Me volvería a quedar.

Número 1 la hostilidad, en el recibidor desde que llegas te sientes en casa, estuvo agradable saber que puedes dejar tu equipaje el día de tu visita sin costo adicional, además la ubicación es excelente. Las habitaciones son bastante espaciosas y buen iluminadas, tiene varios letreros sobre actividades, tours por la ciudad. Definitivamente lo volveré a rentar cuando esté en Londres

Habitaciones con demasiados huéspedes. Hay al menos 10 por habitación, la infraestructura es buena, pero tantas personas dificultan el descanso.

A la vuelta del museo británico, 100% recomendable

La ubicación, queda literalmente a la vuelta del museo británico y se puede ir a muchas de las atracciones principales caminando o en transporte público, hay comercios cerca y tenes todo a mano, la zona es segura de día y de noche. A 1 cuadra hay una plaza. A 2 cuadras pasan los buses. A 4 pasa el subte. La habitación tenía ventana a la calle que para ventilar estaba muy bien pero los findes se escucha todo lo que pasa afuera, nada que no se pueda contemplar, con todo lo que caminas, dormis sin drama igual. 100% recomendable para mujeres que viajan solas como fue mi caso.

Se sube todo por escaleras, pero viajando con solo carry on no pasa nada.

Great for a short stay in London.

Nice location and super friendly staff.

Beds were tilted (hole between the bed and the wall), usb charging station at the beds didn’t work.

The location was great but other stuff not so much, good for 2 nights stay maximum.

It was very close to Ofxord street, metro, British museum, location was great

Well, the bunk beds were very uncomfortable, they make very noisy sounds when someone turns during sleep, the rooms are not spacious, if one were to open the luggage there is not enough space and it makes others uncomfortable because of the noise as well.

Good location but ...

Good location

The room we got was located in the second building, there is no kitchen, no chill area in this building ... so you have to go to the maine building if you want to coock or chill (maybe the hostel has to mention it proprely on booking.com)+ The room was on the ground floor with à toilet view ... When we visited London, it was 35 degrees... so we had 2 options, keep the window close with no air inside or open the window and have all the bad smell...

Disappointed

Good location

I booked on place and when I arrived they changed me without asking for a different building in a different address without kitchen and I only booked the hostel who was at least a kitchen. That was so frustrating and disappointing. I could have booked a better place by the amount I spent buying food on street . I’m so disappointed.

Nice for backpackers, meh for 30+

The location is fantastic, just adjacent to the British Museum, and everything is within walking reach. However, the room was extremely crowded, and the mattresses were little and uncomfortable. I didn't sample the breakfast because it was served in the kitchen below, there was a problem with the lights in the toilets, and I had no idea towels were not provided for free.

There were no towels, and this was not informed in advance. I had a difficult time and received no assistance.

Solicitar alojar en el Primer Edificio

Está al lado del Museo Británico, pero a unos 10 minutos de cualquier estación del underground

Tienes 50% de probabilidad de que te envíen al segundo edificio. En ese edificio había que bajar 4 pisos para lavarse los dientes. No tenía espacios comunes, no tenía lavadora, no tenía nada más que las piezas. El aseo era de menor calidad que en el primer edificio

A perfect place to see the surrounding attractions within walking distance

Astor Museum Hostel is close to a couple of Underground Stations: Holborn Station (about an 8-minute walk) & Tottenham Station (about a 12-minute walk). The British Museum is just next door. I slept in an 8-bed room. My roommates were very nice, courteous people. The showers were quite clean; not much water on the floor. The staff were super nice, friendly & very helpful. There is complementary coffee & tea in the dining & cooking area.

There were no hooks to hang your cloths. The power outlet is tilted at an angle but my converter was too heavy it could not stay in place so was not able to use it all to charge my cell phone. The door did not close properly and made some noise. The bed made noises whenever one moves.

Staff were lovely.

The bathrooms and showers were unacceptable. Mould on the ceiling, showering with flys everywhere. Felt like a prison cell.

The location is very good and the attendants are very polite.

The cost-benefit is not worth it. The bathrooms were very dirty, with fungi on the walls and ceiling. The bathroom drain was clogged.

Location is good. Staff is very nice.

It was hot in the dorm, so the window was open all night and two big noisy fans were on. Woke up a few times.
