Guide: East-Side Hostels for Markets and Late Nights

Shoreditch's actual dorm inventory is thin, so this guide splits the decision honestly: Wombat's and St Christopher's keep you east and river-adjacent, while Generator and Clink261 are King's Cross backups with better cross-city transport after a late night. Use it when east London is the plan but a clean hostel choice matters more than a perfect postcode.
