It is one of the best hostel I have ever stayed. They offer wonderful breakfast, and good service. However, the doors of the toilt or shower rooms are too heavy. It is quite noisy that I even can hear the sound of opending or closing doors all the time in my own room.

It was a great stay in High Holborn. The location is perfect, just a 5 minute walk to Covent Garden and Oxford Street. Rooms and bathrooms are cleaned every day. Best is the breakfast. It's a great buffet with everything you would like to eat in the morning.

But then I couldn't get my luggage back emediately because the guy who was supposed to get it was not there and the receptionist couldn't reach him either. So I had to wait about 20 minutes then I finally got the key card to get my things myself (guys still hadn't shown up). Since I had to catch a flight it wasn't much fun to wait that long. Other than that my stay was good.close

I really recommend this place: clean private affordable rooms within walking distance to Soho, Trafalger square and Holburn tube station. i found the staff friendly and efficient. Not a great place to meet people but by far one of the cheapest private rooms I have ever stayed in.

This was a great place to stay. It's about 5 minutes from the Underground, very clean and very quiet. Security is top notch and the staff was great. There's free linen and towels, free breakfast and a cool place to hang out at night. The only problem I had was that the luggage storage room...

At 1st I was a bit sceptic when my friend suggested using a hostel. I'm glad I gave it a chance. It was a good experience, and I can easily say that this place was cleaner than some hotels that I've stayed in. Thanks guys!!!
