2/10 Poor

This was a late night booking where I needed last minute accommodation. I appreciate that hostels have a time limit for check-ins, but if that is known, why allow the booking to be accepted? Paid for the room but was not allowed to check-in due to it being late at night; I accept partly that's on me, but was anxious to find somewhere and not be left in the cold. Staff were sympathetic, but couldn't let me stay. Not impressed with the site at all and lost my money.

6/10 Good

Extremely limited personal space.
Good: great desk staff, and amenities like washer&dryer, toiletries and snacks for sale. Great location near St. Pancreas/Kings Cross. Bad: You can barely fit your body between the rows on beds, back to back. If you are on a bottom bunk, you cannot even sit up in your room. Bathroom is so small and the shower is always dirty (from heavy use.) Literally no place to put on clothes or sit down to tie shoes. And very crowded even in October. I’m a 50yr old female who stayed in a mixed gender room. It basically smelled like feet, mostly from young men. I have stayed at many many hostels throughout my life. I don’t mind sharing space, but I need enough room to turn around and sit down. This hostel doesn’t meet that requirement. I will not stay again.

Great in many ways
Small bed, my feet hung off. Very public if you're on top bunk. Very hard to get into top bunk, when someone is, it shakes the entire row of beds. Sounds wasn't an issue with plugs. Shower nice. EVERYTHING is an optional extra : towel, shampoo, padlock for locker.. etc.

Great stay in a fun and clean hostel environment. Clean common areas including bathrooms and showers, free luggage storage when we left on a side trip for a couple days. We, as 2 adults and our 10-year old, stayed in the 4-bunk private room during both stays. The room was cramped and we kept hitting our heads from the lower bunks, and it didn’t have AC (did have a fan). Regardless, I would stay here again and look to stay at more hostels in the future.

Pod in mixed dorm
Nice service. Friendly atmosphere. Pod gave me good intimacy, however, the bed was a bit hard and pillow too thin. A better air conditioning system is needed as it tends gets too hot in the pod in the summer. Shower floors were a bit dirty as well
