I liked how there was someone there 24/7, i love how every day there was cleaners that gave a quick wipe down in the bathroom and sweep of floor. The beds where spacious and comfortable especially as a bigger size female and alot of space in the room to store suitcases and bags under bed with small table and mirror in the room. The shower was excellent as you're able to turn it on and adjust the heating and shower head. There are some power sockets in the room I was staying there was two point by door and another two by the bed opposite me.
Honestly for the amount i paid it's the best room and best place i've stayed while being down near wembley. I would stay again if i'm still in the age bracket as sadly im quite close to the cut off but i would recommend it for anyone.

All the staff were friendly and helpful. Our 4 bedroom dorm was very clean and the bunk beds were comfy.
Tube station across the road and a direct bus to Wembley stadium. Very convenient and good value for money.

Avoid this hostel if you can. I do not recommed it
I stayed in a 6-bed dorm on Saturday night 4 May 2024. Everything went well untill i went downstairs to reception in the morning to seek help with booking a few more nights. I asked the girl on duty to help me identify the same dorm on the website because i wanted to stay in the same dorm and keep the same bed. Instead of helping me, she was very rude and unwilling to help. She told me that it was not her job and i should go to another hostel if i am not happy with her answer. This moody and grumpy girl is receiving a salary from an employer not to help him attract customers, but making them go away to another competitor. The manager of this hostel should review his recruitment process if he wants to stay in business as competition is very tight. I made a booking with another hostel in Hyde Park with much better facilities and free coffee and tea all day. Good luck!

4/10 Fair
21 April 2024
We survived the night, wouldn't repeat!
We (2 couples late 20s) stayed one night in a 4 bed room as just somewhere to sleep instead of like £300+ for hotels. If we were just talking about the bed and clean sheets, for £15 each can't complain did the job. However the shared toilets were stinking worse than any public toilets I've ever used, there was horrendous banging throught the whole night must have woken up atleast 10 times and we didn't go to bed until gone midnight anyway, I was also wearing earplugs! Window in our room was cracked and single glazing, lots of noise from the road, very run down. Stayed in better hostels in Thailand. Reception rude to my partner when he checked in, no need for that. I definitely would not return.
