with a private bathroom and a bigger room.

Comments: Very loud at night and small bathrooms, but the staff was nice and it is reasonably close to an underground that is easy/quick access to all the main attractions of London. Main complaint would be that music was blared literally all night our first night

Comments: The location was fabulous! I left the hostel in the morning and walked a few minutes only to see a breathtaking view of the Parliament buildings across the Thames, a great surprise! Breakfast was included, it was simple, but great. My only real issue was the girls I was roomed with. They were unfriendly, messy, and plain rude. The overhead light was kept on all night and I had trouble sleeping, but that's hardly the fault of the hostel. Overall, I had a good stay. Nice, clean, comfortable, just what you look for.

Comments: Bathrooms are super small, including the sinks that you can barely wash your hands in. We stayed in a 4 bed dorm, which was more like a broom closet, no sh*t! It was fine if you only crash for the nite. It was close to London Eye, etc. The sketchiness was kind of confirmed when I was offered hard drugs twice whilst out for a smoke. Apparently it is a drug-ish neighborhood. Its fine if you know how to handle yourself.

Comments: I would never stay at this hostel. The smallest rooms ever made it feel like staying in a broom closet. There was black mould on the shower walls. Never again.

Comments: I only staid there one night, but it was very good...better than I expected. The showers were very clean, the bathroom was very good. The breakfast was a little poor but it was ok if you want to have something to start the day. The room was very small for 8 people, but you could still get some rest without problems. The location is excellent!, and the staff were friendly.

Comments: La localización del hostel és muy buena, lo que queda un poco escaso és el desayuno. Solo comentar que en lo que a limpieza refiere, son los clientes los que ensucian no por falta de higiene en el servicio. Muchas Grácias
