Good ok hostel but, I've been to hostels for similar price with better facilities.especially lockers to keep stuff, power sockets and a light per bed.
Also although there was a girl at the reception it was the guy who took me to my female dorm. I don't remember seeing or hearing him knocking or anything he just opened the door just like that. I felt very uncomfortable. No privacy..

Garden, common area, kitchen are all wonderful. Staff is chilled and very friendly and helpful.
Please lablel the plug/outlet the fridge is plugged in so people do not unplug it.

The breakfast was included which was nice, and the location really close to an underground station was really handy. There is a small supermarket just around the corner.
The overall cleanliness leaves a lot to be desired. The bunk beds are incredibly wobbly and creaky, and the overall soundproofing is quite non-existent, so sadly our group slept really badly.
