For the price I got much more than I bargained for considering it is so close to Gatwick. Comfortable, clean. Decent breakfast. Pick up and drop off t airport included, although I did have to wait half an hour for the pick up from the airport. I would suggest staying here is you are getting a flight to/ from Gatwick.

The staff was rather nice and even allowed us to print our boarding passes fro no cost in their office. If flying in or out of Gatwick and needing a location to stay, this is an inexpensive option that worked out nicely for us.

The staff was rather nice and even allowed us to print our boarding passes fro no cost in their office. If flying in or out of Gatwick and needing a spot to stay, this is an cost-effective option that worked out properly for us.

+ Close to Gatwick airport, free shuttle avail, cheap. - Commanding & non-friendly tone. Outdoor area almost not held at all. Garbage spread around the area. Temperature regulator in shower is not safe.

Location is fantastic for the airport, really close to the train. Only bad point was the shower changing temperature each and every few seconds as properly as the bathroom feeling like a port-a-loo. Room itself was smallish but comfortable. Free wifi.

I have stayed at a lot of hostels and this place was the worst for service. This is one of few negative feedbacks that I have left. They were rude as soon as I walked in the door. I tried to pay with money and they would not give me a receipt, then I tried to pay with Visa and they said they would just bill my credit card from the reservation so it will be a surprise as to what the bill will be. It was like pulling teeth to get them to drop me off at the airport even though they state that there is certainly free shuttle service to the airport. They tried to get me to take the train. Breakfast was just cereal and toast contrary to their description on this website. You would be waisting your time and money if you stay here.

Nearness to the airport. it is quite neat and homely. and the general setting surrounding the place impressed me a lot. the services are fabulous. it is worth being recommended to friends.

We were at the breakfast room at 8:50 on a Sunday morning but were told that we are too late for the breakfast! so it is noiseless inconvenient for us if not for the several and the stuff wasnt the most helful either.

That is was quiet and warm. This opportunity for feed-back is appreciated. But it is disappointing that Hostelbookers is evidently only interested in what visitors liked.
