    I enjoyed the whole process. There are no obvious flaws in this. If i had to get nitpicky, i'd guess that their external signage could be more direct.

    I have stayed before - it is a very central, very affordable and reasonable space. The staff are friendly and the process is very clear to use the pods.

    The bag room could have been a little bigger. But i'm not going to complain because they allow you to store your bags for free.. such was awesome

    The first night I stayed in a 6 bed mixed room. The second night I stayed in a 11 bed women's room.. It honestly wouldn't have mattered either way. I never saw anyone and people are very respectful and quiet at night. Your little pod is so comfortable.. Slept well.. Staff couldn't be nicer and the location right in Parliament square is perfect.. Ending my trip the last night there as well ..wouldn't stay anywhere else

    Being in the city center, it can get loud outside at night, even with earplugs. Staff also threw out about 20 british pounds worth of my properly labeled food over a period of two days, leaving me with no breakfast or lunch ingredients.

    The entire place was clean, well located, comfortable, and had great but small, kitchen and laundry facilties.

    The only thing i may have an issue with was the lil' charging station you get at your pod. It's not like the hostel can do anything about it cause there's even a sticker that explains that it's just fire safety regulations and there was a couple regular wall sockets right in front of the bed but it was still kind of annoying, specially cause mine for some reason kept heating up and it started to freak me out. Still worth it.

    it was so shockingly clean? Not that i was expecting a dirty place or anything but it was actually cleaner than a lot traditional hotels i've stayed in. Also the wifi was insanely good, even in the lower floors, not a single issue. And as a bonus treat the guy who gave us the free tour (James) was insanely sweet <3

    The store your luggage room if you arrive early needs to be bigger. I had to rearrange part of the closet to get mine and someone else’s luggage in. Wall shelves around the room may be more expedient.

    Staff and guests were very kind and courteous to each other. Meals were s deal. The bed and pod was very comfortable. Loved that there was an elevator for transporting luggage.

    Nothing. Compact pod as expected

    The staff were very friendly and helpful. The pod had everything I needed and other people in room were quiet and considerate. We were able to open a window for extra fresh air, and fans were available on request but not needed, although I can imagine they would be used in warmer months. Breakfast was great, porridge with a good choice of toppings and a pot of tea got £5. Everything was clean. There was a laundry as well if needed

    Easy walk from the train station and tucked into an alcove off a busy street. Lots of choices for meals surrounding the property. I’m in my mid 60’s and felt completely at home here. It was quiet inside (street noise was loud but that’s not their fault) and everyone-staff and guests-were respectful and kind. The facilities were spotless and the pods were a great alternative to the usual hostel bunk beds. The pods had lights, a shelf, a hook and a USB plug for phone charging. The mattress was comfortable and the linens were good quality. Didn’t stay for breakfast but it looked good and was reasonably priced. Overall a great experience.
