Fabulous”
This was the best stay in London I have ever had and I've stayed in a few hostels. Excellent on all fronts - I love the area so for me the location didn't matter. For some they might prefer a more central location but you compromise on the quality of the hostel in my opinion and what is a tube journey - easy lines and running till after the showtimes.

Perfect location ”
Couple of days in London seeing the sites, the yha has a great location and great staff, really need a good clean tho, especially in the bathrooms, lots of mold, really lets the place down.

Dear James, Thank your or your lovely review, we'll be consulting our housekeeping team to see what it can be done about it. We hope you enjoyed your time over in London. Best wishes, Wilson Henriques Duty Manager
Returned late night and found my bed taken!”
The hostel is good, each 12-bedded room has two individual shower areas and two toilets, there are plenty of both inside the room (remember to bring your own locks) and a number of lockers in the lobby for use after check-out, the restaurant has decent selection of food. However, the hostel is fairly full and they have overallocated people in one room that I ended up having to find another room to sleep in having found no empty bed when I get back one late night.

Dear Ho, Thank you for leaving such a lovely review about our hostel, it's great to see that we met your expectations. Please accept our apologies regarding the confusion you encounter when checking in into your room, we'll be looking into detail what cause the problem to avoid this things from happening again but sometimes people do tend to change beds in the room which creates problems as they don't let reception know of this changes. Glad our staff managed to resolve the problem efficiently. We hope you had a good time over in London. Best wishes, Wilson Henriques Duty Manager

Hi Ahmed, Thank you for your lovely review. We have an option for late checkout which is at 12pm, we only ask our guests for a fee of £5 if it is a private room or £2 if the costumer is sharing in a dormitory. We look forward to accommodate you in the near future. All the best, Wilson Henriques YHA London Thameside
Short but good”
I didn't stay for long time, but the bed linnen and bathroom/toilet were all clean (something I find VERY important!). I arrived after midnight, but could still check-in, which I really appreciated. Friendly staff member helped me with my questions about transportation for the next day. I'd go there again. Easy access to the centre of London via public transport.

Our WiFi it's only available in the communal areas which are on the ground floor and basement we'll be looking into the possibility of extending the signal to the upper accommodation floors at some point.

Dear Harish, Thank you so much for such positive review. Rotherhithe Overground Station it's a 5min walk as it is Canada Water Tube Station as well, there's also a bus stop right in front of our hostel with buses that take you to Victoria and Trafalgar Square and goes also through The Houses of Parliament, Buckingham Palace, Waterloo and London Bridge. We hope to have you back in the near future. Best wishes, Wilson Henriques YHA London Thameside
awkward design of dormitory”
I tried to contsvt customer support. I didn't know that the full amount had been paid for by my credit card and the YHA actually asked me to pay a outstanding amount. I only realized that I made a duplicate payment. Can kindly advise if agoda refund me the money? The dorms were pretty worn-down and the shower is poorly designed. Water splashes out of the shower area, making it a very uncomfortable shower experience. My bed is aligned in a strange angle and there is limited power point for charging mobile phone.

Dear Suzi, Sorry if you were double charged, this mistakes don't usually happen so please accept our apologies, if the issue still pending please contact us asap. There's one power point per bed plus a USB charger per bed also in each room plus few extra electrical sockets. If that particular shower was giving you problems we could have put you in a different room with a better shower had we know you were experiencing problems, please if you choose to stay with us next time make sure you come to reception to let us know case you experience any issue. Our maintenance manager will be having a look into that. Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience you experienced. Best wishes, Wilson Henriques Duty Manager

Above average”
The hostel has many young teenagers staying when we were there and they were very noisy & inconsiderate. There is a bar across the street which loud patrons were screaming from throughout the night. We didn’t enjoy our stay and wouldn’t return.

No towels in rooms and nothing about it in the web side. Renting towels is for 2 pounds plus 5 pounds deposit. There is a family kitchen but smell there is terrible.

We rent towels for £2 each and this is to cover our cleaning/replacement costs that way we keep our accommodation prices as low as possible. We will be monitoring the self-catering kitchen, apologies for the inconvenience. Kind regards, Wilson Henriques YHA London Thameside

Dear Terrance, Thank you for reviewing our property. We are sorry we didn't fulfil your expectations, our location seem to be liked by many of our costumers, there's other YHA's more central to this one that you might enjoy so keep that in mind if you would like to book with us. We hope you had a good time over in London. Best wishes, Wilson Henriques Duty Manager
Buena calidad a buen precio”
Estuvimos en una habitación compartida de 6 camas con baño privado. Como éramos 2 adultos y 3 niños, no pusieron a nadie mas. La habitación limpia y lo justo para dormir después de patear la ciudad. El metro más cercano Canadá Wáter a 5 minutos andando. Si no queréis andar tenéis autobús en la puerta. No hay toallas en el baño, debes de llevarlas tu. Sino quieres llevarlas en recepción las alquilan por 2 libras cada una. En resumen lo recomiendo 100%

Buen lugar”
Buena recepción 24 horas, aunque sólo un recepcionista hablaba castellano. Todos muy amables y atentos. Frío seguro que no pasarás, puesto que está todo muy bien aislado. Camas cómodas (que es lo más importante), y vecinos de habitación respetuosos con los ruidos de noche. Gran idea disponer gratis de agua filtrada en la recepción. A 10 minutos del Overground, y 15 minutos del Underground. Recomendado
