Exactly what we expected for the price. We had an en-suite which was clean enough. Bedding was also clean. Really good location for the tube and pubs etc

I was very happy with the overall experience. I’m glad I was in the room I was in as it was in the quiet part of the building. It was a great price and very conveniently located to the station.

Works as a roof over your head in a great location
The room felt clean and was a nice place to come back to after a long day. It wouldn't be suitable for anyone looking for luxury but is totally fine as a roof over your head. We didn't end up using the kitchen facilities, but the bathroom facilities were all fine. There was noise around the place but usually only until around 10:30pm and then around 10am in the morning again, with only one time there was a lot of noise around 6am for about 20 minutes. But overall one of the quieter hostels I've been in! The lift is very very small, it says it can fit four people but at one stage I was in it with two others and it was super cramped. If you have a big suitcase or a wheelchair it might be tricky - although there could have been a bigger lift, we didn't ask! Also on accessability, just a note that the doors can be tricky to open from the inside, there's not a normal handle on it, it's like a little knob that you have to twist and could be hard to open! They also slam and that happens a lot but the noise didn't bother us, just a personal thing to gauge wherhter that would suit you or not. I felt safe there, but was with my male partner so I'm not sure how I would have felt as a solo female but probably fine once I'd settled in. It's just a few minutes walk from the Hammersmith station so the location. I would go back again if I needed to stay in London on a tight budget or had business in Hammersmith, but would probably splash out for a little nicer place if I had the money.

Not enough showers; sometimes missing warm water and not too clean toilets. Otherwise a good place to stay. The place is well located

On arrival at 8pm was told isn’t wasn’t possible to check in and needed to wait as the manager had gone to the shop, by the time the manager arrived back with primark bag in hand the reception area was full of people wanting to check in or collect luggage. What is the point of leaving someone to man the reception area who has limited English and couldn’t actually help anyone

This was my first experience with a hostel. It was a clean and seemingly well kept property. I felt safe in the neighborhood and in my room. The biggest drawback was one of four roommates was inconsiderate of the others in the room turning on the light and leaving it on as she ran in and out of the room.

Abercorn House is a very basic hotel with shared toilets and bathrooms which was a shock to me. However the staff are very pleasant and the cleanness was excellent. The location is great for the underground station. The hotel was cheap compared to others but you get what you paid for. I would use this hotel again

OK as a bed for the night, but very no frills
Stayed overnight and certainly only qualified for two stars - comfortable enough, clean sheets and helpful staff. Beds on wheels without headboards moved around the room as you got in them, shower head very crusted with limescale, thin door to the room let lots of noise through.

My wife and I stayed in a room of this place for one night. Room was so small and wasn't match with the photos shown on website. No table or chair was available in the room despite showing on photos of website. No flip-flops was provided so you can't take a shower! Cups and dishes put in the room were so dusty! It was a quiet place to sleep though. Receptionists weren't helpful and their behaviour wasn't respectful at all. All in all, we paid 80 pounds for a night and the value of service we received doesn't worth it at all so that the highest rate we can give to the value of service for our money is 2 out of 5. We don't recommend this place for yoir journey to London.

Property was clean and in a good location however it did not have the parking availability we were lead to believe. We found it very noisy with guest slamming doors a and making a fuss all night, the rooms are very small and the bedding while clean was very ordinary.

Our first morning here we exited our room and there was just piles of sick in the hallway. The communal toilets were also full of sick and not cleaned to an acceptable standard. The showers were of such poor quality it felt almost impossible to get clean. On our second night, someone knocked on our door demanding ID at 11:30PM claiming that we did not belong in our room. This behaviour made us afraid to stay there. They didn’t even come back to the room to inform us that everything was actually fine, and nobody apologised.
