I will write a review for Russian visitors of this hostel.
I will answer right away that yes -this is one of the cheapest hostels in central London.And I understand it very well.I will not write about cleanliness and service.I'll write about global shoals.
1-Not only tourists or people who came for a couple of days for work live in the hostel.
In my room(room 1)There were 4 male builders.Who have been living here for months.It feels like you're visiting them.
It didn't bother me that all the men in the room besides me were male.It doesn't matter.But living with guests who set their own rules in the room is somehow not comfortable.
2-cleaning of premises 1 time per day.from 11 to 12.
It's great for rooms.But for showers and bathrooms, this is sad.If you can go to the shower immediately after cleaning, while everything is clean, then there is absolutely trouble with the toilets there.It is not possible to go there in the evening.You walk on toilet paper and urine.Not very.
Well, 3)
The payment was withdrawn from the card 3.....3 times.3.
The first time before check-in.During check-in and the next day.
No one said anything until I turned myself in.It's very strange.When they handed over the cash register at the end of the day, they had no questions from where plus 100 pounds???
Advice: do not pay for the entire stay at once.
So that there is an opportunity to change the hostel.
