I don't have much to say, just every toilet needs to at least two toilet roll, because I find it difficult before I get toilet roll to used.

I'd paid for a female room, they put me in with a bunch of men. They did move me when I asked but then I had to move out the next night to another room. The bathroom door didn't close properly let alone lock. It was above a bar that played loud music well into the night and people were starting loud brawls into the early hours. Sirens constantly and they were doing some demo in the hostel at 9pm while I was trying to sleep. They said they provided towels on the website but didnt and the showers had a LOT of mould and some had very little pressure. The breakfast choices weren't bad though I will give them that - there were eggs, bread, pastries, fruit, cereal etc. for you to make yourself what you wanted. All in all a place to lay your head if you're really trying to go cheap but there are a lot better options out there.

We are glad you enjoyed our breakfast offering, wish this was reflected by your rating, our Team is rather confused though, according to our records you stayed in a females only dormitory for the duration of your stay. With all due respect, the pub next door is managed by a separate business we have no control or purview over their event schedule, patrons or noise levels, the potential for noise on our lower floors is prominently disclosed on across our online presence, sirens are a regular feature in any global city, as much as we'd like to we have no power over them or any other external factor, guests whom have a sensitivity to these can ask for an upper floor relocation (subject to availability) or earplugs (available for free), towels are provided upon request at reception, we are not experiencing any shortages, your best course of action would have been to ask at Reception. Our showers are regularly checked for mold, we do not currently have any such issue, had you notice anything, it would have been your duty to report it. "Better" option would be 40% to 200% more expensive, if people can afford them and are willing to spend the surplus they should definitely consider those.

The photos posted on internet have nothing to do with the reality. First of all, they made us wait for 45 minutes for the check in. In addition the conditions of the bedroom, the bathroom and the common areas were dreadful. I do not recommend this hostel at all

False advertising
I chose this hostel because of the availability and the price. You definitely get what you pay for. The place was disgusting and smelled awful. The beds had mold on them and there were bugs throughout the property. There was one outlet in the room for four people. There was one shower and it was clean for the most part. I would not stay here again. On top of all of that, it’s located above a bar/nightclub that plays loud angry music and it’s very difficult to focus on anything or get to sleep. Disappointing.

Mouses and Rats 🐀 Hostel
Rats in the hotel and mouses in the room. Makes this place the most terrible and worst place in london. Pub downstairs will shake your room at bed until 3am while police doesnt stop during the night, then lots of noises outside. PLUS SUPER DIRTY FACILITIES. Shame i cant add the videos so you can heard the noise and see more details about this hotel. I have asked the hotel for refund but no responses so i think to help future guests ,this place needs health & safety visit for sure

The reception desk lady is nice. However, the staff is not friendly and not responsive to your requests. The place is run down, not in a good area, and there was a terrible smell inside the rooms and building. I even found a rat at the kitchen. I am used to being in hostels while traveling but this was the worst one. Please save yourself your sanity and money and book somewhere else.

Nobody care about you during your stay. The staff was mostly unfriendly and smoked weed outside of the building. Place for junkies etc. Never again.

Hi We think your comments are a little unfair. We live in a residential area, and unfortunately we cannot stop non guests from sitting outside the hostel in a public space. But at no time have the staff smoked as you suggested Regards NX Inn

Hi Sorry to hear you didnt enjoy your stay But we are slightly confused as we do not have a bar on the 1st floor. The pub is next to the hostel but is currently closed due to Covid Restrictions. So we do not understand your comments. Regards NX Inn

Great service, saved me with a last minute booking
For the price this is a very good hostel! I came in with a last minute booking around midnight because my other hotel was closed due to covid-19. The amazing staff were very welcoming even tho I came in that late. The hostel is old so you can see that its worn out and walls are dirty but beds are comfortable and clean. There is free breakfast, toast, eggs, cereal etc.
