This place is amazing! Good location, good price and good customer service. I got a private twin room for one month. For the check-in I was assisted by Lionel and Tiffany, who were extremely nice and professional! They are above and beyond. The hostel offers free Wi-Fi, daily breakfast, room service every day, a communal refrigerator and laundry facilities. It is a clean and a well-maintained hostel. I will definitely stay here every time I visit London. There is simply nothing negative to say about it! Hyde Park, tube/bus stations, grocery stores and good restaurants are nearby. Safe neighbourhood!

Finely Georgian House.
Comfortable hallway on the elevation access. Just to share our fully equipped kitchenette next to the dining hall. Too small bed due to over 6 beds shared room.

One night stay
We were only there for one night but slept well. The beds were comfy and room was clean. It was also quiet! Good value for money. The only issue was not being able to get down in the lift from the top floor, one of us has to walk with a stick so it was difficult.

Single Ensuite
The single room with an ensuite bathroom/shower was perfect for my short business stay. It provided comfort in the perfect location, at a great price! Check-in was fast and easy, the room was easy to access using the lift, it was clean and efficient. There is a small kitchen on the lower level, a café on the ground floor, and a pub next door. There is also a small grocery across the street. I highly recommend it!
