Strong point: clean, location, and value for price. Weak point: The dorm room doesn’t have curtains for a bit of privacy.

Space is quite tight. Need to pay for towel and no amenities provided at all. Got lockers but no way a luggage can fit. No aircon. Quite hot at night. Good thing is they have staff in reception all day

Very pleasant, close by kings cross, perfect if you have train or flight to catch in the morning. I picked the capsule room, its spacious enough. And very bright and pleasant in the morning. Kitchen facilities is nice, but can get very overly crowded at time, do avoid the meal time if you can.

The location is perfect for me to get aroud. Stayed in a 4 beds room, it's small and if you've a big luggage, it won't be easy to fit into the provided locker. No free luggage storage, £4 per bag 🙄. Other than that, it's still value for money.

The location of the hostel is great, as it is very close to Kings Cross Station. However, there are some major problems with this hostel: 1. During the summer, it’s almost impossible to sleep in the room because it gets extremely hot. They provide a fan, but it is insufficient for 12 people. Many guests end up moving the fan to their own beds, leaving others to sweat profusely. It honestly feels unbearable at times, making restful sleep very difficult. 2. According to other guests, there aren’t enough washrooms, which leads to inconvenience. The smell in the facilities is quite unpleasant. 3. The shower area is not cleaned properly and is too small. It’s very challenging to stand comfortably and wash yourself. 4. The sink is so small that when you wash your face, water spills over. In fact, my toothbrush is bigger than the sink! Overall, these issues significantly detract from the comfort of the stay.
