Very good idea of cabin beds, but but lack of power sockets is big minus, and light in the cabin was not working when I was there. Rest was very good.

Great location, right down the road from the KOKO Theater. Plus only 2 blocks from the Camden markets. Was very clean for me, and staff was very friendly. Got a good price on Expedia too! Would recommend any day!

Compact but good, only issue was the smell coming up the plughole in bathroom (ensuite room). Clean, very comfortable bed, great location.

What a little gem! We stayed in a double en-suite room and it cost us less that £70.
Spotlessly clean with air conditioning.
A small room and tiny en-suite but a complete bargain.
Reception staff lovely and accommodating
4.0 / 5.0
The location is very central in Camden and convenient, the staff were friendly and helpful. There was construction outside that was pretty loud early in the morning and the bathroom could have been cleaner, but overall the stay met my expectations.

Good value for a private ensuite in Camden. Very clean, modern room - very comfortable bed. Capsule bathroom is small, but perfectly serviceable. No TV, tea/coffe facilities in the room which was fine by us - coffee, TV in shared room if needed and there is a kitchen. Breakfast is basic (cereal toast juice coffee) but okay to start the day and other options in the area if your prefer- kitchen is super clean. Only issue we had was the request for photo I'd at check in: it's not clear in the info that this is essential - it says they *may* ask for ID (They mention credit card which we thought would be enough) and would request a deposit. They insisted on passport/photo driving license/ID card (no deposit tho). Receptionist was very polite about it, and luckily I had a photo of my passport which she accepted, but they should be clearer as to their requirements.

2.5 / 5.0
A very comfortable stay. The room was clean, the ensuite bathroom was spotless. Each bed has a single USB socket but no mains plug socket, ther was 3 main sockets in the room however. The only thing that would have improved my experience would be having a wall mirror near the plug sockets to allow us ladies to straighten our hair and do our make up, particularly if the bathroom is busy. I'd definately stay again and would recommend.

room smelled like feet, toilet area had no space even for my skinny partner let alone a 5’10 male. didn’t even last 1 hour in the place. went and walked around London at midnight looking for a hotel.
2.0 / 5.0
Fair value for money, the hotel is clean. Was in a 6 bed room, feels a bit small, having 3 superposed beds makes the room crammed. The locker is quite small. Overall good for a few nights provided you are comfortable with confinement.

Clean. Friendly atmosphere from staff. Took a while to get comfy. The bunk beds were a bit full on. But baring in mind the price and location....a small sacrifice. I will stay here again.

The first night I got there I was met by a lovely receptionist who told me i had been upgraded to a bed in a female dormitory when I had booked a bed in a mixed dormitory. They had also thrown breakfast in. The dorm is pretty much as the pictures shown, 9 beds in three sets of 3-high bunks in a small space. There are 4 floors but the kitchen is very small with only a 4 ring hob, a fridge and a microwave. When we first went in I opened the fridge door and was upset to find there was no space but the receptionist made me some that was just big enough to take my cool bag full of food so stuff getting misplaced wasn't an issue for me. I was quite shaken by the attitude of one of the other male staff, who just said dead pan, 'there's no space', no smile, no apology or anything. Later when I asked him a question behind the reception desk he was the same. I found it a bit difficult to relax, there were cameras everywhere, the kitchen was only open between 7 am and 11.30 pm and we were not allowed to take food and drink into the bedrooms. Having said all that, it could have been much worse and for the price it wasn't too bad. 9 people in one small dorm, very good for developing empathy and patience if you are used to your own space as I am.

Location 10/10 otherwise great condition considering the pricing, shower could be cleaned more and personally shouldve chosen a room with less people to sleep better. Thought the bed (bunk) on the floor was a little bit too low for my liking. Nice and friendly staff.

You get what you pay. Didn't expect a lot from a hostel and that's excatly what I've got. It is worth to stay here since you don't have to walk far to go out clubbing. That is the only plus.

Simple, no frills hostel. Remember to bring a towel along, or they can also be purchased at reception if you don't have one.

The facilities of this hostel are dirty and tiny. They have something I've never seen before - triple bunk beds, meaning the bottom bunk is literally at the level of the ground. The rooms are tiny, and you are forced to make up your own bed upon arrival (with stained linens, no less). My room was adjacent to the street - the window was kept open and noise was constant late into the night. Location is great if you're interested in Camden, but if you're looking for a base for a general London trip, this is not your best bet. Bright spot of the stay was breakfast, one of the best hostel breakfasts I've experienced. Would all be better if the price point was correspondingly low, but alas, it was not - cost of a Sunday night corresponded to that of busier nights at nicer hostels I've stayed at in London.
