  2. PRZEMYSLAW From Poland On November 30, -0001

  3. Thelma From Guatemala On November 30, -0001

  4. Dai From England On November 30, -0001

    The position was really useful for the start of a cycle ride but the rooms smell and are in great need of updating. The price however is good.
  5. Yen From Mexico On November 30, -0001

    I really enjoyed my vacations in this place, it is amazing all that you have for that price if you compare with another places. Breakfast buffet with fruit, cereals, yogurt, bread, coffe, milk, eggs and jam and more, Very nice way for staring the day. Also you can relax in the pool paying minimun price, you have the big gardens and very nice instalations. It was incredible to stay there, it was almost just me with all the facilities,you have a salon with games and machines to buy things, drinking water. I felt like a queen, because all this big place was almost just for me. And the old lady at reception is very kind and lovely. The rooms are not very big, but clean and nice, closet, desk, washbasin, TV. My room was with sharing bathroom, but its a batroom for just two person, wich is very good, it is like inside the room, because the another room was empty, then the bathroom was just for me. The only thing that can be a little bit annoying is that is far from central London, but there are many buses for going there, the soutern line for example, doesnt mattter if it's very night, the bus number 3 can take you back, I definitively would back for my next visit to London.

    I was very happy and I hope to return back
  7. allen From Italy On November 30, -0001

    Cold and wet, the rain and humidity came through the room window, the cleaners came just every few days. The bed was not so comfortable and towards the end of my staying some documents disappear from my room. Moreover, it is incredibly uncomfortable to reach London centre, It takes an hour at least, mainly because it isn't connected by the underground. The kitchen stuff were very friendly and helpful though.
  8. Christian From Denmark On November 30, -0001

    We were competing in the sportshall, which was a 30 second walk from the hostel - perfect location! Staff was very kind and helpful.
  9. Philippe From France On November 30, -0001

    Did not know breakfast was included and did not really need it. I prefer a lower price!
  10. beatrice From New Zealand On November 30, -0001

    we were staying close to family consequently fun factor and atmosphere were not applicable - park surrounds and lack of earthquakes a definite plus - will recommend to others
  11. Leonardo From Brazil On November 30, -0001

    I really liked to stay there. The staffs are amazing. Nice Place, but a litle bit far from London center, but exists many ways to get there, without problem. The breakfast is very good. I recommend.
  12. Mai From Japan On November 30, -0001

    The door is difficult to open and key doesn't work. Someone can see inside of the room from key hole.The shower and toilet are share one other person. This room's light went out.
  13. Nicole From Australia On November 30, -0001

    Dirty, falling apart, horrible. Only thing going for it was the staff who did everything they could to help but the place is a dump
  14. krista From Finland On November 30, -0001

    Be wear of the woodpecker =)

  15. Paulius From Lithuania On November 30, -0001

    I and my dad went for London sightseeing. Everything was lovely for such a low price. Hostel is situated 25min from London center in a quite park. Rooms were humble but clean. Good breakfast to start the day with. Friendly stuff. Looking forward to come back in the future. Paulius Lithuania
  16. samira From Netherlands On November 30, -0001

    It was a good hostel, but it was way to far from the city center. It would be perfect if they had a shuttle bus or something.
  17. Augusto From Portugal On November 30, -0001

    This is a good place and Hostel. The people work here is very Happy and amasing. I love my Jorney in London. And the breakfast is inclued on bill.I recomend this place and I will came back.

  18. Giselle Aurea From Brazil On November 30, -0001

    This is a realy nice hostel! Wonderful staff, a great breakfast, excelent location (in a park). A bit far from the town but you have a lot of buses and trains day and night to take you to the heart of London. This hostel is in my top 5 list! Thank you for the excellent stay!
  19. Anita From Netherlands On November 30, -0001

    We were there for New Years Eve and needed a place to stay that wasn't far from the centre of London and cheap. There's a train station next to the hotel and within a half an hour you're in the centre of Londen. The staff was so sweat and very helpfull. If you're going to London and all you want to do is see the city and shop I highly recommend this hotel!! I will definitly go back here next time I'm in London.
  20. Ion From Romania On November 30, -0001

    Very clean, very good value for money. Really good breakfast, if you really want to, you can survive one whole day with only that. I found it kind of cold inside the rooms from time to time, the nearest station is 10 mins away, and the hotel is in a park (which makes it pretty quiet). Free wireless internet in the lobby and some rooms, even though it's very slow. But it's very good value for money.
