Very close to Borough station and bus is very accessible. The pub attached as well is fantastic. However the property was a bit dirty and outdated. The toilet facilities weren’t great and had a foul stench. Overall okay if you’re just sleeping and getting around without spending much time in there.

The second floor washing facilities are horrible, no place to store gear, no hanger, push buton for water and curtain for the shower door. Seriously though to change location after the first shower. No electrical outlet near my bed, the only bed without one in the room.

There is sort of an abnormal odour at the entrance of the hostel which needs to be taken care of. Heating condition in room should be better. Too cold in the room

The staff was amazing and the location was really good. Accross the street from the underground. I was able to take to underground straight to the airport practically to the door step. Breakfast in the morning was nice to have and saved me a lot of money. It is definitely a little worn down and you get what you pay for but the amenities were worth it. Wi-Fi was a little hit and miss. Good 20 minute walk to a lot of amazing locations. If you didn’t want to take the underground.

The main thing I liked about the hostel was that it had a 24 hour reception. I arrived just after midnight and had to leave early in the morning so it was handy to have a real person there to check me in and out.

I enjoyed my stay at Dover Castle Hostel -- the price is right for a quick visit into London... but don't expect any fluff! ;-) I recommend!

On the whole it’s OK
Great location, staff are very helpful and it’s the cheapest hostel in this area. The mattress that was in my bed was old and saggy in the middle, which made for an unpleasant nights sleep. The place could really do with a freshen up as all the facilities seem to be well used. Aside from that I would recommend it, and have just booked my second stay there.

Beds were not comfortable. And hard to sleep with the street noise and pub noise below. Location is good as it is fairly accessible to see various things around London
