Good cabin but missing power plug

Very good idea of cabin beds, but but lack of power sockets is big minus, and light in the cabin was not working when I was there. Rest was very good.

Once I checked in and spoke with a staff member; I was shown the set up with the app and how it unlocked the doors. Really clever. Private 6 bed dorm with bathroom was fab and most importantly was clean. I slept really well, bed really comfortable. I will definitely stay again when visiting Camden. So easy and so reasonable.

Exceprional budget hotel

A budget hostel that delivered so much more than we expected. The bed was comfortable and the room was exceptionally clean. Provided AC and a decent private shower room. All we needed for an overnight stay with very reasonable prixes for London

Disappointing Stay - Double Charged and Ignored

My experience at this hostel was extremely disappointing. Upon arrival, I was charged again for my stay, even though I had already paid by credit card through Expedia. Due to a communication error on their side, the hostel had no record of my payment, and I was forced to pay a second time to avoid being turned away. Although I immediately provided proof of the original payment, I was told the refund would be processed in a few days. That was on April 20, 2025. Today is May 14, 2025, and I still have not received the refund. My attempts to contact the hostel via email and WhatsApp have been completely ignored. No replies at all. On top of that, the facilities were far from comfortable: extremely low beds, a tiny and unsafe bathroom, many stairs with no elevator, and no power outlets near the beds. After the initial issue, the receptionist offered one day of locker use and breakfast during my stay, but that gesture does not make up for the stress, inconvenience, and lack of professionalism I encountered. I am still waiting for a refund and a response, both from the hostel and from Expedia. I would not recommend this place.

The stay was at a good price but it’s very noisy with you being able to hear people moving about in the corridors and above. Also there was a person sitting in the garden shouting for an hour and when being told to be quiet he carried on. It didn’t seem like the staff were doing anything about it. Another thing to note is there are no lifts or step free access which I didn’t realise so that made it hard to carry up my luggage
