+ L'espace et la décoration des mobiliers me conviennent..

- J'ai pas apprécié l'accueil, et j'avais l'impression d'être là juste pour payer, il ont essayé de jouer avec mes émotions, lamentable .. Je crois que certains Hébergement d'accueil n'ont pas compris qu'on vient pour passer un bon séjour et pas que payé !! . L'impression d'être surveiller puis en cuisine je me sentais envahis , chaque geste que je fais étais imiter , energie démoniaque.. bref j'étais contente que le séjour c'est terminé je reviens jamais dans cet établissement déconseillé.. mais merci ça me rappel combien j'ai beaucoup plus de valeur que c'est personne la 😇

+ Very clean environment, clean buildings, clean room Clean kitchen

- I was told to go last floor with 5 years old with Obesity. No lift she go through all the steps which is very bad and I complain about this to the receptionist but nothing was done about it on our way check out coming to downstairs she fall down on the stairs case. 5 years old should not have place on the last floor it very risky. when I was booking I put her ahead of down on the form.

+ Good location; easy check in and out

- Too hot in the room, it must’ve been about 30°+ in there. Someone took my bed which meant I had to sleep without any covers on the top bunk. It was one of the worst stays and sleeps I’ve ever had

It was okay for a night. 3 bed bunk was very tight. Difficult to get in and out. Not enough room to sit up in bed. Bathroom was tiny as well. You get sheets to make your own bed.

Tried the four beds in suite bedrooms, was amazing. Clean bathroom. The sheets smell fresh ! Tried the 6 people bedrooms with collective bathrooms outside of the room, it would get dirty fast even though i could tell the cleaning was probably done twice a day. Sheets still smelled fresh in the bigger dortoir ;)

Decent for the price point, but there are better. Positive: - The location. Right next to Russel Square tube stop and most things are within an hours walking distance - Relatively cheap - The kitchen is open 24/7 (be mindful though, as night time is quiet hours) Negative: - Hard to navigate. It's a maze of identical corridors in there - The toilets. Most stink of urine and aren't clean - The rooms are warm - the smaller rooms are slightly less so but still uncomfortable

La ubicación del hostel es muy buena. En cuanto a las habitaciones, el baño y la ducha son muy chicas, las camas son chicas (1.80 maximo). El ambien del hostel lindo

Die Lage war für einen kurzen Aufenthalt wirklich super, das Personal sehr zuvorkommend. Allerdings war es während meines Aufenthalts extrem laut, sowohl morgens als auch abends, was sich sehr negativ auf den Schlaf ausgewirkt hat. Auch die Betten (3-stöckig) sind so wackelig, dass man von jeder Bewegung der anderen wachgerüttelt wird. Für 3 Tage für den Preis auszuhalten, aber ich würde eher nicht wiederkommen.

Quiet and close to the centre. The establishment is pretty clean in general, simple but cozy breakfast area, woth armchairs and books, nice to have the shower inside the dormitory.

There was no hot water in the shower. Staff didn't seem surprised or interested that this was the case

The breakfast offer was very poor and not to the standards we expected. We would have liked warm eggs (fried, scrambled, etc), fresh fruit and a bread grill to do your warm toasts. It was dissappointing to have to find somewhere else to have breakfast in the morning.

9 bed female dorm was terrible, there was no room between the beds and one couldn't even sit on the bed (because the one above was so low). the common areas were cold. Hot water in the showers only stayed for a few seconds then it was cold. I will say though, the toilets are very very clean.

triple bunks are never that great but for the price overall the hostel was very nice and fairly clean

Very small cramped rooms, be expected to have no room for luggage and your personal stuff especially when u have one tiny locker. Very close together with bedding you can hear and see everything even though you have curtains. Shower was so tiny with no where to put clothes to get changed with and toilet was okay. overall not great.

Dear Team at Smart Russell Square, I wanted to reach out and say thank you for another lovely stay. This was my second time visiting, and it truly felt like coming back to a familiar, comfortable home. Thank you for making my time in London so pleasant. See you again soon! Nila⁰

It was my first time staying at this place. The location is pretty good and overall experience was good as well. I had the highest bed so it got a bit hot during the night. Showers were pretty clean and enjoyable. The staff was also really nice. I will be back!

Everything was clean and the staff was great, even if I had to put my own sheets on the bed on the third bunk. I learned my lesson about big dorms, I think I would have enjoyed it more if I’d been in a smaller dorm. The bathroom was clean, but the water pressure and temp were inconsistent. Overall, it was good for one night, and it taught me a lesson about bigger dorms, particularly when I’m staying somewhere as a stopover.
