This hostel worked out perfect for our family. We were given a room with six bunks for the five of us. The hostel was Within easy walking distance of the tube station. There were only two shower stalls for the entire hostel however we never had to wait. I guess waking up early pays off. There was nothing to lock our valuables in. I would recommend a locker or storage box at the very least. The only major hiccup we had involved the kitchen. I was under the impression that we could use the kitchen to prepare breakfast. I was scolded and told to only use the microwave. Apparently the stove and pans I was showing the night before we're no longer available.
