Smart Hyde Park Inn

The location is good. 3 minutes walk to Hyde park and the Central line. The staff is nice.

The rooms were not great. There was a lot of people in them. I don't mind that but there is no space to put your stuff so everything ends up on the floor, and it gets very full. Also, the kitchen is far from enough to accomodate all guests. At the very least, they need another fridge. And if you are going to be so strict with labeling stuff, provide a marker. Also, some rooms don't have a window so the smell can build up.

In a good location near hyde park. Close to underground and bus station. Clean enough. There are curtains in bed so you have your personal space. Close to markets, you can buy food easily.

Shared kitchen: but not allowed in some hours!! 07:00-10:30, 15:00-15:30 so you cannot use kitchen in breakfast hours. Breakfast from hostel 2£/day and not satisfying. Coffee, bread, jam and cornflakes. Lockers but you can’t use your padlock as it’s electronic and has to be defined to your room key 1£/day Laundry total 5£ I stayed one week in three floored bunk beds base floor and I always hits my head up. There is very limited space in the refrigerator. Kitchen has no shared shelf, you have to buy everything you need. Hostel only give salt, nothing else. Only a plug in the beds. It would be better to add an usb plug, a light and a little shelf near it. My 9 bed room was too small to move. Also the bathroom in the room was too small you can hardly move in it. Not so friendly(warm). I stayed in another hostel after this hostel. That hostel was much comfortable than this hostel with same price.
