Very cheap hostel considering the very good location and free good breakfast. Sometimes I fell over recharging cables, I am very sorry for that. The internet was a bit slow, and during the evening times it was difficult to connect. The people in the hostel were very nice and I made many new friends.

Only stayed for one night, so I didn't have to use the shower which looked rather dirty (as well as the bathroom - although I've seen much worse). Otherwise everything ok for its price. Location is pretty good as well.

The worst thing in this hostel was the fact that the rooms had no ventilation, so the windows must be open. The only problema is that outside the street is very noisy. Beside that the hostel was ok.

Nice small Hostel, very close to King's Cross Station. The staff is nice and helpful. We had a 4 person room, which was quite small, but clean. The bathrooms (shower/toilet) were clean as well; none on the floor we were staying though, only two floors down (they are renovating I guess). The breakfast was rather minimalistic.

location near King's cross is great, loads of busses and underground lines nearby. Room and kitchen (very nice large one) were clean, bathroom unfortunatly not. Small rooms, with 1,80 m beds, so if your tall, that will be a problem.I didn't quite get it why there was music in the hall from app 8am -11pm. The walls are thin and you definitely need earplugs! Ask for a room away from the street, wich is busy and there's a club across the street. Nice for a few nights, not if you'd like to stay longer. It would be nice if all the staff could speak proper English.

i think that Clink261 is a good hostel for young people, students and children. The rooms are clean, kind staff, good position, (is near King Cross Station).

But the men's bathroom would be to renovate...

Well, despite of really good staff, I didn't like the way of beds are placed in rooms. You pratically will spleep with face to face to other people.

Good hostel, that's my advice for you, don't hesitate! Very cheap, London is not so expensive as we could think...

Staff is cool, it's clean, what do you want more? A great and stylish kitchen with a small living room, TV, computers.. ;) and breakfast is good too!

Thanks a lot, see you soon!

the worst thing was the cold in the rooms- I was freezing, but underneath the blankett I was sweating. Unfortunately little space for personal stuff and clothes, but the atmosphere was so warm and family-like. Breakfast man was the best!

the hostel is not in the best condition. in the baths some things are broken. but they try to keep it clean. they clean twice a day. the sheet seems not to be washed quite often. that was the worst. the people from the staff are nice and always try to help you. the position is excellent: 5 minutes away from king's cross. you can get known to interesting people there.

If you reservate a room with,for instance 4 beds and get confirmation on e-mail,it's not necessary that you'll get it when you come.There is no hot water,only cold.Everything else is ok.Have a nice stay in London and Ashlee house.

A good position, if you arrive at Stansted Airport, take Terravision for Liverpool station then take a bus for King's Cross and the hostel is right behind the bus station, just walk 200mt circa, and you're arrived

Quiet place, some personnel missing, not sure for the breakfast included, but it's cheap enough for its position, i went by foot for 5 days and had no problems, i went to regents park, hide park, russel square and so on, it's worth a buck!!

Excellent value for your money: the Ashlee house is easy to find, the dorm rooms are large, kitchen is large, common areas are groovy. Lots of different age ranges stay here, so its easy to meet people and find someone to share a beer with.

This was my first time in a hostel,but I was really suprised about the cleanliness of it,helpful staff,and good size lounge area and equipped kitchen. It was also really quiet at night. One thing,the showers for the girls were quite cold and the staff said it was normal.The boys had hot showers,but the bathroom was flooded with water.However,if you forget that,it is a really nice hostel.
