I'm currently in the process of booking my hostel in London for when I arrive on July 6th. I'm torn between either staying at The Generator or Piccadilly. I've heard both great things about them, but I don't know which one is better then the other. I know quite a few of you Tpunks have stayed in these hostels, so what is your take? Which one would you reccomend?

London will be my first destination and it's my first time ever travelling alone, if that helps with anything. <--that's cute.

Im not personally stoked about the Generator, but some like it just fine. Here's a thread on the Generator. How long will you be in london?

I stayed at Piccadilly in London and had a great time. Its close to everything and is pretty nice. They just expanded it so ask for the new rooms if u can. They have fire drills which can suck but other than that I like it.
