"It is a bit difficult for me to accurately review as I never actually got to see the room that I booked. The building was clean, modern and secure. Handily placed from the tube line and a few eateries in the near vicinity. I thought it was going to be a great option. Check in was due to be 3pm. I arrived slightly early and told that my room was not yet ready. Fair enough, and not an issue. I was asked to wait in the foyer. I think that there was also a staff changeover as the person i...

"The staff was very kind and friendly but there was a lot of confusion and lack of organization. There were also no towels for rent at the desk as the website said there would be and the toilet in the all female dorm was broken (not a huge deal as there was another restroom outside the room but still not ideal). The rooms themselves were clean and the beds were normal hostel beds. Definitely worth the $20/night but not much more than that."
