Great place to stay. Good staff, good people. Really nice. However, the rooms might be to small for 12 persons. Never the less, I would not hesitate to go there again! Leonardo, from Spain ~ 16th Nov 2009

It's a nice and small personable place to stay. There wasn't much fun or enteratinment there, and because it's kinda like a local bar, there were older clients there, and because I was an alone woman, they wouldn't stop talking with me, thinking I was lonely, so I couldn't talk too much with the other younger people staying there. Comfortable beds and clean bathrooms, I'd recommend it. Alicia, from USA ~ 12th Nov 2009

I would definitely stay in this hostel again. The location was about 15 minutes walking from the Westminster Bridge. The rooms were clean and so were the bathrooms. The staff was very helpful and friendly. The best part about our stay was that they played Premier League/Champions League games... If you want to catch a match, this is the place to do it... :) leila, from USA ~ 23rd Oct 2009

They have tried to crowd 12 people into rooms that are maybe suited for 8. There was no room to put anything. Upon checking in I used the restrooms and there was no TP in the stall. They advertise a free pint of beer if you book with them witch I never received. I would not recomend this place to anyone. Sean, from Canada ~ 16th Oct 2009

STAY HERE!!! The staff is super friendly and extremely helpful! This place is a lot of fun and you will meet all kinds of great people! With the first floor of the hostel being a bar, the hostel is super fun and very easy to meet people in! I will be staying here again if I'm ever in London again! Kyle, from USA ~ 21st Oct 2009

I thought this place was amazing. Everything was kept pretty clean. The location was really nice not far from the Waterloo train station and just down the street from the Lambeth North tube. If you want convenience, fun, and meeting new people you don't need to go anywhere else! Myshel, from USA ~ 11th Sep 2009

The wifi access is nice, very friendly staff, great location. Prices on pints of beer are amazing. A kitchen (or at least a fridge) would be nice. Anthony, from USA ~ 19th Aug 2009

Bar down stairs was nice and cheap. Not very lively on Sunday-Tuesday however we heard that on Saturday it was Kicking. A little bit far from other nightlife. Go to Masters Fish shop, ask the barkeep. Delicious! Cameron, from USA ~ 6th Aug 2009

Firstly, the location is really good as it's not within the busy area of London but it's just near the Tube Station (Lambeth North). The staff are all friendly and have high customer service. Rooms, linens and bathrooms are excellently maintained. Peace and quiet are kept within the rooms (was really lucky that other customers were considerate and respectful of others).
