Awesome for one night
Liked: The people there and the staff are awesome. Very nice people.
Disliked: There are many people on less space. So it‘s very personal and it could be cleaner. The atmosphere is kind of alternative. You have to like that kind of hosting. It‘s not for everyone.

Nice friendly hostel for students...
Liked: Friendly staff greeting on arrival to people as they checked in. Facilities were adequate for a back-packer visitor but you do have to be prepared to share and ‘rough it a bit’ if not used to the same. Really appreciated the drying room and kitchen facilities over 3 very soggy days.
Disliked: Bathroom/toilet facilities were small and limited relative to the number of people staying at the hostel. Unfortunately someone using a shower caused a leak through to the reception area but staff did get it cleared relatively quickly. I had not been used to hostel accommodation for some years so found it a bit awkward dealing with sharing 9 other women to the bedroom - but would see that as down to me not the hostel facilities. It is what it sets out to be - basic friendly accommodation and service.

Disappointing

Disappointing
Liked: Location was ok
Disliked: The bedroom was small and dingy, the drying room was tiny, no washing facilities, the kitchen was too small. Overall not the best for a hostel.

Pleasant
Liked: The staff were nice and the bedroom was comfortable. The free tea and coffee were a nice bonus.
Disliked: The 5pm checking wasn't great but they do offer for you to gave a cuppa and wait. The bathrooms were tight and when I went to shower at about 5:30 there was no hot water. The rooms could use a few shelves for luggage storage.
