The price was great. It was very convenient for our event at the Tower of London. The breakfast was very good value for money. All round an excellent overnight stay.

Mold in shower and unsanitary

I don’t typically post reviews but this experience wasn’t a great one. I have stayed here in the past and loved those experiences and had no issues as such. But the photos displayed show mold and these shower conditions left me feeling unsafe to continue sleeping and led me to check out early. When I spoke to the staff at the front counter about the incident not even as much an apology was issued for the uncleaned state of the bathroom. On top of this, I was there when the cleaning crew for the morning came in. The woman cleaning, didn’t even make an effort to clean or bleach the moldy shower. She came in threw some soap down and let the shower run for a few seconds before drying with a damp cloth and proceeded to do similar with other shared facilities in the room.

Satisfied Frequent Business Traveller...

I've stayed at Wombat's many times when visiting London for work, as it's just near my office... I've always been very satisfied with this place... It's fairly new, it's clean and comfortable, and the rooms are modern... The bathrooms are always great and the showers are nice and hot... The only thing I did not give Wombat's 5 stars on was "comfort", because sometimes the heaters in the rooms can be too hot, and it's difficult to get to sleep... Anyway, that would be my only complaint about Wombat's

Comfortable and Easy

I was recently on a trip that I ended up staying at multiple different hostels and this one was hands down the best for comfort. The location is a bit out of the way but easy enough to get to a train station or walk over towards Tower Bridge. But the room spacious as well as the ensuite shower and toilet. Having the lock box in the bed made it easy to have my phone and other belongings I wanted close right there. The bed was comfortable and the personal fan and bed shade were nice touches. I 100% would and will stay here again on my next visit to London.

It was my first time staying in a hostel and this was such an amazing stay! The rooms were clean and we had housekeeping everyday! This will be my go to spot every time I stay in London! It’s a fairly quiet are (minus your usually cars passing by) and the fellow residents are respectful when it comes to quiet time. There is a buffet for breakfast and it was quite enjoyable!

One broken lift and lack of shared toilets in the upper floors. In dorms with 4 occupants, queues for a single toilets in the morning is probably expected, not having shared ones can make life very difficult.

Amazing hostel! Very clean. Love the fact that you can have a curtain and lamp in each bed. One of the best hostels I have ever stayed! Totally recommend it.

Nice place. Loved locker in the room, which I hadn’t read in other reviews, so wasn’t expecting. Shower and toilet in room is convenient. Overall, pretty nice place.
