However, the 12 person room with bunkbeds were just not for me.

Excellent value for money stay in a set of bunk beds with en-suite for less £100 in the centre of London near tube station and walking distance to all the attractions. Thank you ##### Lorna Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Aug 16, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great It was really great. The staff was really nice and it was really inn. The location is the best only 15 minutes by foot to the center amazing ! The only flat was that it was really hot on the room. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Nicholas Oct 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Room comfort #### Standard dorm Hostels always appear on my searches, so thought I'd hive one a go. It's what you would expect from a hostel, toilet and shower shared between the 9 of us in the dorm. Ladder up maybe could be better, lockers where very large, could do with some more hooks for towels (don't forget to bring your own) and better shoe storage. No food allowed in the room, although some ignored that. Note that it's age restricted to 18-45 years old only. ##### Nicholas Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Dinesh Bhaurao Feb 10, 2023 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Beds are too congested and small. reception guy will not let you seat in reception area unless you check-in.. found so rude behaviour.. ##### Dinesh Bhaurao ### 6/10 Okay #### Tongji Apr 19, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness Like many other reviewers, I have to complain about the metal drawers at the bottom of the bunk beds. I thought I'd be ok with it because I usually wear earplugs. But those noises are unavoidable unless you put on shooting ear mufflers. I constantly woke up at night due to that noise and wasn't able to sleep well during my 3 day stay there. Although they offered the cheapest price for a great location, I would have picked a different place where I can at least sleep through the night. ##### Tongji Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jeremy Aug 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness ##### Jeremy Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Olga Jul 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Olga Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Hana Jul 23, 2025 ##### Hana Stayed 8 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Hana Jul 23, 2025 ##### Hana Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### KINJI Jun 16, 2025 ##### KINJI Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Tango May 18, 2025 ##### Tango Stayed 6 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Ying Sum May 9, 2025 ##### Ying Sum Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### DAVID Apr 20, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Me ha gustado mucho el Hotel tiene la parada del metro detrás, volvería. ##### DAVID Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Martin Apr 7, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service ##### Martin Stayed 5 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Temesgen Mar 24, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### Temesgen Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Ivette TodoAmor Mar 24, 2025 Liked: Amenities Disliked: Property conditions & facilities La habitación de 9 camas es muy pequeña, la cama muy delgada e incómoda ya que está forrada de plástico y aunque le pongas las sábanas te hace sudar. Las regaderas son incómodas porque no tienen una banquita o algún mueble donde puedas colocar tu ropa o mínimo la llave de la habitación, prácticamente tienes que salirte en toalla o arriesgarte a que se mojen tus pertenencias. Los baños son como en un centro comercial, todos juntos, no hay un mínimo de privacidad. El personal de recepción es Amable, pero hay una señora de limpieza (cabello negro y ojos azules) súper grosera, mal educada y agresiva, súper mal educada! Lo único bueno es la ubicación. ##### Ivette TodoAmor Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Abhijeet Dec 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service ##### Abhijeet Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Helene Valbø Nov 22, 2024 ##### Helene Valbø Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hilton Garden Inn London Heathrow Terminal 2 and 3](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-London-Heathrow-Terminal-2-And-3.h33088275.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton London Kensington](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Hilton-London-Kensington.h26612.Hotel-Information) > > [Staycity London Dalston](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Kingsland-Locke.h57227439.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis London Earls Court](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Ibis-London-Earls-Court.h14264.Hotel-Information) > > [Crowne Plaza London Heathrow T4 by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Crowne-Plaza-London-Heathrow-T4.h22334825.Hotel-Information) > > [London Heathrow Marriott Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-London-Heathrow-Marriott-Hotel.h438504.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis London Heathrow Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Ibis-London-Heathrow-Airport.h16754.Hotel-Information) > > [Aerotel London Heathrow Airport Terminal 2-3](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Aerotel-London-Heathrow-T2-T3.h21528024.Hotel-Information) > > [Danubius Hotel Regents Park](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Danubius-Hotel-Regents-Park.h26085.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Place London Heathrow Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-London-Heathrow-Airport.h1716953.Hotel-Information) > > [Ibis budget London Heathrow Central](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Ibis-Budget-London-Heathrow-Central.h72386009.Hotel-Information) > > [Sofitel London Heathrow](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Sofitel-London-Heathrow.h1740977.Hotel-Information) > > [The Stratford, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-Stratford-Hotel-London.h31325464.Hotel-Information) > > [Renaissance London Heathrow Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Renaissance-London-Heathrow-Hotel.h9944.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo London Heathrow Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Leonardo-London-Heathrow-Airport.h570358.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton London City](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Arbor-City-Hotel.h201127.Hotel-Information) > > [Tribe London Canary Wharf](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Tribe-London-Canary-Wharf.h83096424.Hotel-Information) > > [MOXY London Heathrow Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-MOXY-London-Heathrow-Airport.h20463397.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn London Heathrow - Bath Road by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-London-Heathrow-Bath-Road.h25727547.Hotel-Information) > > [Thistle London Heathrow Terminal 5](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Thistle-London-Heathrow-T5.h882761.Hotel-Information) > > [Mama Shelter London - Shoreditch](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Mama-Shelter-London-Shoreditch.h1886693.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton London - Docklands Riverside](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-London-Docklands-Riverside.h2456.Hotel-Information) > > [Stamford Bridge Hotel London](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Stamford-Bridge-Hotel.h65802.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express London Heathrow T4 by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-London-Heathrow-T4.h22336089.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Place London City East](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-London-City-East.h60903297.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton London Canary Wharf](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Hilton-London-Canary-Wharf.h1457899.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson RED Hotel London Heathrow](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Radisson-RED-Hotel-London-Heathrow.h46218383.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Points Flex by Sheraton London Shoreditch East](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-East-London-Hotel.h27372440.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel London West](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Novotel-London-West.h17246.Hotel-Information)
