For secure accomodation close to central London, in agood location, this is excellent. Just off tower bridge, and London Bridge tube station is only a 10 minute walk.

Great if you want peace and quiet, a clean equipped kitchen, and to feel safe. Nice hot shower. A little pricey, but considering you're a stone's throw from London Bridge trains and Tower Bridge, it's fantastic. A few cafés and eateries around. Super easy transport.

Good location. bed a little small but otherwise room was very clean and comfortable, if basic. Staff were a little unhelpful when I tried - on check-in - to cancel the last two nights of the four nights I had booked. They claimed they didnt allow this but permitted the cancellation in the end... more Good location. bed a little small but otherwise room was very clean and comfortable, if basic. Staff were a little unhelpful when I tried - on check-in - to cancel the last two nights of the four nights I had booked. They claimed they didnt allow this but permitted the cancellation in the end after I explained that hostelworld very clearly advertises the right to cancel a nights booking at least 24 hours in advance.close

good location(10min from tube), room was ok but no television, room and bathroom were clean, security was good(4 door to open to get into the room!), but no hot water in the shower. Staff ok. There was no restriction on entering/exiting hour. Good price for a single+sharewroom.

Bigger rooms than at Westminster University's Fleming Hall, and more common facilities, mostly unused. Over 2 nights I met just 2 people.

On the Hostelworld website it states there isn't 24hr reception which might be off-putting but there is security at reception during the night, which is great.
