Sleeping with Strangers: the hostel experience part I

The front entrance of YHA London Central

A 12-minute walk to Oxford Street.

10 minutes to Marleybone High Street.

And just 45 minutes through the heart of London to get to Buckingham Palace.

Yes, including “central” in the name of the hostel I stayed at for seven days while in London was appropriate.

I’m just back from a 2-week trip that included work and pleasure, London and Paris. I stayed in hostels in both cities – two very different hostels.

I will write a post on each so that you have a sense...
