pretty good for a hostel, good staff
Pretty good for a hostel. Customer service was pretty good, staff was helpful. It was a LITTLE bit dirty at times, but nothing terrible. There was a lot of people going in and out so it probably couldn’t be helped. Good location in Kings Cross, about 5 minutes walk from train station.

This is such a great hostel, it was always so clean and my bed was so comfortable. The rooftop is so much fun to hang out on and it has free gym passes which was a nice bonus. Definitely recommend
