Situated in London and within 2.4 km of London Bridge, Cricketers Hostel has a shared lounge, non-smoking rooms, and free WiFi. The property is around 2.4 km from Big Ben, 1.9 km from Waterloo Station and 2.6 km from Houses of Parliament. The accommodation features a shared kitchen and luggage storage space for guests. I appreciate for the laundry and they offer tides pod for free. They gave name stickers so we don’t take other people’s grocery by mistake. I borrowed their pen for writing my post card. Thank you !! I contact them on What’s App for the washroom clogged issue. The issue solved in 5 min. Which is great! It was a nice stay. Location was good too. Closed to attractions; grocery is 3 min walk. Closed to my friend’s place. I’m very satisfied with the stay. Will come back.

Set in London and with Brick Lane reachable within 1.4 km, Hostelle - women only hostel London offers a shared lounge, non-smoking rooms, free WiFi throughout the property and a terrace. The property is around 2.7 km from Liverpool Street Underground Station, 2.8 km from Victoria Park and 3.1 km from Tower of London. The accommodation features karaoke and a shared kitchen. I liked it all. The attention of the staff was excellent, the facilities were clean, comfortable and very good temperature and pressure in the showers. There was even a nice clean perfume in the corridors. The fact that it is a female-only hostel made me feel instantly comfortable and safe. The staff girls are super friendly and nice. I will definitely come back.
