When I was in London I stayed there in the youth hostel called Perfect Park in. Located in the center of London (directly next to Hyde park) on Queensway tube station it's very convenient to get to other places. With free wifi in the communal area and flat screen tvs it's very comfortable there. You meet a lot of friendly people and for the price of 13 pounds per night it's quite cheap for London. On the other hand i had to share the room with 17 other people, but it sounds worse than it was. And I almost forgot to mention - after having checked out I noticed that I had forgot my precious Vacheron Constantin watch in the dormatory. But against all odds it was still there, so kudos to the people and staff there for not taking! So thumbs up from me.
Indeed . I think i forgot to mention that breakfast was included, although it's not really worth mentioning. White bread with butter and tasteless conrflakes with milk, but at least something.
Strange because hostels generally are fairly basic in terms of furnishings. As for it being perfect for students, that may be so for foreign students but it would be far too expensive for our cash-strapped undergrads.
You were staying in a 13 pounds a night hostel and you were carrying and forgot about a watch where the prices start at around £10,000. Seriously? I think this is just a clever back link post to get the Vach... Const.... name mentioned.
