Overall, this was good value for the price and the hostel is in a great location - close to the tube and there is a grocery store and multiple restaurants down the street. My one complaint was that when I took a shower, the drain was clogged and I was immediately standing in 4 inches of dirty water.
Future guests should note the following:
- The all-female dorm is two floors above the all-female bathroom. All other bathrooms are any gender.
- There are no privacy curtains on the bunks
- Dorms do not have quiet/curtesy hours posted
- The kitchen is small and closed when the staff are cooking dinner. Dinner is limited to the first 30 people who sign up each morning. So if you have plans to make your own dinner, you can’t use the kitchen during normal dinner hours
- Guests are not allowed to store cooked food in the fridge, so you can’t keep leftovers
- The communal area is pretty small for the number of guests that can fit into the hostel. The hostel was not at full capacity when I was there but I often couldn’t find a place to sit and eat. Although in the summer, there are many seats to sit out in the garden
- Each bunk is assigned a lock box for your items that rolls under the bed. I liked this system and the boxes are fairly large.
- My bunk did not have a bedside light or shelf
