My boyfriend and I stayed 2 nights in the private double room n22. The hostel is in a perfect position to visit the city. The staff is kind and helpful. There wasn't the hair dryer in the room but I asked to the reception and they gave it to me immediately. The breakfast is good! There are also a lot of pubs and clubs in the street but the room was quiet, except for the floor that is quite noisy we heard the steps upstairs. The room was small but clean and comfortable. I recommend it!
When I arrived, the man informed me that my bed wasn't available and they had to relocate me. I wasn't offered a refund of the price difference, however, the guy assisting me was very friendly. The room was clean and the bed was surprisingly comfy. The hostel itself was quirky and colourful! Difficult to rate the location. I wanted somewhere quiet to put my head for the night and this place didn't offer that. There were extremely loud noises until gone 4am. However, if I'd wanted a place to go out partying, it would have been fantastic!
the staff is excellent, the hostel is young and very cheerful, breakfast included is very fair! I felt very comfortable during my stay, there were many options to do around and I was able to take the bus/metro to the most diverse destinations without the slightest problem. I just missed a plug near my bed lol. I will come back for sure!
It was far cleaner than we all expected due to the price. The breakfast was really good and the staff even cooked some things like sandwiches and cheese on bread and that. Our 10-people room was divided in two and our side had a lot of privacy. The staff was really wonderful and we didn't feel unsafe at any point. Also, it's really well situated and you can go almost anywhere in London within a 30-40 minutes period.
This hostel is clearly a very budget option so I was not expecting much from the private ensuite room. The room was simple, bunk bed, no table or chair. But I found it very clean and perfect for a place I arrive at late and leave from early. My only disappointment was that breakfast was only offered from 8 am. I had to leave before that.
My stay at the dictionary hostel was quite horrific to say the least. I was supposed to get a 6-bed dorm room but I ended up getting a 10-bed one. It's almost impossible to close your eyes and sleep correctly since the near-by clubs are loud as hell and that the walls aren't isolated at all. I eventually got my room after waiting for 1 hour because it was being cleaned. Cleaning is supposed to be done in the morning, not when your guests arrive. The restroom and the shower where quite disgusting as well. And the icing on the cake : the reception room smells like pee. I do not recommend you stay there.
Great team, great location and great rooms. I was happy with how they welcomed me! Very nice people working there. I will say that they are out of stock for adaptors and locks but the store next to the hostel got it. I was a little disappointed by the breakfast as they were no vegan option for milk but that's my personal preference. Also you may have to wait for a receptionist to help you but you may meet nice people in the mean time ;
Bed was comfortable and decent shower and toilet. Breakfast passable. Unfortunately this hostel is not your thing if you're not used to nightlife as club music booms loudly in your room for majority of the night. Anyhow it's affordable and is in the very centre of a vibrant community in North East London
Only stayed one short night so can't go in-depth, but for the price it was a decent sleep, helpful staff, room was pretty warm but sleepable enough. Padlock used for storage was very difficult to open in the morning for some reason, got it open eventually but it was a scare as we were in a rush, so just be careful about that.Rooms: 4/5
I booked my room super far in advance, only to find out they just cancelled my reservation without even saying why. Now i have to find another hostel to stay, but everything in my price range is already unavailable and what is left is super far away and also more expensive. If you want to be sure to have a place to sleep when you get to London, definitely don't book here!!!!
