I had a wonderful experience staying at Safestay London Elephant & Castle hostel during my very first time staying in a hostel rather than a hotel room. The hostel is centrally located, just a few minutes' walk from Elephant and Castle tube station, making it easy to travel to anywhere in the city. The staff were incredibly friendly and always willing to help with any questions or concerns I had. The hostel itself is clean, stylish, and well-maintained, with comfortable beds and ample storage space in the rooms. Overall, I highly recommend Safestay London Elephant & Castle hostel for anyone looking for a comfortable, affordable, and centrally located place to stay in London.

London is an expensive, urban area with a lot of people priced out of the rental housing market. You're likely to meet a few of this group here.

JOHN

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Very nice but a little warm
The room was fabulous, it was GREAT having the shower and toilet in the room, and it was great having little curtains to provide privacy and cages under the beds for storage (make sure you bring a padlock). Plenty of power sockets near the beds too. The ONLY downside was that the room overlooked the courtyard and any one smoking outside meant that the room smelled mildly of smoke, and whilst I am sure it was possible I was unable to open the windows in the middle of the night when it got very hot as more and more bodies joined the room.
