St Christophers Village - Southbank

EL Village es un hostal a mi parecer mucho mejor de lo que la gente podria imaginar.. tiene un servicio excelente, toda la gente es super amable y currantes, habia gente que estaba a las tantas de la manana ahi currando y al dia siguiente los primeros currando para darnos el desayuno, un desayuno por cierto que servian asta las 10 pero sin limite, unas tostadas y un vasito de te, chocolate, zumo... cualquier cosas a esas horas sentaba bien. La limpieza la verdad es que no me puedo quejar, no era la perfecta pero hay algo perfecto?? Los banos super limpios, tres veces al dia limpiaban. Ya por ulitmo las habitaciones, a pesar de que la primera noche me toco un poco de olor a alcohol, luego todo fue diferente jejeje. jamas pense que en londres con una sola manta no pasaria frio, sino q calor, hasta tal punto de querer quitarme la manta y todo... Por ultimo ya decir que si quieres diversion y variedad cultural y racial pues ves al Village que ahi lo encontraras. Por cierto todos los dias a las 10 de lamanana sale un autobus gratuito que recorre bastantes puntos de la city. La zona es genial muy muy cerca de todo... ASi que yo no tengo pegas.

This hostel is more or less what you can expect from a St Christopher's London hostel: the staff can vary from very nice and helpful to rude, the room are basic and always look like the need to be renewed, the bathrooms are acceptable, cleaniness is not bad.

The atmosphere is however nice, with many international travellers and the Belushi bar at the ground floor (which is open until late night, so it's good for some food or a last pint).

This hostel is located between London Bridge and Borough tube station, so it's in a good location as you can walk to Tower Bridge, City, Tate Modern, etc. The place is nice during the day, but I didn't feel safe walking around the area at late night, even though it's probably safe.

Have you been to University or College? And there's always at least that one dorm/rez that all about the party? This place is it. Don't expectfrills. I have serious doubts the matress sheets were clean, and the Duvet cover - no chance they changed those. There is a bar downstairs and that pretty much sums this place up. They describe it as a party hostel, and while you can get away with staying there without the party, don't be surprise. Pluses for the neighbouthood, it's close to the Tate Modern, the Globe, and only a 15 minute walk to Waterloo station where you hop on the Eurostar.
