Hostelworld says

If you?re looking for a spot that?s as central as possible, then Walrus is going to be hard to beat. It?s just a short walk from popular tourist attractions such as the London Eye, Houses of Parliament and Westminster Abbey, making it an ideal location to explore the city from. But it?s not just a great location the hostel offers, it also provides guests with free WiFi and plenty more. There?s also a pub on the ground floor offering affordable drinks where you can meet fellow travellers and locals alike.

Perfectly fine as a hostel if you're a heavy sleeper. Location is a good central area, but it's right next to train tracks. Thankfully, I was waking up early anyways, but it's almost impossible to sleep after 7am once the trains start running (they do provide earplugs though). Perhaps I had set my expectations too high after past hostels, but there was significantly less hostel-programming and activities offered, making it less social than other hostels I've been to. Good for the price though.

Really friendly staff, there's everything one could need. A bit loud because of the vicinity of the railway and of the hospital
