I would not recommend this hostel to anyone. Your pictures are wildly misleading and inaccurate. The hostel rooms are completely ill equipped for anyone staying in them. There is nowhere to put your things, there isn’t a bin and there aren’t any hooks in the room. I don’t want to have to walk down 4 flights of stairs to get something out of a locker every time. Our room was for 4 people and it probably 6 foot by 8 foot including two sets of bunk beds. There was absolutely no room to move around. There was no character or personality to the rooms or corridors either, making it feel like a prison. Whilst I appreciate that hostels are notoriously the cheaper option and standards aren’t the same as a hotel, this was actually quite gross and uncomfortable to stay in. Given that we are in the height of summer and the temperatures were hitting 28, thick winter quilts were still on the beds and no way to get any air circulation in the rooms. The sink in the room was absolutely tiny. There was probably getting on for 40 rooms on one floor and only three female toilets and showers. They were dirty and once again, ill equipped to take a shower. Nowhere to put your stuff so everything gets wet. Out of the three showers, only one was actually useable. The light was broken in one and another didn’t lock. Having no kitchen facilities in a hostel is also very disappointing. It was about a 10 minute walk from Elephant and Castle station, so not a bad location.
