    Disappointing
    Centrally located, sympathetic staff and serious hygiene concerns.
    Very central location, friendly staff, easy check in process
    In my recent hostel stay, I faced significant issues with the heating system. It consistently turned off automatically, leading to a sore throat and a cold. Requesting assistance through WhatsApp or repeatedly asking staff for adjustments caused unnecessary delays. Additionally, the lack of cleanliness in common areas, especially the door handles over my 5-day stay, raised concerns about hygiene. The unchanged bed linen during the last two nights contributed to an overall uncomfortable experience.

    Wouldnt stay again
    It is a 5 min walk to the London Eye/Big Ben. It has a bus stop right at the front door and the bar is really cool. The staff was really nice as well.
    Almost everything. Sheets were dirty, the heating was never on and you had to ask everyday for it to be turned on, sometimes theyd turn it on and then off throughout the night. We stayed 4 days and 3 of those days THERE WAS NO HOT WATER to shower. When asked about this, there were no actual stuff to help out, just a guy who was nice enough to try and help but no actual answer or solution was given.
