The toilets could be better supplied and clean on more regular basis. The room was attended/ tidied up just once a week..! Unacceptable.

Nice place to stay for the money

If you’re looking for a place to rest your head at night, then this place is perfect. There’s no thrills or frills but for the price it’s great.

10/10 Exceptional

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.

Good size room and location. It was quiet.
Gita, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

This property is cheap for a reason. Initially I thought it was reasonable since I just needed a bed after a gig, nothing fancy. But the kitchen was really inadequate with the fridge in a lounge on the opposite side of the building. It's very unclean and very few utensils. I was in a dorm of six and there were only two plug sockets. The door locks felt like they might snap off. There's a sign when you enter saying "online bookings don't guarantee a place" so be careful with your plans. To top it all off I've come home covered in bites.

Great location and it’s exactly what you pay for

Stayed for a concert at Wembley and this was perfect location, easy to get to and from even late I’m not sure what some of the people on here are moaning about, it’s less the £20 per person so it’s more there expectations that need adjusting then the hotel/hostel itself
Jonathon, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The entire building was kept well-maintained and the environment was comfortable. There is security available 24 hours a day, so you can rest assured. The kitchen is fully equipped and you can enjoy beautiful views of London.
