Me and my husband have been there for 3 nights. A cozy hostel near King's Cross train station and underground, staff is really kind and has many services. Rooms are well heated and you can choose the level of heating. Kitchen and common areas are well equipped and in the morning you can have breakfast prepared by the staff. Only "negative" thing is that some areas like bathroom near rooms is not so much soundproof, but no dramas. So, hostel well recommended!

I stayed in a pod and it was one of the better hostel experience i had. The pod provides a lot of privacy and ample sound proofing. The pod is also large enough to fit me (188cm, 6'2'). The common facilities could be cleaner. the bathroom and the showers are quite cramped for a large person like me. the area is very convenient located next to king's cross station.

Liked: Staff & service
The hostel is about a 5 min walk to St Pancras and Kings Cross Stations. As a solo female traveller I felt safe walking to and from the stations and hostel. There’s a small co op right beside the hostel and a costa coffee on the other side, a Salisbury grocery is only 3 minutes walk away. There are a lot of dining options within a few minutes walk from the hostel. I stayed in a 4 bed female only dorm. At 5ft 10 the bunks were too short for me and the mattresses were absolutely terrible. Huge divot in the middle of the mattress. Very tight space. There was a ton of hair all over the floor when I first checked in. I’m not sure if that was because I was first to check in and did early check in and the housekeeping staff didn’t fully clean it? Slightly run down but all in all it’s not terrible. If the mattress was even halfway decent I’d have given the hostel a higher rating. Good atmosphere.

I really liked this hostel! I stayed here for a night and it was clean, quiet and you get a sense of privacy if you book the pods which i did. The location is great only two minutes walk to Kings cross. would reccommend
