It's what you'd expect from a budget hostel - the room/bed was very cramped, and there was only one sink in the shared bathroom. Towels aren't provided so make sure you bring your own (or you can hire one for £4).

Friendly and clean, fun decor, great location and easy to check in/out. You can leave your luggage there after check out at no extra cost, which was really helpful.

The pillows in my sleeping compartment could be a little softer and fluffier. That’s the only complaint I have.

It was interesting sleeping in a dormitory that felt like a Japanese capsule hotel. The breakfast was good. Finally, it was nice to do my own laundry, and not pay a fortune for it!

There was only 1 sink in the women’s bathroom which meant you had to line up to wash your hands. There’s no bench at the sink either so you have to hold your things.

The location is the best part. It’s only a 5 minute walk to Kings Cross/St Pancras. There’s a bunch of restaurants and stores surrounding the hostel.

Street noise during the week is quite loud. shower pressure was a bit low.

Fantastic location right by St Pancras/Kings Cross lots of restaurants nearby easily walk to Camden and to Leicester Square and the surrounding attractions too. Caitlin at the desk was awesome!

The overall ambiance of the hostel is aged, with dated equipment and a musty smell. I'm looking forward to seeing the new renovations!"

The location is excellent, conveniently close to Kings Cross station. However, the room feels outdated. The ladder to the bunk beds is uncomfortable and tough on the feet, and the lockers provided are too small.

The bed was not made, there linen was fresh but had some spots from of food? The pods are good, but can get warmer and stuffier, so you had to turn on the fan which is a bit noisy. In general very manageable though

Good location, cheap. The sleeping pods are brilliant, much better than common bunk beds

This is a hostel, so not much was expected. However, the place has a lot of shortcomings. Just one bathroom per floor (and that bathroom only had 1 sink and 2 stalls). The bathroom was incredibly small and tight. It also reaked of urine. I stayed in the pods which offered some privacy, however there was very little ventilation and the whole room smelled like feet.

The hostel is in a great place. Literally steps away a from a major underground station.

Good location. Have a kitchen in the basement which allow solo travelers to meet. Had a good time there.

A very welcoming & friendly reception. For me It was a good value base for the night before travelling early on the Eurostar, very close to King’s Cross.

Lack of shower room for girls on G/F/ As I am only staying 1 night, I am unsure how the other floors are. The G/F has 1 room with 3 showers; one was occupied, and the other had no water. The sink in the dorm is not necessary, and annoyed, as people use it at different times in the morning, the noise when you are still asleep. ( I saw a girl washing clothes and belongings in the dorm!), The sink in the room should be banned/ shut the tap. This hostel needs to pay an extra 2 pounds for the reservation of a lower bed, which I never seen this in another country

The bed is clean. 24-hour reception, the area is located at King Cross, and safe to stay, Quiet dorm except for someone using the sink in the room.

I've been coming to clink for years, and honestly, it is getting worse. - no more nice sofa downstairs to chill - after a year still no hot water in one of the female showers on the second floor - There are not a lot of showers for a lot of people, and since they get cleaned only once a day, they are very dirty 99% of the time. But the weird people is my biggest problem. A lot of hostels in London accomodate working crew. This means that this are guys who are working on buildings around London, and sleep in hostels. This gives quite a weird vibe. I always chose Clink, because it was the only hostel where I never had this experience, until this year. There was also a homeless man staying in our room for my complete stay. This also gives quite the weird vibe. One guy was superagressive, but they immediately blacklisted him. So they handled that very well. All in all, you don't get a real travellervibe anymore in the hostel, and it might just become to expensive for what you get.

Location is good and beds are okay.

Stayed in a private room. It's great value in a sense, but if doors slamming loudly every 5 seconds would disturb you, probably pass on it. Doesn't work well with me, with the hearing disorder I have is all. Others will probably be alright.

Room was very narrow. There is not space to move. There could be lots of traffic loud at the morning but it could be handled with earplugs.

Location is good, approx ten min to King’s Cross train station. There a free luggage room, you can put your baggage before or after your stay. Desk is online 7/24 and you can do late check-in. We have done at 1.30 am. Stuff are helpful

The capsule has a curtsin rod so poorly fixed it keeps collapsing. The bunk beds in the women's dorm were more comfortable. But they are tiny and awfully cramped. Feels like a fire hazard as well.

The spaces to chill were plenty and comfortable. But there were limited times they were available. Staff there are very friendly especially Jess from Australia who was a lovely, cheerful and kind soul. I thibk people make an organisation. She certainly made me feel welcome and comfortable. The showers are small but clean. Too small, typical of Central London. Sinks need to be bigger. You can do some self laundry, but the dryer does not work. Please fix it. The breakfast is decent at £5.50.

The location

Toilet was very small for amount of people in dorms but ok. Electric door key never worked properly so had to keep keying number in manually on dorm 2. No hooks around bed to hang clothes

Friendly helpful staff. Clean and bright rooms.Great location very close to St Pancras and King's Cross Stations. Bed was comfortable, lockers were just about big enough for rucksack. Good value breakfast.

Mattresses are likely never turned after each guests stay. Very thin and have a permanent dip/sunken bit in the middle.

Great location- couple minutes walk to Kings Cross underground. Buses to Islington and Camden markets on the doorstep. Staff were wonderful and helpful, had good suggestions and travel knowledge themselves.
