Stayed for 3 nights for a weekend in London. Stayed in a 8-bed mixed dorm, which was adequate albeit small. Bed was equipped with USB and power socket and reading lamp. However, the power went out on my last night and was unable to be sorted. Staff were great in trying to fix this though. The main positive of the hostel is the communal spaces which are excellent to work/chill in. There is also a large area downstairs where there is a kitchen to cook in (which I did not do during my stay) and a bar, with a great selection of drinks. I will return for the social aspects of this hostel.

Super social, the kitchen was alright, the staff are friendly and helpful. I'm a female solo traveller, stayed in a mixed dorm with 4 beds and felt perfectly safe. But this hostel is not for everyone, weekends are too noisy for sleep because of the (great) bar. The room ran quite hot even in February, lucky my bed was next to the window. Something that can't be excused however are the poor shape of the showers, dirty, and mattresses, worn down. But most backpackers are prepared for this. I would definitely stay here again for the social and fun, also why my rating is so positive. Let's just say I was one of the lucky ones, it's a gamble for sure.
