Comments: A little way out if you are there to sight see but definitely worth while. By way of how hostels go this is comfortable and you can actually use the bathroom facilities without feeling even dirtier. My pick of London hostels and will definitely returning.

Comments: Well run hostel and very close to tube station which was good when arriving back late. Very large so plenty of room to roam but it had a very clinical feel. We had a double ensuite room which was kitted out well and very clean. Only bad thing was our end of the corridor stank! Probably due to being near the mens toilets!!

Comments: Really close to the Stamford Brook Station. 40 minutes to Terminal 5. Seemingly smoothly run with helpful front desk staff. More like a hotel with a bar than your typical hostel, likely due to the size of it. Good breakfast!

Comments: Though clean and well-kept, this large hostel is not near the major sites in London. The "Smartcard" purchasing system is an annoying layer of indirection. You have to put cash into a machine, load it onto your card, then take your card to the shop. Why can't you just pay the person in the shop? They call it a "Cashless System" - but the machine accepts only cash! Also, at the desk they will charge you £19 for a bed in a 6-person dorm, when you can book it online for £10!

Comments: Great hostel, especially for one thats so large. its clean as, and the curtains on the bed are a dig hot diggity idea. I dont mind the fact that its a bit out of town, but if you dont like the idea of having to spend the extra 20 minutes on the train catch the train in then dont stay here. otherwise great value.

Comments: After trying a few, I think this is the best place to stay in London, Clean comfortable and value for money. The hairdryers are a nice extra, in the cold grey wet, English weather. Great for Heathrow. I'll come again

Comments: I went this weekend with 3 of my friends that I met in my study abroad program and we all had a great time! The staff was really nice and helpful and we liked hanging out at the bar downstairs at night. This was most of our first hostel experiences and it was awesome.

Comments: we ask for a double room,it had a bunk and it was a little dissapointing.the breakfast wasn´t very rich for the price we were paying,and so the bathroom.the hostel has a lot of services.don´t forget it has english plugs and the adaptators they sell are very expoensive, better if you bring them with you in your luggage.very clean,good staff,services, and fun.not bad location,close to the subway.we had a nice stay, but we expected more,it was a little expensive.

Comments: I loved that we all had drapes around our beds, and that there was a sink in the room. The location was a bit annoying, it was about 30 minutes on the tube into the city. If you are looking for a fun experience in England it's great, if you are looking for a good place to tour London from, try somewhere else.

Comments: Very good hostel. Cheaper hostels in London are generally very poor but this place really has a lot to offer. It is clean, comfortable and fun. Theres plenty of place to hang out, movie room, lounge area, bar etc. And there is a great kitchen which is always handy. All things considered, I would definately recommend this place to any friends coming to London (in fact, i already have).
