The hostel in swiss cottage was very nice. Shared a dorm with about 14 other girls some of which were travelling alone, which i found really cool. Met a girl called Heather from Canada who was alone and doing the Europe trip. She seemed really nice however she did have one bad point. She kept me awake for most of my stay with her ridiculously loud snoring! Total fog horn under my bunk. The area was easy to navigate and it was only a short tube ride to the centre of London. Met up with Simons Brother and wife and had a lovely chinese in china town.
