Review by hotel critic
The hostel provided a unique blend of functionality and social interaction, making it a great option for budget-conscious travelers. I was particularly impressed with the availability of universal adapters and hair dryers—both requiring a £5 deposit that is returned upon return of the items. This thoughtful touch made my preparations for days out much smoother, especially for an archaeologist often on the go. The shared dorms are a bit noisy, which is typical for any hostel, but the atmosphere was amicable. I appreciated having the flexibility of a 24-hour luggage store at reception—allowing me to explore the city unencumbered. The location near the Underground was a bonus, making traveling around London easy. The staff, multilingual and quick to assist, contributed to a communal vibe that suited both young travelers and professionals. It served as a reliable base for exploring London, appealing to those needing economical and sociable accommodations closer to the city’s heart.
