Accommodation Details
Despite the crazy cheap prices there are lots of things to do here at the hostel too. There's the Moroccan style bar for drinks and larks and music, the restaurant for your meals, or a coffee shop for tea, pastries, snacks, sandwiches and suchlike. The hostel is big on entertainment and so come Thursday night's you can belt your lungs out at Karaoke night, or enter the weekly pool competition. There's also lots of arcade games and table tennis too. For some down time then you can wander into the TV room and take your pick form 100s of movies or flick through Sky TV. Self catering kitchens are also on each floor, and, as you might expect, there is an internet café for all your communication needs.

Room Information
Choose between sharing in a dorm or private rooms for a spacious sleeping area. And just because the 639 is so unbelievably cheap doesn't mean you will be crammed into busy dorms with lots of others - these dorms have a 6-8 person limit per room to ensure you get a good night's sleep. Each room has its own shower and sink, while there is a shared toilet on each floor.

Location
Located over on the western side of London, the hostel is very close to Notting Hill and all its delights and charms. And if you're here in the summer then you might just catch the carnival too, not that you'll be likely to miss it. For those that like to shop for titbits and cool clothes and shoes you're very near to Portobello Road and the markets. Also in the area is an array of bars and shops and places to eat. Otherwise, just jump on a tube or bus and lots of London's other hotspots and famous landmarks are close by: you've got Regent's Park; Hyde Park; Shepherd's Bush; Kensington; and the not-to-be-missed Camden Town. Slightly further afield on the tube or bus will bring you into Central London and all its attractions, venues and nightlife.
