This was my first time in a hostel and a lot of the negative connotations I had we’re completely false, for the price I paid it was a perfect quick stay, my area was clean and tidy, the other people staying in my room were polite, respectful but messy, I guess that’s expected when staying in a room with 15 other people.
Beautiful location next to Hyde Park for early morning or late night walks. I would definitely stay here again if I need a cheep last minute stay in London.
