 A Typical Dormitory at Central Hostel London
 |
 |
When it comes to going to sleep at Central Hostel London, you will stay in a sparsely furnished and basic dormitory room, which you would expect anyway as it's so inexpensive. As you'll spend most of your time exploring London's tourist attractions and nightlife, this is all you need anyway! You can book a single bunk bed in a dorm that sleeps between 4 and 8 people here. When you wake up in the morning you'll find hot showers and clean toilets conveniently located close to your dormitory.

Central Hostel has a good location, 5 minute-walk from Hyde park. The receptionists are kind and helpful. The rooms are large. It is quite comfortable, I expected worse

Although the rooms in the hostel are fine, staffing issues really affected the quality of my stay. My booking, as well as at least one other lady's was lost, the hostel is not upfront about costs, such as the five pound key deposit, the fact that the deposit payed online is in addition to the nightly accommodation rate. I found the staff to be disinterested in their customers, and at times very unhelpful.

It was great, quite tidy , bed's were comfortable enough, didn't get breakfast though and you have to pay a £5 deposit for the key which you have to return the next day before 10 if you want your deposit back, but otherwise it was very convenient and near the tube station, a taxi to the West End only cost about £13 at 4 in the morning. I will definitely be using it again
