First time to Europe along with staying in a hostel. Definitely not a hotel, but for the money you can't beat it if your on a budget, very friendly staff, clean rooms, and bathrooms. Would definitely recommend to anyone who would 2nd guess staying at a hostel. More

I stayed here for 2 nights in March when visiting for my Games Maker training for the olympics. Check-in isn't until 2pm and I arrived about 2 hours prior. It was luckily a lovely day so this wasn't a problem as they have no problem storing your belongings for a while and Hampstead Heath is about a 20 minute walk... More

The hostel is a 5 minute walk from Swiss Cottage tube station on the Jubilee line which makes it very practical. The building itself is nice and you can meet lots of travellers there. Rooms are a bit tight and the fact that you're sleeping with many people in the same room implies you will hear snoring and possibly couples... More

Stayed here for one night, the hostel was well located with all the ammentities needed. Only downside was some room mates who decided to start having sex at 11pm making it really awkward for me! The beds have curtains round them so tey prob didnt know i was in the room but still an awful thing to suffer. Very very... More

I've stayed in Palmers Lodge with my uncle for 6 days during our vacations, and it was really nice! The location was really good, quite close to Abbey Road, with access to subway nearby, however a bit far from most of London tourist attractions. We had a very good time in this hostel! A lot of bathrooms, cleaned many times... More

My sister chose this place and it was fairly priced with nice staff, basic breakfast from 7:30-10am, females and males have their own showers and toilets. It's outside of inner London, which wasn't bad because all you have to do is take a 10-minute walk to the Swiss Cottage tube station where it will take you strait to the hustle... More

I stayed here in November and came back again with another friend a couple of weeks ago. Still stand by what I said, I like this place. For 20 pounds a night in London, that's pretty good. More

This hostel is more like a 3.5 but I'm rounding up to 4 since it was a positive experience overall. I stayed for three nights in a dorm that had 28 beds; that's far more beds than any other hostel dorm I've stayed in but it was still fairly quiet. THE GOOD: Each bed had a privacy curtain, a locker... More

Checked out yesterday after a six-night stay. Am currently sporting bedbug bites all over my face, neck, waist, and arms, that began showing up around Day 3. I know it was this hostel because a) it's the only one I've stayed at, and b) I saw the telltale bedbug fecal stains on my pillowcase and sheets (unfortunately, when I noticed... More
