Room was in good condition. Private bathroom was very small and could have been cleaner. Lockers were expensive to rent considering that you could only place items in them one time (if you wanted to put more stuff in it would cost you an additional £5). Had a good stay Staff were all very helpful and nice.

Staff were nice, other than that was pretty dire, I booked an 8 bed room and was put into a 10 bed, there was an en-suite but it had no toilet paper or hand soap or cold water so was pretty useless, was advertised as a plug and a reading light per bed, but were only 3 pairs of plugs and no lights

Julian

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Bunk bed was a total nightmare to get in to apparently being designed for prison use with a metal ladder with very thin rungs that caused acute pain to the bottom of my feet. Also staying in a four room dorm was a mistake as the three other users had stolen my bed as a luggage rack and had to get up to remove it when I arrived. Also they all got up together at 8am making it impossible for me to sleep on till 10pm. Bunk beds were also near impossible for a larger sized male to get in and out of due to unacceptably narrow opening to the torturingly uncomfortable metal ladder to reach the top bunk.

It was an okay stay. Great price for the location and being in London. The room was terribly small and the soundproofing was dreadful. We shared a floor with a group of students from France, and they spent multiple hours running around and shouting. We sent a complaint to reception, but nothing was really done.
