The most horrible thing was sleeping with men in the same Dom, i was told in the first place 🙃 just find out that they were men .i was like what? And since it was non refundable I just had to false myself in that condition. No privacy at all.

The price is what i liked but the efficiency of the staff during check in was way too slow. Everyone was waiting for at least 45 minutes before getting check in. Nevertheless, the key card does malfunction sometimes.

Nice place👍
I arrived after travelling to Woolwich as got off as bus stop outside hostel at at Christopher's to ask a friendly doorman how to get there after my night at the old gun pit I backtracked from swimming at Charlton lido coming back towards Greenwich an decided to give this hostel a go, I was in London for cocktail week rather month an stayed two nights.there was a Halloween do on in the bar when I got back night number two an the extremely capable girl organized a room was lovely as someone was in my bed space. I made my bed so it must've looked too tempting.the bedspace I went too was especially pleasant in contrast to the dorm. Showers roomy place to securely place possessions , with hairdryer mirror radiator an basin great get ready an go out . Clean outdoor smokers place. Staff ok genuine place an felt safe.

Nightclub = not optimal sleep
Most everything is ok except what a few others have mentioned, and seems the trend for another St. Christopher's I stayed at in Shepherd's Bush: There is a night club type bar that will probably keep you up on weekends, and some weekdays. This could be a good or bad thing, but since I appreciate a good night's rest, for me it was a bit annoying.

No Room at This Inn
I didn't get to stay there in spite of paying in full upfront. The "Manager" informed me that as I had no Official picture ID (Passport/Driving Licence) I could not stop there. This was in spite of 3 different forms of Picture ID (one a Disabled Rail Card) AND having pre-paid AND only for 1 night. BTW I am a UK citizen and it is not compulsory (yet) to have a Passport or a Driving Licence. Although it does state in their Term & Conditions about the "Official" Photo ID I did think the guy was being very Jobsworth bearing in mind I had 3 separate other kinds of photo ID. He seemed to think it was easy to fake them, whereas we all know Passports & Driving Licences are fraud proof (Lol). There was I left to trying to search round London for another hostel at 10.30 WITHOUT a mobile phone, I do not possess one, after my concert had finished. St. Christopher is the Patron Saint of Travellers but not if you don't have "Official" photo id - how would Jesus have coped as the story goes back to when St Christopher carried the little guy on his shoulders. I really do think some flexibility should have been granted as London can be a very dangerous place at the moment and not just because I am diabetic. I am actually recommending that Boris Johnson uses St Christopher training course so our British Border Force remain firm in insisting on Official documentation, no empathy whatsoever.

And I didn’t even talk about the drunk naked guy
When you are repairing your property you should tell people. I would never have stayed here if I knew the showers on my “floor” were under construction and unavailable for use; that a toilet (1 of 3) in the bathroom near me was constantly overflowing, making it difficult to wade through the run-off to use the other two (and yes I reported it); and to be woken up by workmen banging virtually right outside my door starting at 8:15 in the morning. Add to that, there were no plates or cutlery available at breakfast, the breakfast I had to repeatedly insist with reception that I had paid for and was entitled to have. This place needs to close until they get sorted out.

Warning loud music.
Good, friendly service; however the pub below and that manages the hostel played very loud music til late and made it not possible to sleep. Bathroom dirty, shower did not drain which is gross. Only small window in the roof for venting and virtually no light. The women’s room was cramped, hot, and dark. Tried ear plugs for the main issue which was the music didn’t help at all as the base was thumping through the walls. If you want to party and be up late, this might be the place for you. If you need to get a good night sleep, would not recommend. I have stayed in hostels and am sitting in a hostel in Edinburgh as I type that is nice and quiet. Maybe there was a warning about the music I missed, if not there should be. I understand hostel stays and have never had one like this.
