Valentino was a great host!
Valentino at the Dover Castle really helped a lot, super friendly guy who helped me get a 3 night stay last minute, due to evacuation of another hotel. He was very helpful and very positive, hard to find in a guy in London. So a massive thank you to him and his hard work there.

The guy at the reception is very rude! I don’t know why is he working there if he don’t like it! They were painting the hostel so noise and terrible smell in the rooms and hallways!

Very close to Borough station and bus is very accessible. The pub attached as well is fantastic. However the property was a bit dirty and outdated. The toilet facilities weren’t great and had a foul stench. Overall okay if you’re just sleeping and getting around without spending much time in there.

6/10 Good

Average at best
I read good reviews about this place which is the main reason I booked. However, they have a few fundamentals wrong. No storage for your belongings! No soap in the toilet next to my room. No curtains on the window next to the bed I was sleeping in. No socket at the bed to charge my phone. Do not stay here if you have heavy luggage, I was constantly helping people up and down the stairs with theirs. Apart from that it’s ok. I wouldn’t stay again. I wouldn’t discourage people to stay though.

The second floor washing facilities are horrible, no place to store gear, no hanger, push buton for water and curtain for the shower door. Seriously though to change location after the first shower. No electrical outlet near my bed, the only bed without one in the room.
