We stayed at the Clink Hostel for 3 nights in May. Rooms are very reasonable priced and you have a choice between
-single/double/triple en suite by room
-dorms from 4 to 16 beds both en suite or not
Booking is possible on www.clinkhostel.com and hostelworld.com - I heard it's also possible to do it via phone. Booking was quick and easy.
The location close to Kings Cross is great. Within Zone 1/2 on the underground it is easily reachable. At King's Cross you can get the following tubes: Northern Line (Black), Metropolitan Line (Dark Red), Circle Line (Yellow) and Hammersmith and City Line (Pink).
From the tube station to the hostel it's a 5min walk. WE found the hostel easy to find and the location quite central. The quick connection between King's Cross and Camden town was a huge plus point.
Plus points:
-free walking tour ...
Advantages: Cheap, clean rooms, excellent location, friendly staff Disadvantages: Check out by 10:30am, you have to make your own bed?
The Piccadilly Backpackers Hostel known on the sign as simply picadillybackpackers is probably the cheapest place to stay in London. (Excluding prostitute infested ?hotels? that charge by the hour in Kings Cross that is).
Located on Sherwood Street just one minute from Piccadilly Circus tube the hostel is right in the heart of London within walking distance of anywhere in the West End really and so close to the tube station if you need to go anywhere further a field you?ll have no problems.

Sleep at the station and wait a few hours till the first train in the morning or risk getting an expensive minicab.
Well in ...
Advantages: Good way to see London Disadvantages: Dirty and old
One of the busiest transport networks in the entire world is based right here in London.
Its common name is "the Underground" a name adopted in the 1930's along with its famous Red circle and Blue stripe through.
Yet the tube network was started much earlier in the late 1800's.
The underground was a complex maze of tunnels constructed deep underground to solve the transport problems that were beginning to affect London.
Lack of space was an issue above so the answer was found below.
One of the lines that runs deep underground is called the Central Line. It is the most heavily used by commuters and tourists alike. It appears on the map as a Red line running through London from side to side.
Im going to explain all of the stations in this opinion and will take you on a journey along the line from East to West.
Firstly, I ...
