    I didn't really mind staying here one night, but not sure if I'd stay more. Really, the only reason is that the people staying there were really odd and I felt extremely uncomfortable around them. So in short, the thing I didn't like about this place were the travelers.

    My favorite HI hostel in London. Great location in a park. Love walking out in the morning, with birds singing and people walking their dogs.

    Bunk beds are too small and very congested. this is very different from other hostels where bunk beds are only for two people instead of three in holland park.

    I really liked this place,lovely location and very convenient for Olympia where I was attending a workshop. It's looking tired and dated now but was perfectly clean and there were excellent showers. It was difficult to sleep as people arrived throughout the night, perhaps I was just unlucky with my timing. I would certainly use it again.

    The watertabs in bathrooms were not ok! The flow was very hard and easily got on clothes and well, everywhere! I also prefer when hot and cold water are mixed together and not in one tub each. Showers were better but still difficult to control the flow and also the heat - there has to be a max temperature to avoid burning one self!!
